What is a dedicated server?

A dedicated server provides you with optimal performance for all your applications because it allows your owner to have exclusive access to it and its resources. You have full control by tailoring it to fit your business, change configurations of the server, add new software and even add a higher level of security if needed.

How does Dedicated Server Hosting work?

When we lease you a dedicated server (although we lease you the server, it’s all yours to manage) it’s custom-configured to your application, e.g., website, web hosting, database, gaming and video streaming. And it can be more than one – for even better performance capabilities. If that means you’re a bigger (or rapidly growing) business, that’s all the more appealing to go with dedicated server hosting.

Who’s a good fit for ELITE Dedicated Server Hosting?

Agencies, system admins and developers with experience managing a server looking for powerful server capabilities (highly available server for critical uses), and requiring deep server access, complete control and flexible server configurations. Our Dedicated Server Hosting also provides powerful server options with isolated resources to securely run mission critical applications and applications where latency in processing time matters, as well as uptime.

ELITE offers both Self Managed Dedicated Server Hosting and Fully Managed Dedicate Server Hosting, what’s the difference?

Self-Managed Dedicated Server Hosting includes server monitoring of uptime, CPU, RAM and storage, and notifications if issues arise. It also includes optional control panels (cPanel/WHM or Plesk Obsidian Webhost Edition) for easy server administration. Need help troubleshooting? We’ve got real folks waiting to take your call and a complete knowledge library with how-to articles. For expert help (English only), contact our dedicated team to get you going with paid, task-based admin services. Fully Managed Dedicated Server Hosting (English only) is the recommended solution for those who don’t have the time or admin skills to manage dedicated server hosting. And though you’re responsible for the content on the server, our team of experts are here to keep your server online — and running smoothly.

Can I upgrade my VPS hosting account to a dedicated server?

Yes. If you currently have a VPS hosting account with us, you can upgrade to our dedicated hosting at any time by ordering a new server. For fully managed customers, we’ll migrate your data from your current account to your new server. We also offer paid migrations for those who don’t want to migrate their data manually.

Will there be any downtime upgrading my VPS to Dedicated Server Hosting?

Yes, because the upgrade includes a new server purchase. Although the average time for us to provision your new server will likely be a few minutes, it may take up to 24 hours or more. But, if you need your hosting right away, call us at (480) 624-2500 and we’ll do our best to speed things up

How soon will I get my Dedicated Server Hosting?

Although the average time for us to provision your account will likely be within minutes, it may take up to 24 hours or more. But, if you need your hosting right away, call us at (480) 624-2500 and we’ll do our best to speed things up.

What are the additional requirements I should know about?

We recommend you work with your payment provider (e.g., PayPal Checkout, Square Online Checkout and Stripe Checkout) to understand any additional requirements for which you are responsible.

What type of website should not use Dedicated Server Hosting?

A dedicated server can run any type of website. However, unless the site is mission-critical with very high traffic (or using high intensive resource applications), dedicated server hosting will provide more power, but may not be necessary. Other solutions like shared hosting, business hosting or a VPS may be better suited for less resource-intensive needs.

What are bare metal dedicated servers?

Elite Dedicated Server Hosting offers bare metal servers, a single-tenant physical server that is not shared between users, meaning there’s no virtualization technology built-in; the customer is the only one (i.e., “dedicated”) to that server. That allows the user deep-server access, complete control and state-of-the-art hardware/software and flexible server configurations — including SSD and HDD storage options for specific hosting needs.

What are the advantages of having dedicated server hosting?

Dedicated server hosting is used for applications that requires intensive workloads and large amounts of raw processing power, such as: Big data Machine learning Live media streaming Website and application hosting Communication apps Backups and storage Infrastructure virtualization Server clusters Business applications (CRM, ERP, Data analytics software) Online game hosting

How do I get started with Fully Managed Dedicated Server Hosting?

After your purchase, we provide you with a direct phone number for a consultation with a server expert to make sure we understand your needs. Additionally, you’ll get an email welcoming you with additional contact options.

Will I be able to manage Dedicated Server Hosting through a web-based control panel?

Yes, you can install a control panel with selected OS versions. We offer easy-to-use control panels like cPanel/WHM or Plesk Obsidian Web Host Edition (includes WordPress toolkit) available on Linux CentOS.

Does your Dedicated Server Hosting solution offer HDD or SSD NVMe options?

Depending on your requirements, you may choose one of two disk types: HDD and SSD NVMe. HDDs are traditional spinning disks, which provide the highest storage capacities – however, while HDDs offer extremely high capacities, they are not the fastest options. For customers with a high demand on read-/write performance, we now offer SSD NVMe. SSDs are Solid State drives, which are much faster than HDDs by nature because they don’t have any moving parts. To increase performance even further, we offer NVMe SSDs, which use the NVMe interface specification for PCI Express-based solid drives. NVMe drives are not affected by the bottlenecks of the ATA interface – delivering up to 4X better IOPS (Input/Output Operations Per Second) than the fastest SAS option available.

What is RAID and do you offer RAID with your dedicated servers?

Redundant Array of Independent Disks (RAID) is a means for storing data on multiple hard disks, then linking the disks so that the operating system on your server views them as a single entity. Yes, we provide RAID-1 with all of our dedicated server hosting plans.
