Dedicated servers
Full hardware, nothing shared
Dedicated CPU, RAM, and storage with no other tenants — for workloads that need consistent, predictable performance.

Single-application workloads.
Production databases and multi-service apps.
High-throughput and compliance-sensitive workloads.
Power-cycle your server from the control panel without waiting on a support ticket.
Traffic filtering at the network edge, included at no extra cost on Business and up.
A published uptime commitment backed by service credits if it's missed.
Common Linux distributions available at provisioning, with a clean install every time.
The honest signal to move from VPS to dedicated is resource contention, not size alone — if you're consistently maxing out CPU or I/O on a large VPS instance rather than occasionally spiking, a dedicated server's non-shared hardware will behave more predictably than simply upgrading to an even bigger virtual instance. Database-heavy workloads in particular benefit, since disk I/O on a dedicated server isn't competing with other tenants.
Compliance requirements are the other common reason: some certifications and client contracts specify non-virtualized, single-tenant hardware explicitly, which a VPS can't satisfy no matter how well-resourced it is. If neither of those applies to you yet, a Standard or Performance VPS is usually the better cost-to-performance choice.
