Choose how the processor is shared

Every class ships the same hardware menu and the same Ubuntu Server 24.04 (LTS) 64-bit image. What changes is how the processor is shared — and the price moves with it.

Availability

Budget friendly

Reasonable for internal tools and staging where a slow minute costs nothing.

Dedicated

High performance

Dedicated cores for build servers, background jobs and anything with a queue that must not fall behind.

Hourly only

Burstable

Development only

Only for development boxes. Throttles under sustained load, so it is a poor fit for anything customer-facing.


$0.5729USD

per hour — booked for a window, not subscribed

Book by the hour

Raise memory, cores or disk on the same server as you grow — by hand, usually within the hour, without a migration.

Departments are not one customer

A university is a collection of groups with different needs and different budgets. A separate server per project is usually simpler and cheaper than negotiating shared capacity centrally.

One server per group

A research group gets root on its own machine rather than a ticket queue for a change on a shared one.

Term-time peaks

Memory, cores and disk go up on the same server for an intake or a submission deadline, and back down afterwards.

Predictable billing

A fixed monthly cost per machine, quoted in advance — easier to put on a grant or a departmental budget than usage-based cloud billing.

Where your server runs

All 24 locations cost the same, so pick whichever sits closest to the people who will actually use the server. Choose the region closest to the customers using the product day to day, or to the database it talks to if that lives elsewhere.

University Hosting in West Raleigh — FAQs

Yes, and it is usually the better arrangement. Each group gets root on its own machine, its own backups and its own bill, instead of contending for a shared one.
Can we scale for term time?
Memory, cores and disk go up on the same server by hand, usually within the hour, and come back down when the peak passes.
Do you offer purchase orders or invoicing?
Talk to us about billing arrangements — a fixed monthly price per machine is generally easier to put through institutional procurement than metered cloud usage.
