What else?

ARM servers are made to be sustainable, power-efficient and able to handle the highest workloads. 

They’re built to reduce power consumption, lower costs and improve scalability. Our ARM Hosting does all of this by reducing rack and floor space, and consuming less power than traditional x86-based servers. The reduction in running costs also means we’re able to offer them to you at a lower price, meaning you get the best value for your money.

With configurations of 96 cores per socket, these servers are scalable, meaning they’re well suited for high-performance computing and cloud workloads. They can also be customised to meet specific workload requirements. So no matter what you’re working on, your ARM server can be tailored to you. 

Use cases

Okay, so our ARM Server Hosting is cost-efficient and powerful – that’s great, but what can it actually be used for?

  • Cloud computing – well-suited for cloud workloads, like web serving, caching, and content delivery networks
  • High-performance computing – can be used for HPC workloads, such as scientific simulations, data analytics, and machine learning
  • Edge computing – compatible with edge computing applications, like IoT, real-time analytics, and machine learning
  • Databases and storage – suitable for database workloads, such as MySQL, PostgreSQL, and MongoDB, as well as storage workloads, like object storage and file storage 
  • Artificial intelligence and machine learning – also suitable for AI and ML workloads, like model training, inference, and natural language processing
