Support APIs, customer-facing apps, downloads, and platform traffic when transfer volume is a major cost driver.

Network and Control

Test routes, confirm location, and control the
server remotely

For high-bandwidth workloads, route quality, location, traffic visibility, and recovery access can matter as much as the port speed.

Network visibility and server control

Network visibility and server control

  • IPMI/KVM remote server access
  • Linux and Windows operating system options
  • Private networking and edge firewall options where available
  • DDoS protection included on eligible servers
Deployment note: in-stock servers can be ordered from live inventory. Custom builds, bulk orders, special storage layouts, and network-specific deployments may require additional provisioning time.
Location planning

Location planning

Choose the data center closest to your audience and validate routes before ordering when latency, international reach, or throughput consistency matters.

  • Use Looking Glass to compare latency and routes before selecting a location.
  • Consider Los Angeles or Dallas when Asia-Pacific reach is important.
  • Use private networking or quote path for multi-server and multi-location deployments.
Network Performance Options

Low-latency routing, Anycast, and private networking

FAQ

Questions to answer before ordering 10Gbps

These answers cover the buying concerns that are not fully answered by inventory alone: traffic fit, bottlenecks, private networking, routing, scaling, and when to request a custom quote.

1

Is 10Gbps unmetered right for sustained traffic?

It is a strong fit when your workload moves large amounts of outbound traffic every month and predictable bandwidth cost matters. Common examples include CDN origin, streaming, game hosting, backups, hosting providers, and public application traffic.

2

What should I verify before moving production traffic?

Check the data center location, network route quality, CPU profile, storage type, operating system, and whether the workload needs private networking, DDoS protection, or a custom deployment plan.

3

How do I know if my application can actually use 10Gbps?

Port speed alone does not guarantee application throughput. Real performance depends on CPU, storage I/O, operating system tuning, network stack, and application design. Test routes and confirm your application can sustain the expected transfer rate.

4

How should I choose between budget and higher-capacity hardware?

Choose entry hardware for bandwidth-heavy tasks with moderate CPU demand, such as backups or file delivery. Choose performance or high-capacity hardware when the workload also needs more CPU, memory, databases, virtualization, or multiple services on one server.

5

When should I request a custom quote instead of ordering from live inventory?

Use live inventory for standard single-server orders. Request a custom quote when you need multiple 10Gbps servers, private VLANs, custom storage, higher DDoS requirements, Anycast, APLLR, or multi-location planning.

6

Can private networking help reduce public bandwidth usage?

Yes, where available. Private networking can keep replication, backup, database, and application-tier traffic off the public network, which is useful for multi-server architectures and can reduce public transfer usage.

7

What matters most for Asia-Pacific users?

Location alone is not enough. Route quality matters. Los Angeles and Dallas deployments may be paired with APLLR for Asia-Pacific reach, but you should test latency and routes with Looking Glass before ordering.

8

Can storage become the bottleneck on a 10Gbps server?

Yes. A 10Gbps port can move traffic faster than some disks or storage layouts can read or write. Choose SSD, NVMe, or higher-capacity storage layouts when the workload requires sustained disk throughput.

9

What if one 10Gbps server is not enough later?

Start with live inventory when one server fits the workload. For growth, Psychz can support larger designs such as multiple 10Gbps servers, private networking, Anycast, APLLR, custom storage, and multi-location deployments.
