== Included with your dedicated server ==
 Bandwidth and unlimited traffic 
Each OVHcloud dedicated server has a minimum public bandwidth of 500 Mbps, with a burst available to absorb occasional peak traffic. Incoming and outgoing traffic is unlimited and free. You also have the option of increasing your bandwidth capacity, if necessary

 vRack physical private network 
Create a dedicated server cluster or hybrid infrastructure, via a high-bandwidth private network across multiple data centers. The vRack private network is included with all of our dedicated servers, except for those from the Rise and Game ranges

 Service Level Agreement 
All of our servers benefit from a service level agreement (SLA), which ranges from 99.90% to 99.99% depending on the range. This guarantees optimal availability for your services

 DDoS protection 

To provide maximum security for your infrastructure DDoS protection is included with your OVHcloud dedicated servers. It ensures the continuity of service of your applications in case of attack

 IPv4 and IPv6 addresses 
Each server has a public IPv4 address and an IPv6 address range

 IPMI and KVM on IP 
The IPMI console can be accessed via the OVHcloud Control Panel or API, and provides you with a direct connection to your dedicated server

 A wide range of operating systems and distributions 
A number of operating systems and distributions are available to install automatically via the OVHcloud Control Panel

🚚 What does the delivery time refer to?

The delivery time is the time it takes for your server to be provided to you. This time period starts once you have paid for your order. It is given as an estimate, and is not a contractual guarantee

Please note that we work hard to deliver products as quickly as possible

==
==

♾ Is bandwidth usage unlimited?

With OVHcloud, you get unlimited, non-metered traffic standard (excluding data centers located in the Asia-Pacific region). However, because the network resources are shared between customers, bandwidth is subject to a fair usage rule (apart from customers who have purchased the guaranteed bandwidth option). To ensure optimal performance for all of our customers, OVHcloud reserves the right to limit a service's outgoing public bandwidth throughput by up to 50%, if it has a detrimental effect on network quality for other users

==
==

🤖 Why is the anti-DDoS protection included as standard?

At OVHcloud, anti-DDoS protection is a mandatory feature with all our solutions. It guarantees optimal security for your servers and infrastructures. It is vital, because:
- an attack on your server will affect your business, which can result in reduced earnings, or an interruption in income
- if access to your website is saturated, it could flood the common networks and affect other customers

What is the difference between the physical vRack private network and a virtual private network?

OVHcloud dedicated servers come with two physical network cards*. One is dedicated to the public network (internet) and the other is reserved for the private network. The private network enables your different services to communicate with one another via a dedicated channel, regardless of their location. You get increased flexibility in managing your network, without compromizing the availability of your services

Unlike a physical private network, a virtual private network is a sub-division of the public bandwidth allocated to your server

*Scale and High Grade servers have four network cards

🏭 How do I choose my data center?

With OVHcloud, you select your data center. We recommend choosing a data center that is as close as possible geographically to your main customer and user base

 What is a dedicated server? 
A dedicated server, or computing server, is a server where all the physical resources of the machine are available. Unlike a virtual server, which uses a portion of the resources to run its virtualisation technology, a dedicated server allows you to benefit from all of the machine’s available RAM, storage, and computing power. With cloud computing, we can also define this type of solution as "bare metal", highlighting the physical availability of the machine’s resources, in contrast to standard solutions based on virtual instances

 Which dedicated server should you choose? 
The configurations used for our dedicated hosting solution are designed to suit professional needs. Depending on your usage, you might need a configuration with more RAM, bigger storage space, or a higher processing capacity. Furthermore, the different OVHcloud dedicated server ranges are distinguished by their bandwidth capacity and range of associated services. You can also get anti-DDoS protection adapted for online gaming, a private network (vRack) with up to 10 Gb/s to allow you to connect your dedicated server to your infrastructure, or even hardware RAID. Choose the dedicated server that fits your needs

 Cloud, shared hosting, or a dedicated server? 
There are two main factors that make a dedicated server different from a cloud instance. Firstly, the machine's raw performance is different: there is no virtualisation layer consuming resources on a dedicated server, so you are guaranteed full use of the physical resources. The second difference concerns the level of server administration. With a dedicated server, you manage everything from its configuration to the data hosted on it, and you are also responsible for ensuring that it is secure. It will therefore give you the option of a more advanced installation, which is essential for the use of certain business applications (for example). The main benefit of a dedicated solution is the total freedom you enjoy as a user. However, if you would like to avoid technical management and concentrate solely on your web project, then OVHcloud Public Cloud instances are the best solution for you. Just need to build a simple website? Take a look at our shared hosting solutions, which offer you a hosting platform at an unbeatable cost, with the configuration fully managed by OVHcloud

 What can a dedicated server be used for? 
There are many uses for a dedicated server: big data, machine learning, website and application, backup and storage, infrastructure virtualization, server clusters, business applications (CRM, ERP)and even online game hosting. This is why we offer several different dedicated server ranges, each of which are designed for a specific set of needs. Our sales and support teams will help you with your project, and can offer expert advice on which server to choose.
