Cloud Servers
Designed and Optimized for Clients
Our platform is optimized to suit your business first and foremost. This means you choose the configuration that best suits you in terms of workload, options or billing. No unnecessary long-term commitments. That’s why DWTI provides powerful bare metal servers and flexible virtual servers in a single, seamless platform. As you expect with virtual cloud servers (but rarely with bare metal), it’s all on demand and billed on monthly or hourly terms. No long-term commitments. Complete infrastructure control.
On Demand
Deploy a fixed-config bare metal or virtual server in minutes. Customize a bare metal server in 2-4 hours.
Flexible
Move images between bare metal and virtual servers with our automated Flex Images technology.
Integrated
All services are integrated into a single platform to optimize performance and management.
Bare Metal Servers
Select hourly bare metal server configurations with our most-ordered options, and deploy it in 20-30 minutes. Or fully customize a monthly bare metal server, and we’ll deploy it in 2-4 hours. Monthly bare metal servers also include 500GB of free outbound bandwidth at no additional cost.
Virtual Servers
Simply select the cores, storage, and RAM you need, and our automated provisioning system will deploy your virtual server within 5 to 15 minutes. Virtual servers ordered with monthly billing also include 250GB of outbound public bandwidth at no additional cost.

If you have questions about configuring your bare metal server, chat with our team, and we’ll help guide you through the process of selecting a server and customizing it with hardware upgrades.
Transparent Hardware Pricing
Customize the hardware resources in your monthly bare metal servers. Hourly bare metal servers are built on fixed, pre-configured hardware to enable faster provisioning times, so hardware on hourly bare metal servers cannot be modified.
Please note: Some server models do not support all hardware upgrades.
Processor
Configure your bare metal server with cutting-edge Intel server-grade processors. Outfit your 1U, 2U, or 4U bare metal server with up to four CPUs to maximize your processing power.
Local Disk
Whether you’ve got a need for SSD speed or requirements for massive local disk volume, you have the option to add and upgrade the hard drives on your bare metal server.
SATA Hard Drives
SATA II hard drives include a 3.0Gb/s interface with 8MB of cache and rotation speed of 7,200RPMs, and use NCQ for enhanced performance. SATA III drives include a 6.0Gb/s interface with 64MB of cache. SATA drives are best suited for the web, mail, or high-capacity storage servers.
SA-SCSI Hard Drives
SA-SCSI hard drives include a 3.0Gb/s interface with 16MB of cache and rotation speed of 10,000 or 15,000RPMs. SA-SCSI drives’ high-performance speed and reliability are best suited for game, database, streaming media, and mission-critical servers.
Solid State Drives
Choose server-class solid state drives (SSDs) for exceptional read/write performance and low latency. SSDs provide reliable and secure enterprise-class storage ideal for high-performance and data-intensive applications.
Hardware RAID Controller
Hardware RAID controllers provide the ability to create redundant drive arrays, offering protection against a possible drive failure. All RAID controllers are installed with a battery backup unit and with write caching enabled.
RAM
Add up to 3TB of RAM capacity during initial deployment or at any time during the life of your server. The more RAM you add to your server, the better per-GB price you pay.
Bandwidth
Order up to 20TB of public outbound bandwidth to bring your bandwidth costs down to less than $0.075/GB. 500GB bandwidth included with monthly bare metal servers. Get the fastest, most reliable bandwidth in your region, and pay for what you need.
Network Uplink
Your bare metal server comes with 100Mbps public and private network uplinks, and you have the flexibility to upgrade or downgrade that connection based on your workloads.
Redundant Power Supplies
Your critical systems require utmost redundancy. Add an additional safeguard to protect your high-value servers from service interruption in the event of a power supply failure.
Intel® Trusted Execution Technology
Add an additional layer of security with Intel® TXT, and build a solid foundation for a secure infrastructure. Available on specific bare metal servers, this technology ensures systems start up in a known good state.
Additional Server Options
In addition to standard hardware configuration options, we offer a several premium server options on monthly bare metal servers for your most demanding workloads. Supercharge your compute-intensive application with GPUs, maximize your storage volume with more than a dozen hard drives, or cut down on inter-server latency by provisioning your servers in the same physical rack. You want it; we’ve got it.
General Purpose GPU (for High Performance Computing)
Amp up the performance on your compute-intensive applications with high performance computing bare metal server featuring NVIDIA Tesla Graphics Processing Units (GPUs). GPUs work in conjunction with your server’s CPUs to accelerate data processing and deliver unparalleled results, whether you’re data mining, performing numerical and seismic analysis, or processing and rendering 3D video.
Mass Storage Servers
You’ve got tons of data, and you need space. Mass storage servers accommodate up to 36 internal hard drives and can be provisioned with your choice of operating system or as a turnkey NAS + SAN storage solution with OS NEXUS Quantastor Software.
Dedicated Rack
Physically locate multiple servers in the same physical rack. Data transfer between servers in a dedicated rack environment is almost instantaneous so that you can minimize your inter-server network latency.
