H4Y BYOS™ Server Type Comparison Table
Server Type CPU Family Sockets Cores Performance Use Cases Scalability
Single Intel Intel Xeon E/Scalable 1 4–16 Balanced Web servers, small VMs, staging environments Moderate (RAM & storage upgrades)
Single AMD AMD EPYC/Ryzen 1 8–32 High per core Data pipelines, compute-heavy apps Moderate (cost-effective scaling)
Dual/Quad Intel Intel Xeon Scalable 2 or 4 16–96+ High throughput Virtualization, AI/ML workloads, video rendering High (large memory & CPU capacity)
AMD High Core AMD EPYC 1 (dense core) 32–96 Very high core Parallel processing, API-heavy microservices High (excellent per-watt scaling)
4. Choose your processor. The list filters to show only CPUs compatible with your selected chassis.
5. Add memory. Select standard or performance ECC RAM. The tool validates maximum supported capacity based on your motherboard and CPU.
6. Configure storage. Pick up to four drives by form factor (SATA, SSD, NVMe) and capacity.
7. Set your RAID option. Choose “None,” “Software RAID,” or “BIOS RAID.” Include partitioning details in the Notes field.
8. Select your data center. Choose one of H4Y’s six U.S. locations for optimal latency and compliance.
9. Define bandwidth and port speed. Specify data transfer caps and select 1 Gbps or 10 Gbps ports.
10. Add operating system and software. Pick Linux, Windows, or upload a custom ISO. Only compatible OS options appear.
11. Configure add-ons
a. Control panel: cPanel, DirectAdmin, or none for CLI access.
b. IP addresses: 5 IPv4 + /64 IPv6 included; add extra IPv4 as needed.
c. Server management: Self-Managed or Fully Managed by H4Y.
d. KernelCare: Enable rebootless kernel patching for critical uptime.
e. LiteSpeed: Swap Apache for LiteSpeed to boost PHP performance.
f. Immunify360: Add malware detection and proactive threat defense.
g. MailChannels SMTP: Increase deliverability via a trusted mail network.
h. External backups: Automate daily or weekly off-server backups.
12. Set hostname, root password, and notes
a. Enter a hostname (e.g., web01.yourdomain.com) and a secure root password.
b. Use Notes to specify custom requests (RAID layout, OS tweaks, etc.).
13. Review and submit. Verify all selections, then click Continue to process your order.
