Dedicated Servers, built to your specification
Where a Cloud Server stops being the right shape, we build you the machine. Intel Xeon, ECC memory, NVMe or HDD.
AS209179 · single-tenant hardware · root and out-of-band access
AFRICLOUD Dedicated Servers give you an entire physical machine, built to your specification in South Africa, Nigeria or Portugal. Dell PowerEdge hardware with Intel Xeon processors, ECC memory and NVMe or HDD storage. Need to buy a Dedicated Server with Bitcoin? We accept 300+ cryptocurrencies alongside card and PayPal. Every server includes iDRAC remote management, layered DDoS defence and your choice of Linux OS template, and once it is live you run it yourself from the dashboard: power, reinstall, console and live telemetry. Dedicated Server hosting on our own network, AS209179.
When Bare Metal is the right move
The step up from your largest Cloud Server
When you have outgrown our largest Cloud Server, Bare Metal is the next size: the same account, the same dashboard, the same support desk, on a machine built for you.
Single-tenant by definition
The hardware is yours alone, which is what regulated workloads usually need to demonstrate. Pair it with the region that matches your obligation: Lagos for Nigerian data, Johannesburg for South African data, Lisbon for the EU. Specific compliance requires individual legal assessment.
Economics at sustained load
At constant high utilisation, a dedicated machine gives you more work for the money than scaling Cloud Servers to match it. If your load is spiky, a Cloud Server is still the better buy, and we will tell you so.
Yours to run from day one
Once the build is handed over you manage it from the dashboard: power control, OS reinstall, remote console and live hardware telemetry. No ticket required for routine work.
Hardware RAID
Enterprise RAID controllers with battery-backed cache for data protection and performance. Configure RAID0, RAID1, RAID5, RAID10, or JBOD to match your workload requirements.
Edge Filtering & DDoS Defence
Every Dedicated Server sits behind our layered edge defence: flood and traffic-anomaly detection with alerting, anti-spoofing and amplification filtering. Combined with SSH key injection and an activity log of every action on your server and account, visible in the dashboard.
Built For
High-Performance Databases
Run PostgreSQL, MySQL, or MongoDB on dedicated hardware for maximum IOPS and consistent latency. No virtualisation overhead means predictable performance.
- Consistent I/O performance
- Full NVMe bandwidth
- Consistent performance under sustained load
- Hardware RAID for data protection
Compute-Intensive Workloads
Video rendering, machine learning inference, scientific simulations, and compilation farms that need every cycle of processing power.
- Intel Xeon multi-core processors
- High-capacity ECC memory
- Full CPU frequency
- No hypervisor overhead
Compliance & Isolation
Workloads that must demonstrate physical hardware isolation. Single-tenant machines in the region your obligation points to. Specific compliance requires individual legal assessment.
- Physical hardware isolation
- Encrypt your disks with the tools of your choice
- SSH key injection
- Activity log of every action, in your dashboard
