Dedicated Servers Brighton

Overview

Dedicated Servers in Brighton - What to Expect

Dedicated servers in Brighton give you bare-metal performance - no hypervisor overhead, no shared CPU, no virtualisation tax. Traffic reaches Brighton from our Newcastle datacenter via AS212868 and direct LINX peering - keeping domestic traffic on domestic paths. Servers are available with Intel Xeon and AMD Ryzen processors, up to 512GB DDR4 ECC RAM, and NVMe Gen4 storage in RAID-10 configuration. IPMI out-of-band management is included on every server, so remote reboots and OS reinstalls don't require an engineer visit.

Hardware on Glitch dedicated server plans includes Intel Xeon and AMD Ryzen options with DDR4 ECC RAM configurations up to 512 GB and NVMe Gen4 storage in RAID configurations. Each server ships with a 1Gbps unmetered port as standard, with a 10Gbps burst port available as an upgrade for transfer-heavy workloads.

The network operates through AS212868 with direct LINX and LONAP peering and NTT/GTT Tier-1 transit, delivering consistent low-latency paths to UK ISPs and international destinations. Corero Smartwall inline DDoS mitigation protects every server at the network edge without requiring a separate scrubbing appliance or additional monthly charge.

Managed and unmanaged configurations are available. Unmanaged servers ship with a base OS install and full root access. Managed plans add proactive monitoring, OS patching, and 24/7 emergency response. Full hardware specifications and pricing are on the dedicated servers page.

External resources: LINX (London Internet Exchange) and RIPE NCC (European IP registry).

FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

What dedicated server specification suits Brighton's digital media and video production workloads?

Brighton's digital media sector - video production, post-production houses, broadcast streaming services, and creative agencies - runs workloads that demand bare-metal performance: video transcoding, large file storage, and media asset management systems that degrade under hypervisor overhead. Glitch dedicated servers on Intel Xeon and AMD Ryzen platforms with 1Gbps ports with a 10Gbps burst upgrade available, NVMe Gen4 storage, and large RAM configurations handle these workloads without the throttling and resource contention that cloud VPS introduces during sustained rendering jobs.

Can Brighton fintech and payments companies use Glitch dedicated servers to meet PCI DSS and FCA requirements?

Yes. Glitch dedicated servers run exclusively on hardware you rent in a UK facility under AS212868, with no cross-tenant data proximity and no data transiting non-UK infrastructure. For Brighton payment processors, fintech platforms, and Amex operations needing PCI DSS or FCA outsourcing documentation, we provide full written documentation of hardware location, network path, and power source. Dedicated hosting provides the clearest data boundary for PCI DSS cardholder data environment scoping - a single physical server with documented UK location is straightforward to declare in QSA assessments.

Why do Brighton e-commerce and retail businesses choose dedicated servers over shared hosting?

Brighton's retail and e-commerce sector faces traffic spikes around promotions and seasonal peaks that shared hosting cannot absorb without throttling. Glitch dedicated servers provide consistent performance regardless of what other tenants are doing, with 1Gbps ports with a 10Gbps burst upgrade available, NVMe Gen4 storage for fast database reads, and Corero Smartwall inline DDoS protection that handles promotional traffic spikes without manual intervention. Fixed monthly pricing also simplifies cost modelling for e-commerce businesses that have outgrown shared or VPS plans.
