Server infrastructure for Airlines in Dunedin
Most Airlines outgrow their first server in one specific place — and it is rarely the one the plan name suggests. For a medium Airlines business in Dunedin that is about 6 Cores, 96 GB of memory and 450 GB of storage on Dedicated Server.
- ✓ 5 infrastructure tiers
- ✓ Sized for your workload, not a plan name
- ✓ Same price in all 24 locations

Configure this build →These figures are assumptions stated out loud, not predictions about your business. Memory, cores and disk can all be raised on the same server later, usually within the hour, with no rebuild and no new IP address — so starting one size below the estimate is normally the cheaper mistake.
Why Airlines size up this way
Working from about 50,000 visits a month and roughly 213,333 requests a day, peaks run about 8× the average hour, so the build is sized for the busiest moment rather than the typical one; about 80 GB of data needs to stay in memory to keep queries fast; and each request costs real computation rather than a cache lookup, so cores matter more here than on a typical site.
- 19.8 req/sec at peak
- 80 GB working set
- 12 GB/month growth

Which tiers suit Airlines
Including the ones that do not, and why — that is usually the more useful half.
| Infrastructure | Verdict | Why |
|---|---|---|
| Shared Hosting Managed space on a shared server | Not this one | An ERP or practice-management system needs a database tuned to its own workload, which a shared platform will not allow. |
| VPS Flexible virtual infrastructure with full root access | Workable | Enough for a small team, though the working set of a records system tends to outgrow a modest instance quickly. |
| VDS Virtual server with resources pinned to you alone | Recommended | Guaranteed memory is what keeps the database in cache, which is the single biggest factor in how fast these systems feel. |
| Dedicated Server An entire physical server, configured to your specification | Recommended | The usual answer: a records system rewards a large, uncontended memory pool and consistent disk latency. |
| Bare Metal Physical compute for sustained, demanding workloads | Workable | For large deployments, or where the database and application tiers are virtualized onto one physical host. |

Airlines in Dunedin
The closest of our 24 data centres to Dunedin is Sydney, about 1,311 miles away. Every kilometre between your users and the server is latency you cannot optimise away in software.
Dunedin has a population of about 132,800, which is why the medium build above is the one most likely to fit a Airlines business here — though the other two are a click away if it does not. Local time is Pacific/Auckland, so routine maintenance and backups are scheduled against your overnight rather than ours.
Data stays in the jurisdiction you choose, which matters if you are working to the Privacy Act 2020. Pricing is quoted in NZD, and the figure is the same wherever the machine physically sits.
