What is a dedicated server ?

A dedicated server refers to a computing machine that offers all of its resources without sharing with others. In contrast to a virtual server, it allocates its entire processing power, memory, and storage solely to a single user. This setup is frequently utilized in various scenarios, particularly in cloud computing, for "bare metal" services that ensure complete access to the physical resources of the server.

How does a dedicated server work ?

Each dedicated server is operated through a console that enables you to set up your applications, enhance security, and monitor performance in real-time. For comprehensive details, check our ScalewayDocs.

What distinguishes a dedicated server from shared hosting ?

Unlike shared hosting, which distributes a server’s resources among several clients, a dedicated server is entirely yours, ensuring superior performance and enhanced security.

Why choose a dedicated server ?

Dedicated servers are ideal for businesses that require substantial processing power, increased security, and personalized management, allowing precise adjustments to meet your technical requirements.

How to rent a dedicated server ?

Selecting and configuring your dedicated server at Scaleway is straightforward: choose the specifications that suit your needs while benefiting from our commitment to reduce environmental impact. For further details, please refer to our page on environmental responsibility.

How to set up a dedicated server ?

You can follow a step-by-step guide for installing your server available on ScalewayDocs, which provides comprehensive support to effectively establish and launch your server based on your criteria.

The Dedibox combines reliability, exceptional performance, and excellent value, making it perfectly suited for demanding professionals.

What is the difference between a dedicated server and a VPS ?

A VPS is a more affordable option that shares a server’s physical resources among many users, while a dedicated server offers exclusive resources for unmatched performance.
