Frequently Asked Questions
What is a dedicated host?
A dedicated host provides you with exclusive access to an entire physical server. This means the server's resources are not shared with any other customers, offering enhanced performance, security, and compliance.
What kind of workloads are best suited for a dedicated host?
Dedicated hosts are ideal for performance-sensitive applications, large databases, virtual desktop infrastructure (VDI), and workloads that have strict compliance or data isolation requirements.
How does this differ from a virtual machine?
A virtual machine runs on shared physical hardware, though it is isolated from other VMs. A dedicated host gives you the entire physical server, offering a higher level of control and performance assurance.
