Find Your Perfect Dedicated Server
Answer a few quick questions and get a genuine recommendation from our Amsterdam lineup — instantly, on this page. No email required.
What will your server run?
Every workload stresses different parts of a server. Pick the closest match — we'll tailor the questions to it.
Size your web hosting server
Two quick questions — pick what's closest. Everything stays adjustable later.
That's concurrent visitors across all sites on this server — not daily or monthly totals.
Uncached, dynamic requests need several times the muscle of static or cached pages — this changes the build more than any other answer.
cPanel is the industry-standard control panel for websites, email and domains — ideal if you don't want to manage the server over the command line. You purchase the license directly from cPanel; our team installs and configures it for you.
Size your streaming server
Streaming is all about bandwidth. Watch your required port update live as you answer.
Not sure? 2.5 Mbps (HD) is the most common choice.
Incoming sources — channels, cameras, or broadcasters pushing video to the server at peak.
Peak concurrent viewers across all streams — not monthly totals. Starting small is smart; ports upgrade with zero data loss.
How we calculate this
Size your game server
Game servers live and die by CPU speed per core. Two questions and we'll match you to fast cores.
Heavily-modded worlds (large modpacks, big ARK/Rust maps) need extra CPU headroom — we'll size up a tier for them.
Size your VPN server
One question. VPN servers rarely run out of CPU — they run out of bandwidth, so that's what we size for.
We estimate roughly 3 Mbps of sustained throughput per active user — past team scale, we'll size a True-Unmetered bandwidth port so transfer caps are never your problem.
Size your storage server
Two questions — capacity and how often you'll touch the data.
Include room to grow — a backup set usually grows 20–30% a year.
