Bluehost Dedicated Server Features And Configuration

By Carmella Watts


There has been a lot of pre-launch buzz surrounding the Bluehost dedicated server, and it only seems to be growing after the launch. Let's take a look at what customers are in store for. After all, it was only a few months ago that Bluehost was looked upon as a respectable shared hosting provider. Suddenly they're the hottest new thing on the market, offering VPS and dedicated machines backed up by what they say is an unmatched level of IT infrastructure and support.

Bluehost engineers assemble these servers in-house using the best available parts, including industrial grade processors. The company has also developed its own linux kernel, and the servers are loaded with the cutting-edge OS and other server management and web-hosting tools without any outside assistance from a third-party provider. The machines are housed in their own data center, which is located in Utah.

A cloud-based system bridges customers with the hardware, which means that upgrades are seamless and the customer never faces any disruption of service. Support teams work round the clock to make sure all systems are up 24/7. A nationwide fiber network and backup power provided by diesel generators makes their jobs a lot easier. In fact, customers all over the world can expect access through multiple 10 GB fiber connections.

Since the hardware, OS, data center, fiber network and support are all directly provided by Bluehost, dedicated server customers do not have to deal with a whole bunch of companies and contractors. Any issue or need can be sorted out quickly with a single point of contact. Hold times for customers who call for support are less than 30 seconds on average.

The control panel provided for managed servers is an enhanced version which includes administrative management tools in addition to the usual tools that shared hosting users see in their CP. The thing that really sets Bluehost apart is the instant provisioning that follows the sign-up process. The account is activated immediately, providing customers with full root access and control panel usage.

The customer data in a machine is safeguarded using a mirrored RAID configuration. The enormous bandwidths available can easily handle a flood of visitors during network peak times. User management is vastly improved with the help of a single log-in used for all administrative access.

The hardware configuration varies slightly based on the choice of package. For instance, the processor may be dual or quad core. The amount of RAM varies from 4-16 GB, while the size of the two HDDs may be either 500 GB or 1000 GB each. Additional storage space can be accessed in 500 GB, 1 TB or 2 TB increments. The basic bandwidth available per month varies from 5-15 TB.

Bluehost dedicated server packages also include three to five dedicated IP addresses, one free domain name for a year, and KVM for virtualization. Customers can choose from amongst three separate packages. Payments can be made every month, once per quarter, twice a year, or on an annual basis. The company is offering 50 percent off for the initial month on all packages, and they also have a money back guarantee during this first month if the customer is not happy.
