Dedicated Server Overview
A Dedicated Server gives you access to a full physical server assigned to your service.
This section helps you understand how Dedicated Server ordering, management, billing, and troubleshooting work in PerLod.
What a Dedicated Server is
Unlike a virtual server environment, a Dedicated Server is based on physical hardware allocated to your service.
This makes it suitable for workloads that need:
- dedicated hardware resources
- more predictable performance
- stronger isolation
- larger compute or storage capacity
- deeper control over the server environment
Common use cases
Dedicated Servers are commonly used for:
- high-traffic websites and applications
- backend infrastructure
- databases
- virtualization workloads
- game servers
- storage-heavy workloads
- business-critical services
- custom hosting environments
The right server depends on your workload, resource requirements, preferred location, and operational goals.
How the Dedicated Server flow works
The general flow is:
- start from the main Dedicated Server page or a location-based page
- filter and compare available server options
- select a server
- configure the order
- review the order
- complete payment
- manage the active service in Dash
The website is used for browsing and ordering. Dash is used for managing the server after provisioning.

- billing and lifecycle handling
- troubleshooting common issues
Before you order
Before choosing a server, it helps to review:
- CPU requirements
- memory requirements
- storage capacity
- storage type
- bandwidth expectations
- preferred location
- operating system requirements
- workload type
Choosing the right server early helps reduce unnecessary changes later.
