Server infrastructure for InsurTech in Idaho

- ✓ 5 infrastructure tiers
- ✓ Sized for your workload, not a plan name
- ✓ Same price in all 24 locations
Estimated from fibre distance, not measured from Idaho. 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 InsurTech size up this way
Working from about 50,000 visits a month and roughly 400,000 requests a day, about 32 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.
- 13.9 req/sec at peak
- 32 GB working set
- 10 GB/month growth

Which tiers suit InsurTech
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. |

InsurTech in Idaho
The closest of our 24 data centres to Idaho is Seattle, about 397 miles away. Every kilometre between your users and the server is latency you cannot optimise away in software.
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.
Network reach from Idaho
Estimated from fibre distance rather than measured, and stated as a range. Your own access network decides the rest.

| Seattleamericas | 397 miles | 10–19 ms |
| Santa Claraamericas | 602 miles | 15–29 ms |
| Los Angelesamericas | 738 miles | 18–36 ms |
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 medium size assumed above, that is roughly 400,000 requests a day crossing that link.
