A dedicated game server is a server that is hosted in a data center that is used primarily for hosting multiplayer online gaming that can be accessible to a customer worldwide. Remote users connect to this server to play a game together as a community. Servers for games can also be used to host related services such as email hosting or voice chat. You pay a fee each month to setup the server in the cloud at one of our secure data centers so that the server is online 24×7.
Every game and business is unique, so there’s no one choice that’s perfect for all projects. One server may be better suited for SSD disks, and another may need to store huge amounts of data, leaving SSD drives as an expensive option. If you request a quote, we can review your specific requirements and choose a dedicated server that is right for your project.
There are many games that you can host your own game hosting server. Some examples include:
7 Days To Die
Ark Survival Evolved
Arma 2: Dayz Epoch 1.0.6+
Arma 3: Altis Life
Arma 3: Exile Mod
Conan Exiles
Dark And Light
Eco
Empyrion: Galactic Survival
Minecraft
PixARK
Rust
The Forest
Unturned
Gaming servers are the perfect tool for building a community of players in the cloud.
Investigate which Operating System is required for the game you wish to setup a dedicated server for. Some game servers support a variety of Operating Systems, so you should choose the one you are most familiar with and that is most frequently updated. CentOS, Ubuntu, and Debian are the most popular options when it comes to Linux Operating Systems. We also carry Windows Operating Systems.
WOnly some games allow you to setup your own game server. For example, Fortnite and Warcraft do not allow the installation of a remote server and as they host the servers that run the game themselves. For these applications, it would not be possible to setup a dedicated server to host the game.
