📄 Editorial Review

LyraHosting is a privacy-focused offshore hosting provider operating since 2017. Its hosting infrastructure is concentrated in the Netherlands, particularly Amsterdam, while its administrative contact address is located in Makati, Philippines. The company is suited to customers looking for flexible hosting policies, cryptocurrency payments, high-bandwidth connectivity, DDoS protection and greater privacy than conventional mass-market hosting usually provides.

The portfolio covers shared web hosting, Linux VPS, Windows VPS, storage VPS, semi-dedicated servers, root servers, dedicated servers, high-bandwidth streaming servers, colocation, domain registration, SSL certificates, managed server administration, VPN access and standalone DDoS protection.

Shared hosting uses cPanel, RAID 10 SSD storage and two main packages. SSD Starter includes 10 GB of SSD storage, 500 GB of monthly traffic, unlimited databases, unlimited email accounts and hosting for one domain. SSD Enterprise increases the allocation to 50 GB of SSD storage and 5 TB of monthly traffic while supporting unlimited domains.

Both shared hosting packages include free SSL certificates, remote daily backups, selectable PHP versions, spam filtering, one-click application installation and free website migration. The environment supports WordPress, Joomla, Drupal, TYPO3 and Magento, together with PHP, Perl, Python, CGI, Ruby and Node.js functionality.

The VPS range is divided into separate Linux, Windows and storage-oriented product families. Linux VPS and Windows VPS use KVM virtualization, SSD storage, dedicated IPv4 addresses, unmetered traffic and Virtualizor management. Linux configurations begin with 1 vCPU, 1 GB of RAM and 20 GB of SSD storage, while larger packages reach 32 vCPUs, 32 GB of RAM and approximately 640 GB of SSD capacity.

Windows VPS packages begin with higher memory allocations and include administrator access through Remote Desktop. They are suitable for Windows applications, remote work environments, trading software, development platforms and other services requiring full administrative access.

Storage VPS uses OpenVZ virtualization and SAS storage. Capacity ranges from 250 GB to 8 TB, with unmetered traffic included. These packages are better suited to backups, archives, file repositories, media collections and secondary storage than to workloads requiring intensive SSD performance.

The semi-dedicated product family includes packages identified as Semi-Dedicated Servers and Root Servers. These remain virtualized through KVM but provide dedicated processor and memory resources. Configurations begin with two dedicated CPU cores, 8 GB of RAM and 240 GB of SSD storage, reaching up to 16 cores, 64 GB of RAM and 1 TB of SSD capacity. They provide a useful upgrade path for websites and applications that have outgrown an ordinary VPS without yet requiring a physical server.

Physical Dedicated Servers use Intel Xeon processors, HDD or SSD storage, full administrative access and unmetered network options. The range includes economical Intel Xeon E3 systems, dual-processor configurations and more powerful E5-based servers. Most systems can be deployed quickly, although dedicated-server delivery may require up to 24 hours.

The Streaming Server range is one of LyraHosting’s more specialized services. Dedicated 5 Gbps, 10 Gbps and 20 Gbps ports are available with either unmetered bandwidth or large metered traffic allocations. These servers are suitable for video streaming, IPTV platforms, media distribution, large file delivery, proxy services and other bandwidth-intensive applications.

Colocation is available for 1U and 2U equipment in the Netherlands. Packages include rack space, power, network connectivity, IP addresses, DDoS protection and limited remote-hands assistance. Optional BGP sessions and higher-capacity network connections are available for customers operating their own IP resources or network infrastructure.

LyraShield provides separate website-level and network-level DDoS protection. The entry package protects websites from Layer 7 attacks through a reverse proxy, web application firewall, Anycast delivery, JavaScript challenges, CAPTCHA protection and origin-server concealment.

The premium mitigation service extends protection to Layer 3 and Layer 4 attacks, with mitigation capacity reaching approximately 1.5 Tbps and 250 million packets per second. This makes it suitable for VPS platforms, dedicated servers, game services, streaming systems and other applications exposed directly to the Internet.

Additional services include privacy-oriented domain registration, domain transfers, commercial SSL certificates, server administration and assisted website migration. Migration work can include website files, databases, email accounts, DNS changes and pre-launch testing.

Managed service packages add server monitoring, operating-system updates, security hardening, firewall administration, malware checks, backup management and recovery support. These options are valuable for customers who require offshore infrastructure but do not want to maintain the operating system and security stack independently.

LyraVPN supports OpenVPN, IKEv2, L2TP/IPsec and PPTP. P2P traffic is allowed and traffic is not limited by a fixed monthly allowance. VPN package availability can vary, so it is best treated as an additional service rather than the core of the product range.

The main website is available in English. Direct customer assistance is available in English, Hindi, Urdu and Italian. The billing and client portal supports Arabic, Azerbaijani, Catalan, Chinese, Croatian, Czech, Danish, Dutch, English, Estonian, Persian, French, German, Hebrew, Hungarian, Italian, Macedonian, Norwegian, Portuguese, Romanian, Russian, Spanish, Swedish, Turkish and Ukrainian.

Prices can be displayed in EUR or USD, making the ordering process accessible to both European and international customers.

Offshore hosting does not remove legal or acceptable-use obligations. Dutch law applies to the service, and prohibited activity includes malware distribution, hacking, spam, fraud, illegal content, outbound attacks and other forms of network abuse. Services that attract disruptive attacks may be null-routed for 24 to 48 hours, while repeated incidents can result in additional mitigation charges, suspension or termination.
