About This Feature
Private Cloud Hosting in the UK from Glitch Servers provides scalable cloud infrastructure on dedicated AMD hardware with NVMe storage - backed by AMD Ryzen hardware, NVMe Gen4 storage, and UK-native routing through AS212868. A private cloud occupies the space between a public cloud and a dedicated server: you get cloud-style orchestration - instant VM provisioning, automated snapshots, software-defined networking - running on hardware that no other customer shares. Our UK private cloud infrastructure uses Intel Xeon processors, DDR5 RAM, and enterprise NVMe storage in dedicated nodes allocated entirely to your organisation. Ideal for businesses with data residency requirements, compliance obligations (PCI-DSS, ISO 27001, NHS DSP Toolkit), or workloads that cannot tolerate noisy-neighbour effects from co-tenanted hypervisors.
Performance on Glitch cloud server plans comes from AMD Ryzen 9 7950X processors with DDR5 RAM and NVMe Gen4 storage - hardware that delivers consistent compute without the variable performance of oversold multi-tenant cloud environments. KVM virtualisation provides hardware-level isolation with fixed vCPU allocation, so neighbouring tenants cannot affect your workload's throughput.
Glitch Servers operates AS212868 with direct peering at LINX and LONAP, routing traffic on UK-native paths to major ISPs including BT, Virgin Media, Sky, and TalkTalk. For businesses with users across the UK, the connection path avoids unnecessary European transit hops, keeping round-trip latency low and consistent under peak load conditions.
Always-on DDoS mitigation from Corero Smartwall runs inline at the network edge, absorbing volumetric attacks before they reach the server layer. Full cloud server specifications and plan pricing are on the UK cloud hosting page.
Key Benefits
Every plan includes these capabilities as standard - no tier-gating, no hidden extras.
Your VMs run on hardware allocated exclusively to your organisation - no shared hypervisor hosts, no co-tenanted neighbours.
Proxmox or VMware-based orchestration provides VM provisioning, live migration, and software-defined networking on your private hardware.
All data stays within UK borders. We provide a signed data processing agreement confirming UK GDPR compliance.
PCI-DSS, ISO 27001, and NHS DSP Toolkit evidence packs available for your auditors. We handle the infrastructure side of the compliance burden.
Technical Specifications
Real specs on real hardware - not marketing numbers.
Minimum: 1 dedicated Intel Xeon node (32 cores, 256GB DDR5 ECC)
Storage: dedicated NVMe NAS or local NVMe per node
Orchestration: Proxmox VE or VMware vSphere (your choice)
Use Cases
This feature is particularly well suited to these workloads and teams.
Financial services, healthcare, and legal firms with data residency or compliance requirements - private cloud keeps workloads on UK-sovereign infrastructure with no shared tenancy.
Organisations replacing on-premise infrastructure with cloud economics but needing dedicated hardware - no shared hypervisor, full hardware isolation, and predictable performance SLAs.
Applications handling sensitive PII, payment data, or IP - private cloud eliminates shared CPU vulnerabilities (Spectre/Meltdown class) inherent to public multi-tenant hypervisors.
