*📜 Plan description

Designed for virtualization and VDI, Advance-4 emphasizes parallelism and memory bandwidth. Use cases include database servers, Oracle-backed line-of-business apps, and hypervisors like Proxmox, KVM, Hyper-V, Citrix or VMware. Dual 25-Gbps NICs with 25 Gbps guaranteed private bandwidth allow for storage/replication networks on vRack, while NVMe soft-RAID covers fast local tiers. Standard inclusions: IPv4 + IPv6 range, Anti-DDoS, IPMI over IP, and API/Control Panel automation. Optional: Load Balancer, additional geolocated IPv4s, Windows/cPanel/Plesk licenses, and external file/object backup.

Advance delivers a 99.95% SLA, DDR5 ECC On-Die memory, and water-cooling for efficiency. It integrates with OVHcloud’s ecosystem (storage, backup, networking) and offers predictable monthly pricing and phone/helpdesk guidance for self-managed ops.

📄 Editorial Review

OVHCloud is a large, vertically integrated provider founded in 1999 that serves ~1.5M customers with a very broad catalog spanning Shared Hosting, VPS, Dedicated Servers, Public/Hosted Private Cloud, domains, email, and SSL. They operate on an in-house global backbone (quoted ~20 Tbit/s capacity) and run infrastructure across dozens of locations on four continents. The overall value proposition blends scale, price/performance, and control: anti-DDoS is standard, bandwidth is generous (often unmetered in EU/US/CA), and many products include backups and automation while keeping costs predictable.
Product lineup at a glance

  • Shared Web Hosting – PHP hosting with anti-DDoS, daily backups, databases, 1-click CMS installers, and a free domain for the first year on many plans. They advertise 99.99% availability on the platform (no formal SLA on shared).
  • VPS – NVMe-backed instances with daily automatic backups, 1-click scaling, integrated KVM console, IPv4/IPv6, optional managed databases, 99.9% SLA, and optional cPanel/Plesk images.
  • Dedicated Servers (Bare Metal Cloud) – multiple ranges:
    • Rise (best price/performance; 1 Gbps guaranteed public bandwidth in EU/US/CA; 500 GB backup space).
    • Advance (versatile AMD EPYC, 3 Gbps guaranteed public + 25 Gbps private, 99.95% SLA, rich storage/backup options, Network Security Dashboard, Carbon Calculator).
    • Storage (SAS/NVMe, hot-swap, HA-NAS and file-storage add-ons).
    • Game (high-freq AMD EPYC, Game DDoS protection, NVMe/DDR5).
    • Scale (up to 256 cores, 4×25 Gbps NICs, 50 Gbps vRack).
    • High Grade (Xeon Gold/EPYC 9004, dual PSUs, hot-swap SSDs, 99.99% SLA, up to 100–200 Gbps internal with OLA).
    • Wholesale/white-label rack options and the budget Kimsufi line for low-resource projects.
  • Public Cloud – OpenStack/Kubernetes-based compute, storage, networks, managed databases, analytics, AI/ML, and a growing Local Zones footprint; API calls and egress are included in many price points to keep costs predictable.
  • Hosted Private Cloud – VMware SDDC in dedicated environments (Essential/Premier).
  • Email/Exchange, CDN (Basic/Security/Advanced), and SSL (Sectigo DV/EV) round out the web stack.

Security and compliance are a core theme (built-in anti-DDoS; certifications; SecNumCloud for sensitive EU workloads). The manufacturing/supply chain is unusually integrated (servers built in France/Canada, custom water-cooling, component reuse), supporting both sustainability and cost control.
