Server infrastructure for Cybersecurity in Fairwood
The right server for Cybersecurity is decided by the work it has to do, not by the size of the plan you happen to land on. For a small Cybersecurity business in Fairwood that is about 2 Cores, 24 GB of memory and 450 GB of storage on VDS.
- ✓ 5 infrastructure tiers
- ✓ Sized for your workload, not a plan name
- ✓ Same price in all 24 locations
Estimated from fibre distance, not measured from Fairwood. Your real figure depends on your connection and route, and lands inside this range.

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 Cybersecurity size up this way
Working from about 5,000 visits a month and roughly 40,000 requests a day, storage grows by roughly 32 GB a month at this size, which usually decides the build before CPU does; and about 17 GB of data needs to stay in memory to keep queries fast.
- 1.4 req/sec at peak
- 16.8 GB working set
- 32 GB/month growth

Which tiers suit Cybersecurity
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 | Shared hosting cannot run background workers, queues or long-lived processes, which a SaaS application depends on. |
| VPS Flexible virtual infrastructure with full root access | Recommended | The natural home for an early-stage product: root access, your own runtime, and the ability to resize as you grow. |
| VDS Virtual server with resources pinned to you alone | Recommended | Pinned resources give you the predictable latency your customers will hold you to in an SLA. |
| Dedicated Server An entire physical server, configured to your specification | Recommended | Right once the database and the application tier are competing for the same memory on a single virtual instance. |
| Bare Metal Physical compute for sustained, demanding workloads | Workable | For platforms running their own virtualization, or holding a large working set entirely in memory. |
Cybersecurity workloads you can host
Retention is the constraint: keeping a year of logs searchable is a storage and indexing problem that never stops growing.
- SIEM & log ingestion
- Vulnerability scanning
- Threat intelligence feeds
- Incident case management
- Forensic storage
Where your server runs
All 24 locations cost the same, so pick whichever sits closest to the people who will actually use the server.

Cybersecurity in Fairwood
Technology & Software is one of the sectors Fairwood is known for, so this is a workload we are asked about here more than most.
The closest of our 24 data centres to Fairwood is Seattle, about 14 miles away. Every kilometre between your users and the server is latency you cannot optimise away in software.
Fairwood has a population of about 19,102, which is why the small build above is the one most likely to fit a Cybersecurity business here — though the other two are a click away if it does not. Local time is America/Los Angeles, 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 state privacy laws such as the CCPA. Pricing is quoted in USD, and the figure is the same wherever the machine physically sits.

Fairwood sits in Washington, and every one of our 24 locations costs the same — so the only thing worth optimising is which of them your users are closest to. At the small size assumed above, that is roughly 40,000 requests a day crossing that link.
