Browse dedicated server configurations — Chicago, Los Angeles & Ashburn

A dedicated server is a physical machine where every resource — CPU, RAM, storage, and bandwidth — is allocated entirely to one client. There’s no sharing with other users, which means consistent performance and stronger isolation from security threats.

Your application runs on enterprise-grade bare-metal hardware housed in one of GigeNET’s three US data centers. You get full access to the machine’s resources, with GigeNET managing the physical infrastructure, power, cooling, and network connectivity underneath.

The main distinction is managed vs. unmanaged. With a managed server, GigeNET handles OS maintenance, security patching, and monitoring. With an unmanaged server, you have full root access and control — GigeNET handles hardware and network only. View management plans →

High-traffic websites, SaaS platforms, large databases, game servers, financial applications, virtualization hosts, and any workload where performance, isolation, or compliance requirements rule out shared infrastructure.

On a shared server, CPU, RAM, and storage are split across many customers — your performance depends on what your neighbors are doing. On a dedicated server, the entire machine is yours. No resource contention, no noisy neighbors, no surprises.

Yes — in two important ways. First, your environment is isolated, so vulnerabilities from other tenants can’t affect you. Second, you control what software runs on the machine.

Yes. Managed plans cover OS and software maintenance, security patching, performance monitoring, and technical support for your server environment — so your team stays focused on your application rather than the infrastructure. Unmanaged plans give you full root access with GigeNET handling everything at the hardware and network layer. View managed server plans →
