Data infrastructure
Dedicated database servers sized around latency, memory, and recovery
Run PostgreSQL, MySQL, MariaDB, document stores, caches, or analytical databases on isolated hardware selected for the working set, write pattern, storage layout, and recovery objective.
Isolated resources
CPU, RAM, and local storage are not shared with unrelated tenants.
Configuration visibility
Review disk, network, IP, operating system, and available server options before deployment.
Location choice
Place primary, replica, or backup nodes according to users, applications, and compliance needs.
Upgrade planning
Discuss memory-heavy, storage-dense, replicated, or multi-node projects before ordering.
Capacity model
Design from the workload, not a generic database label
The right configuration depends on whether the workload is memory-resident, write-heavy, storage-dense, replication-sensitive, or analytical. The deployment flow exposes the server and available upgrades before purchase.
Questions before deployment
Practical answers
Which database engines can I run?
You control the operating system and can install compatible database software such as PostgreSQL, MySQL, MariaDB, Redis, MongoDB, and analytical engines. Licensing remains your responsibility unless stated otherwise.
Should I use NVMe or HDD storage?
NVMe is usually the better fit for latency-sensitive active data. HDD can still be useful for capacity-oriented archives or backup tiers when performance requirements allow it.
Does RAID replace database backups?
No. RAID can reduce downtime from a disk failure, but it does not protect against deletion, corruption, compromise, or site-level incidents. Keep and test separate backups.
Can I deploy primary and replica servers?
Yes. Contact an engineer when you need coordinated locations, consistent server shapes, private networking, or a planned replication handoff.
Is the server managed?
Dedicated server plans are unmanaged unless the selected product or written order explicitly includes management. Hosthink supports the infrastructure layer; database administration must be planned separately.
Review the real configuration before you commit
Inventory, location, options, and recurring price stay visible through the deployment flow.
