Why choose Dedicated Server Instances instead of Bare-Metal Servers? Lets first define a dedicated instance:<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
A dedicated instance<\/a> it is a dedicated server deployed in cloud and have the same specifications like a bare-metal:\u00a0dedicated CPU,\u00a0SSD storage and\u00a0RAM memory.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
\"\"<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
It appears to the end-user and behaves exactly like a bare but it is deployed directly in Cloud and for that\u00a0reason it has several advantages:<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
– Instant activation;<\/div>\n
– Easy system reinstall with OS templates or by using the vnc console\u00a0with your own uploaded custom ISO file;<\/div>\n
– Easy upgrades, migrations or hardware modifications, with minimum or\u00a0no downtime at all;<\/div>\n
– Cheaper licenses (for example a cpanel license is only 15 euro instead\u00a0of 35 euros like you would pay for a bare-metal);<\/div>\n
– The disk is a block device from our raid protected SSD storage, which\u00a0improves the performance(IOps & read\/write speed) and also the fault tolerance;<\/div>\n
– Other features at request: additional block storage, private networking(internal ips), 1-click ssh-key.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
At Virtono<\/a> we no longer provide Bare-Metal Dedicated Servers as a current offer on our website, but they could be\u00a0provisioned if you ask this specifically from our contact form<\/a>.<\/div>\n
