CAPACITY FACTORS

What Makes a Dedicated Server High-Bandwidth?

High-bandwidth dedicated servers pair committed public capacity with burst egress and high-speed private networking. Advanced Hosting runs both single bare-metal servers and large multi-node clusters, with traffic distributed across the fleet.

High-Capacity Server Ports

Servers connect through 4×25 Gbps aggregated ports.

Aggregated Cluster Egress

Public egress bandwidth can be aggregated across every node in a cluster.

Unmetered Private Traffic

Traffic inside your private network is unmetered and included.

Scalable Inter-Site Capacity

100 Gbps dark fiber links between sites can be upgraded to 400 Gbps.
INTERNAL NETWORKING

High-Capacity Private Networking Between Servers

Keep server-to-server traffic on private VLANs built for east-west workloads, clustering, and large bare metal environments.

  • Customer-specific VLANs: Dedicated VLANs isolate your environment end-to-end.
  • Built for east-west traffic: Optimized for east-west traffic between servers and across clusters.
  • VXLAN-ready networking: VLANs are provisioned VXLAN-ready for overlay networking.
CONNECTIVITY FOUNDATION

The Network Behind High-Bandwidth Dedicated Servers

Advanced Hosting combines carrier-neutral connectivity, independent upstream transit, direct IX peering, and redundant paths to carry high-throughput traffic without contention.

Carrier-Neutral Connectivity

Multiple independent upstream providers across our Amsterdam facilities.

Tier-1 network access

Connectivity through Tier-1 carriers and major internet exchanges.

Redundant Bandwidth

Every link is provisioned with full redundancy; a single failure never interrupts service. 

Dual Optical Rings

Three data centers within our Amsterdam footprint are interconnected over redundant optical rings.

Ready-to-Deploy Dedicated Servers
Choose from available bare-metal server configurations or request a custom build around your traffic, hardware, and network requirements. Standard configurations list CPU, RAM, storage, traffic allowance, and monthly price; public and private capacity is sized to the deployment.

Stop Paying for Hype. When Older Servers Make Much Better Business Sense 

Most enterprise on-premises servers operate at just 12% to 18% of capacity on average. Buying new-generation compute platforms for routine workloads often delivers diminishing returns. Certified previous-generation hardware can meet those needs at a much lower CapEx – sometimes up to 70% lower. At the same time, enterprise hardware spending is rising far faster than […]

FAQ

Answering All Your Questions

What is a high-bandwidth dedicated server?

A high-bandwidth dedicated server combines bare-metal hardware with dedicated network capacity for applications that need to move large volumes of traffic. Advanced Hosting provides guaranteed public channel width, burst egress, and high-capacity private networking for dedicated servers.

What public network speeds are available?

Public connectivity ranges from 1 to 100 Gbps per server or per rack. Egress can burst above the committed rate up to the 100 Gbps port ceiling.

Is bandwidth guaranteed?

Yes. Public bandwidth is committed and non-oversubscribed – the committed rate holds regardless of traffic volume.

Can my server burst beyond its guaranteed bandwidth?

Yes. Egress bursts above the committed rate up to the 100 Gbps port capacity for workloads with variable peaks.

How much private network capacity is available?

Private connectivity is available up to 400 Gbps on demand.

Is private network traffic metered?

Traffic within your private network is unmetered and included.

Can bandwidth be aggregated across multiple dedicated servers?

Yes. Public egress aggregates across every node in a cluster.

Can I connect dedicated servers over a private network?

Yes. Servers run on customer-specific VLANs provisioned VXLAN-ready, with private capacity up to 400 Gbps aggregated on demand.

What network interfaces connect the servers?

The Amsterdam fabric provides 4×25 Gbps aggregated server ports, dual 4×100 Gbps spine uplinks, and 100 Gbps inter-site dark fiber upgradeable to 400 Gbps.

Which internet exchanges are available?

Advanced Hosting provides access to AMS-IX, DE-CIX, and NL-IX.

How are DDoS attacks handled?

Volumetric attacks are mitigated at the network core; application-layer scrubbing is supported via your own mitigator or CDN in front, enabled by BYO IP and BGP.

Can I bring my own IP addresses?

Yes. Use Advanced Hosting IP addresses or bring your own /24 or larger subnet.

Can high-bandwidth deployments scale beyond one server?

Yes. Environments scale horizontally by adding nodes, extending private networks, and aggregating public egress.

Can I customize the network configuration?

Yes. CPU, RAM, storage, and network layouts can be tailored around the application and deployment requirements.
