Custom Dedicated Servers

Tired of squeezing your applications into a pre-configured box that almost fits? Atlantic.Net custom-configured dedicated servers let you choose exactly the CPU, RAM, storage, operating system, and network configuration your business requires. Pay only for what you need. Get full root access from day one.

Every custom dedicated server runs on hardware you select, housed in Atlantic.Net's SOC 2 Type II, HIPAA, and PCI-DSS audited data centers, with a 100% uptime SLA and 24/7/365 US-based support backing every deployment.

Why Choose a Custom Dedicated Server?

Unlike shared hosting, a dedicated server gives you exclusive use of the physical hardware. No noisy neighbors consuming your CPU. No other users competing for memory or bandwidth. Your server, your resources, your performance.

Custom configuration takes this further. Standard dedicated server packages work well for common workloads. But if you run resource-intensive applications, high-traffic databases, real-time analytics, or compliance-regulated workloads, you need exact specifications rather than the closest available option.

Predictable performance

With dedicated resources and a fixed price, your monthly costs stay constant regardless of traffic spikes or processing demands.

Full control

Root access gives you complete authority over the operating system, installed software, control panels, and server configuration. Unlike shared hosting or managed cloud tiers, nothing is locked down.

Reduced latency

Your applications run directly on bare metal. No hypervisor overhead, no virtualization layer between your workload and the hardware. Direct access to CPU, memory, and NVMe SSD storage means faster load times and lower response latency for your users.

Cost Transparency

Atlantic.Net offers custom dedicated server configurations with straightforward monthly pricing. You pay a fixed rate based on your selected hardware, starting from month one.

What You Can Configure

Atlantic.Net custom dedicated servers are built to your exact specifications across every major hardware component.

100% Uptime SLA

Atlantic.Net guarantees 100% uptime on network, hardware, and infrastructure — one of the strongest SLAs available from any dedicated hosting provider. Most providers offer 99.9% or 99.99%. We offer 100%.

Audited Compliance Certifications

Atlantic.Net data centers carry independently audited certifications across the compliance frameworks most commonly required by regulated industries:

SOC 2 Type II and SOC 3 Type II
HIPAA AT-C 105 and 205
HITECH
PCI-DSS
NIST 800-53

All certifications are audited by a third-party CPA firm. Atlantic.Net signs Business Associate Agreements (BAAs) for healthcare and health-sector customers. These certifications apply to custom-configured servers hosted in our facilities, not as an add-on tier.

Predictable Pricing. Atlantic.Net offers custom dedicated server configurations with straightforward monthly pricing. You pay a fixed rate based on your selected hardware, starting from month one.

24/7/365 US-Based Support

Phone and email support from US-based engineers, available every day of the year. Spanish language support is also available. Optional managed services extend this to include proactive monitoring, firewall management, IPS, patch management, and DDoS protection.

Multiple US Data Center Regions

Deploy your custom server in the Atlantic.Net data center regions closest to your users or business operations:

New York, NY — Financial district proximity, carrier-neutral facility

Ashburn, VA — One of the most interconnected data center markets in the US

Orlando, FL — Strategically located to support low-latency connectivity to South America, while supporting compliance-ready workloads

Dallas, TX — Central US location, strong connectivity to southern and midwestern US users

San Francisco, CA — West coast coverage, low latency to Pacific markets

All facilities carry the same compliance certifications. Choose your location based on latency requirements, data residency preferences, or proximity to your users.

Remote Management and Reboots

Hardware-level remote management is included on all custom dedicated servers. Perform remote reboots, access out-of-band management consoles, and diagnose hardware issues without physical data center access. This keeps your support team productive and your server recoverable even during software-level failures.

High Availability Configuration

For workloads that cannot tolerate downtime, Atlantic.Net supports high availability architecture across custom dedicated server configurations. Options include:

Hardware RAID (RAID 1 or RAID 10) to protect against single-drive failure without interrupting service

Software RAID for environments where you want OS-level control over the storage configuration

Multiple servers across data center locations for geographic redundancy and disaster recovery

Private network connectivity for direct, low-latency communication between servers in your infrastructure without routing through the public internet

High availability configurations are quoted individually. Contact the sales team to design a resilient infrastructure that matches your uptime and recovery requirements.

Scalable Infrastructure

Custom dedicated servers are not a dead end. As your business grows, Atlantic.Net can provision additional servers configured to match or extend your existing setup. You can expand into Atlantic.Net's cloud hosting for burst capacity, or add colocation rack space if you want to bring your own hardware into our facilities alongside your hosted servers. Your infrastructure scales with your business, all under one provider relationship.
