Choose M5 to Host your Ubuntu Dedicated Servers

Have your own dedicated server with Ubuntu installed on hardware or an Ubuntu VM in our cloud. You are root (OK, it’s Ubuntu… so you can sudo), do whatever you want with it. No minimum term, no setup or start up fee.
 
Ubuntu is a complete Linux-based operating system. Ubuntu OS uses the “apt” package manager, which users of Linux Debian will be familiar with, and a huge library of pre-compiled packages (over 16,000). It is very easy to install, update and remove software in your new Ubuntu system. Ubuntu is Open Source software package. The Ubuntu operating system is free of cost. In practical use, it is perfect for the person that wants the stability but does not require the commercial resource support and cost that commercial products offer.
 
The Ubuntu hosting community is built on the ideas enshrined in the Ubuntu Philosophy: that software should be available free of charge, that software tools should be usable by people in their local language and despite any disabilities, and that people should have the freedom to customize and alter their software in whatever way they see fit.
 
Our standard Ubuntu dedicated server platform is a high-performance, 1U or 2U high Supermicro chassis with your choice of processors such as Intel Dual-core and single or dual Intel Xeon. We have reliable ubuntu dedicated servers available from 4GB of RAM to 512GB of RAM. All of our dedicated servers have switched 1Gbps (1Gbit) Ethernet connections. Customized configurations are available with larger amounts of RAM or 10Gbits network. We can also colocate your provided hardware. Other dedicated server hardware configurations are available.
 
All our Dedicated Servers are monitored for availability (pinged every 5 minutes). In the event that your server goes down, you will be paged and/or e-mailed at the same time as our NOC. This web-based system can also give you uptime statistics and you can review historical monitoring data for your servers. We can also monitor network-based services such as HTTP, HTTPS, FTP, SMTP, POP3, DNS, and others on your server for availability.

Web-based Availability, Performance & Bandwidth Monitoring

Each and every switch port on our network is monitored for bandwidth, errors, discards and other anomalies. You have 24×7 web-based access to graphs that detail your bandwidth utilization by speed, and data transfer over time. You can also monitor your server health (CPU, disk use, memory, disk I/O, system load average). As an additional service, we can set alerts for you if thresholds are exceeded.

The facility is staffed 24×7 and is serviced with redundant air, power and network. We share the facility with some of America’s top financial institutions, government contractors, biotech and research organizations, hosting companies and network security companies.
