*📜 Plan description

Entry Xeon-D platform with 4c/8t SoC and 32 GB RAM. Storage starts at 2×480 GB (?960 GB total) and can scale to 2×2 TB; network shows 500 Mbps public. Balanced for always-on light virtualization, Docker hosts, small databases and low-to-mid traffic sites needing mirrored disks and good perf/W.

All Kimsufi servers share the eco bare-metal model: dedicated hardware, unmetered traffic at a capped port rate, and do-it-yourself administration. You can reinstall OS from templates, boot to rescue, and upgrade storage within the range presented. Pricing is monthly, VAT added where applicable, and support is via online helpdesk with 24×7 incident handling.

📄 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.
