Hybrid 7950x vs Dedicated Servers

Choosing the right server type is crucial for any business or personal project requiring high-performance hosting. While dedicated servers have traditionally been the go-to for maximum power and control, Virtual Dedicated Servers (VDS) or Hybrid Servers offer an incredible alternative—delivering dedicated-like performance without the hefty price tag. At Hosteons, our Ryzen 7950x-based Hybrid Servers come equipped with NVMe disks, providing a superior balance of performance and cost-effectiveness that often outshines traditional Intel Xeon dedicated servers.

VDS vs. Dedicated Servers: Understanding the Difference

A VDS/Hybrid Server is essentially a high-performance VPS, offering isolated resources similar to a dedicated server. However, unlike dedicated servers, where a single user occupies the entire hardware, VDS uses powerful virtualization technology to create dedicated environments within the server. This setup allows VDS users to benefit from dedicated server-level resources at a fraction of the cost.

Advantages of Using a Ryzen 7950x-Based Hybrid Server with NVMe Disks

Hosteons has carefully designed our Ryzen 7950x Hybrid Servers to deliver high performance and flexibility, perfect for applications with demanding resource requirements. Here’s how our Ryzen 7950x Hybrid Servers outperform typical Intel Xeon-based dedicated servers:

  • Superior Processing Power: Ryzen 7950x processors offer higher single-threaded and multi-threaded performance compared to many Intel Xeon CPUs, making them ideal for both web hosting and resource-intensive applications.
  • Enhanced Disk Performance: NVMe disks are several times faster than traditional SSDs, allowing for quicker data read/write speeds, which improves application response times and overall performance.
  • Cost Efficiency: With our VDS offerings, you gain similar performance to a dedicated server at a much lower price, ensuring that you get excellent value for your investment.

Key Benefits of Hosteons’ VDS/Hybrid Servers

  1. One-Click OS Reinstallation
    Managing and experimenting with different OS configurations has never been easier. With a single click, you can reinstall your OS, saving time and effort typically needed for reinstallation on dedicated servers.
  2. One-Click Backups/Snapshots
    Data protection is vital, and with Hosteons’ VDS, you can create backups and snapshots instantly, allowing you to revert to previous states easily if needed.
  3. Instant Activation
    Our Hybrid Servers are activated instantly, so you don’t have to wait to get started. Immediate access to server resources helps you quickly set up and launch your applications.
  4. Cost-Effective Solution
    With Hosteons’ VDS, you get dedicated-like performance at a fraction of the cost. This is ideal for users seeking power-packed hosting without a heavy financial commitment.
  5. Performance on Par with Dedicated Servers
    Equipped with Ryzen 7950x processors and NVMe disks, Hosteons’ Hybrid Servers are optimized to offer equal or even better performance than many dedicated servers, especially those using older Intel Xeon architectures.
  6. Custom OS Installation
    Need a specific OS? Our VPS control panel allows you to upload and install your own ISO, giving you complete control over your server environment.
  7. RDNS Control
    Hosteons provides you with RDNS control, empowering you to manage reverse DNS records for better email deliverability and SEO benefits.

Is a Hybrid Server Right for You?

Whether you’re running a high-traffic website, handling large databases, or developing custom applications, Hosteons’ Ryzen 7950x-based VDS is a powerful, flexible, and budget-friendly choice. Hybrid Servers deliver similar control and power to dedicated servers but with added convenience and features suited for modern needs.

In today’s digital landscape, data is the backbone of any online presence, whether you’re managing a personal blog, an eCommerce website, or a mission-critical application. For VPS (Virtual Private Server) users, ensuring that data is safe, secure, and recoverable is more than just a precaution—it’s essential for maintaining uptime, protecting business continuity, and safeguarding user trust. At Hosteons, we understand this need, which is why we offer free backups and snapshots with our VPS and Hybrid Dedicated Server hosting. Here’s why having regular backups is vital and how Hosteons is here to support you.

Why Are Backups Essential for VPS Hosting?

  1. Data Protection Against Cyber Threats Cyberattacks and ransomware threats are on the rise, and VPS servers are a prime target for malicious actors. Regular backups can safeguard your data, allowing you to recover quickly in case of an attack. With Hosteons’ free backup services, your data remains protected without additional cost, ensuring your digital assets are always safe.
  2. Minimizing Downtime and Recovery Time For websites or applications, downtime is detrimental—not only for revenue but also for user trust. Backups allow for quick recovery in the event of server failures, data corruption, or accidental deletions, reducing downtime significantly. Hosteons’ backup solutions are designed to minimize the time needed to restore operations, keeping your business running smoothly.
  3. Testing and Development Many developers and IT teams use VPS environments for testing and development. Regular backups allow you to restore your server to a previous state, making it easy to troubleshoot, test configurations, or revert changes without risk.
  4. Compliance and Data Integrity Depending on your industry, you may need to retain certain data for legal or compliance reasons. Backups offer a simple way to ensure data is maintained securely, helping your business meet regulatory requirements.

Leave a Comment on One more Datacentre Location Being Added in Salt Lake City

As posted in our previous POST, that how and we had to do emergency migration of all our VPS Nodes and Shared Web Hosting, but now once all the data has been migrated, we even need to utilise our Colocated Servers that were there with Dedipath, today we were provided access and were able to pickup our Servers from their Los Angeles, location, though other location is still pending, but to utilise these servers, we have taken a full 42U RACK in Salt Lake City, this is different from our current Salt Lake City Datacentre, this location also has very good network, along with DDOS Protection provided by PATH. This new location has very good network globally including China and Asia.

These servers just landed at the new facility in Salt Lake City, we plan to use these servers for our regular Ryzen VPS nodes as well to offer Virtual Dedicated Server, i.e. with Dedicated CPU Cores and all resource, with these package you will be able to max out your CPU without any restricitons

We will post an update about once its ready for production, hopefully in next 3-4 days

Some major FREE Upgrades coming soon to Budget Gigabit KVM VPS

Leave a Comment on Some major FREE Upgrades coming soon to Budget Gigabit KVM VPS

We have been constantly trying to improve and upgrade quality of our services and now we are doing one more major upgrade to our Budget Gigabit KVM VPS, after this upgrade even our Budget KVM VPS will performa like Premium VPS:

1) Retiring all our AMD Opteron VPS Nodes and upgrading to Intel E5 based Nodes with same RAID 10 SSD Drives (these nodes will be hosting almost half the number of VPS on them compared to our old VPS Nodes)

2) Upgrade VPS Node Port from 1 Gbps to 10 Gbps, this will improve network performance a lot.

Moreover we would like to inform all our Legacy 100 Mbps unmetered VPS clients that since we are now upgrading server port to 10Gbps, we will be strictly enforcing our Acceptable Usage Policy to avoid any bandwidth abuse, because it affects performance of all other VPS on the same node. We have found a lot of Unmetered VPS users using upto 50 TB per month on 100 Mbps Port, which clearly means that these VPS were using more then 100 Mbps 24×7 (yes it happens sometimes, traffic shaping does not work 100% accurately on VPS Nodes), we are rate limiting such VPS to 10 Mbps to avoid further abuse and to avoid of quality of service going down for our other clients, though if such user wants to switch to our Gigabit KVM VPS packages, just submit a support ticket we will do it. Moreover if you are on 100 Mbps Legacy package and if you are not abuser and following our Acceptable Usage Policy you can continue to use your VPS without issues and won’t find any kind of cap on your network. Most of these Bandwidth abusers appear to be commercial VPN/Proxy providers which is already against our Terms of Service, so if we find good proof that you are using it for commercial VPN/Proxy your services will be terminated (it does not matter if you are on unmetered or metered plan, but we don’t allow commercial vpn/proxy providers on our network)

We have lots of VPS nodes so this whole process will take almost 1 month or may be even more, but we are planning to start this process within next 3-4 days. This is how we have planned:

1) We will add new VPS nodes to same network as our current VPS Nodes (on 1 Gbps Port) then we will migrate all VPS from old VPS nodes to new VPS nodes, there will be no data loss or IP change, but you will experience downtime of few minutes usually less than 10 minutes.

2) Once VPS are migrated to new nodes, we will have to shutdown the VPS nodes and physically move them to the RACK with 10 Gbps network/switch, this migration can take 1-2 hour, as it involves shutting down vps nodes, physically UNRACK the VPS Node from old RACK and move it to the new RACK and plugin all cables, then route the IP ranges to the new switch/RACK and booting all the VPS nodes back online.

But once this done you will experience much better network performance as well as CPU performance, overall quality of VPS will improve a lot.

We will be doing this across all our locations – Los Angeles, New York, Las Vegas, Jacksonville.

We will be even starting Budget Gigabit VPS Service in Dallas soon, since this will be a new node, we will start it with 10Gbps Port

We will email all clients about it before we start this migration.

For regular update on this upgrade kindly bookmark this link https://my.hosteons.com/announcements/217/Some-major-FREE-Upgrades-coming-soon-to-our-Budget-Gigabit-KVM-VPS.html as we will be posting future updates about this upgrade on above post

What’s happing at Hosteons ? So many changes ?

Leave a Comment on What’s happing at Hosteons ? So many changes ?

2020 has been a crazy year for everybody all over the globe, but we at Hosteons have been working behind the scenes to bring new services, service upgrades, server upgrades, and what not.

Here is what’s new with Hosteons:

Premium Ryzen VPS:

We have launched a Premium Range of Ryzen based KVM VPS in two locations – Los Angeles and Dallas (More locations coming soon). Ryzen CPU along with NVME Drives takes your VPS experience to a different level as these are very very fast CPU along with super fast NVME Drives it just makes you feel like as if you are using a Super Fast Dedicated Server with ease of singing a VPS. Our Ryzen VPS Nodes are connected to 10Gbps network instead of our regular 1 Gbps Network to even make your network lightning fast.

Direct Admin Switch:

Due to constant price increase by cPanel we decided to even switch to Direct Admin for our shared web hosting and reseller web hosting and we even took the opportunity to even switch our web server from Apache to Lite Speed along with Kernel Care for reboot less updates, Cloud Linux for stable hosting experience and even more secure with CageFS implementation. We even added Imunify to it to make sure all sites on the server malware free. Not only this now we are using RAID 10 SSD instead of normal HDD for even faster websites. We are now even taking offsite backups every alternate day.

So here are some of the new features of our Shared Web Hosting and Reseller Web Hosting:

  1. Direct Admin Control Panel
  2. Lite Speed Web Server for ultra fast websites
  3. CloudLinux for Stable and Secure Web Hosting
  4. Imunify for Malware and Virus Free Hosting
  5. KernelCare for Rebootless updates hence basically services with no downtime
  6. RAID 10 SSD Based Storage for ultra fast disk access and very fast websites
  7. Regular backups just in case if you ever want to restore your data.
  8. 24×7 Support – We understand how important your website is for you hence we have 24×7 support

These are so many features and benefits not possible to mention all of them in a single article.

Discontinued 100 Mbps KVM VPS:

We have discontinued 100 Mbps Unmetered KVM VPS and instead of started offering Gigabit VPS as we noticed now when 100 Mbps connectivity is very common even in a typical household broadband, so 100 Mbps on a server is not enough, moreover we had more reasons to make this decision like when we were offering 100 Mbps Unmetered VPS even a few abusive or even compromised 100 Mbps VPS could make the network experience bad for other VPS users on the VPS node and since we did not wanted to compromise on quality of our services, we made this tough decision. Though we are not terminating existing 100 Mbps VPS users, they can continue to use their 100 Mbps VPS as long as they keep renewing and even option to upgrade to Gigabit VPS is open for them.

Also new nodes that we are adding for Gigabit VPS are now on 10 Gbps Port, very soon we will upgrade, all our VPS nodes (those nodes will only have Gigabit VPS not 100 Mbps unmetered VPS)

Migration from SolusVM to Virtualizor:

SolusVM is a good VPS control panel but it’s been lacking lots of features that were available in Virtualizor or where were very much needed, hence we even switch from SolusVM to Virtualizor, it wasn’t issue to switch but we still did it with help of very helpful team of Virtualizor.

Some of the new features which were not available until in our VPS control panel will be available now, like:

  1. Custom ISO upload – Now if you need to install an OS that’s not already available in our VPS templates you need not worry, just login to your VPS control panel and you can upload your own ISO and install your own OS, no need to even submit a ticket to do so.
  2. Until now we had to shutdown or suspend VPS of CPU abusive users, but now we can simply cap or limit their CPU usage to make sure experience of other VPS users is not affected and it even avoids downtime for VPS users whose CPU usage goes out of control (usually it’s due to some buggy software)
  3. Complete Integration with our billing system, so now you even don’t need to login to VPS control panel separately, you can mange most of the things directly from Client Porta/Billing/Helpdesk
  4. Support for Block Storage (We plan to provide block storage soon, but lack of support in SolusVM was our biggest hurdle, but now we have this option available)

There are many more features to list in a single article.

Very soon even daily backups will be available with our Premium Ryzen VPS, we will send out an email once it’s available.
