📄 Editorial Review

GigeNET is a long-standing infrastructure provider based in Arlington Heights, Illinois, with roots going back to 1997, when founder Ameen Pishdadi started GlobalWebHost and gradually evolved it into today’s brand. Over time, the company moved from simple web hosting into a full infrastructure stack built around dedicated servers, cloud/VPS, colocation and DDoS mitigation, with a strong focus on network engineering and uptime rather than entry-level shared hosting.

The heart of the portfolio is its dedicated server platform, deployed across three US locations: Chicago, Los Angeles and Ashburn (Virginia). Configurations span older but proven Intel Xeon E3/E5 models through to more modern Xeon D and Xeon Silver systems, with options that go up to around 28 cores / 56 threads, hundreds of gigabytes of RAM and large storage footprints. Bandwidth allocations typically start at about 30 TB per month on a 1 Gbps port, with options for unmetered bandwidth on certain configurations. Many server types can be ordered in any of the three locations, which makes it straightforward to match latency requirements for US-East, US-West or more central workloads.

For customers who want flexibility without managing physical hardware, GigeNET runs its own cloud / VPS platform. Instances are provisioned on enterprise hardware with virtualization and high-availability clustering, controlled through a web portal and optional API. The environment is designed for quick provisioning, easy scaling and minimal downtime, making it suitable for SaaS platforms, web applications, development and staging environments that need to change size over time or move quickly between resource tiers.

One of GigeNET’s main differentiators is its long history in DDoS protection. The in-house ProxyShield® service acts as a mitigation layer in front of customers’ servers and applications, filtering volumetric and application-layer attacks before they reach the origin. This is complemented by more recent, AI-driven traffic-analysis tools aimed at detecting and adapting to new attack patterns in real time. For businesses that have been taken offline by DDoS in the past, the ability to combine hosting, network and mitigation under one roof is a major selling point.

Alongside dedicated servers and cloud, GigeNET also offers colocation—particularly anchored in its Chicago facility—with options ranging from single-U footprints to full cabinets and custom cages. Colocation clients benefit from the same network backbone, DDoS options and remote-hands services as dedicated customers, while retaining full control over their own hardware. Storage services such as GigeVault file storage and block storage based on Ceph / iSCSI let customers offload data volumes to specialized storage clusters while keeping them on the same network.

Overall, the portfolio is clearly built for technically comfortable users, SaaS providers, game hosting, VPN services and enterprises. There is no mass-market shared hosting tier here. Instead, GigeNET focuses on giving customers controllable infrastructure with strong SLAs, backed by its own network and staff. For small personal projects the platform may feel oversized, but for infrastructure-heavy workloads it provides plenty of room to grow.
