    To deploy a new dedicated server is time consuming and requires a significant amount of work. Hardware must be selected and installed then racked and plugged into power and network. Next is software installation. Firstly the operating system must be installed, then system upgrades and tweaks must be made. Individual software applications also need to be installed, updated and configured. This entire process can take days or weeks depending on the level of complexity.
    Cloud Billing and Fees
    Dedicated Billing and Fees
    GigeNET Cloud Servers are charged by the hour and you only pay for what you use. This means that servers can be deployed and destroyed within an hour and you will only be charged a few cents the time the Cloud Server was active.

    Deploying a dedicated server typically requires a setup fee or some sort of monthly/yearly contract. This means that if you want to deploy a new server for some quick testing or to accomodate a spike in load, you will be locked into paying for the server for longer than you needed it. This process can be very costly and limiting.

    With traditional dedicated servers adding and removing resources can be very challenging, take a long time and cause downtime while your server is being modified. Upgrading a dedicated server requires building a new server, installing software, upgrading software, post installation procedures and then final copy of your old server data to the new server. The process can produce many errors along the way and can take hours or days to complete.
    Cloud Horizontal Scalling
    Dedicated Horizontal Scalling
    Scalling your Cloud Server horizontally by load balancing across multiple web-server front ends can be easily achieved with our templating feature. Simply create a template of your web server front end to create an identical front end Cloud Server node that can be used for load balancing. Templating can also be used to provision a new identical Cloud Server for testing purposes. Clone a new Cloud Server and test a code change without affecting your original Cloud Server!

    With a dedicated server requires building a new server, installing all required software and finally copying all customer data to the new hardware. This can take days to accomplish and can be very costly because it requires the user to lease redundant hardware on contract for months or even years.
