Customizable Semi-Managed Dedicated Servers

All South Africa Dedicated servers are Semi-Managed. Our administrators install your server and reinstall the OS per request and help server owners troubleshoot in case of any operating system, networking, or software configuration issues. Clients can use custom IPv4 and IPv6 network settings and scale their bandwidth ports between 1 Gbps and 10 Gbps. They can install Ubuntu, RockyLinux, AlmaLinux, Debian, FreeBSD, Fedora, or any other Linux server OS distribution. Windows Server editions 2019 and 2022 are also available on the server configuration page. Those who need a graphic dashboard (GUI) to manage their server can use - CentOS Web Panel (CWP), Froxlor, Vesta, or any of the other recommended open-source control panels - or choose cPanel or DirectAdmin. To anyone who wants to use a Linux-based Cloud PC, we recommend Peppermint OS, which is based on the Debian/Devuan repositories.

Johannesburg Data Center NOC

South Africa Dedicated Server Network

Our Johannesburg NOCs deliver network services to the South African dedicated servers' clients using U.S. Tier 1 networks like Lumen, Comcast, Deutsche Telekom, GTT, KDDI, NTT, Rogers, Verizon, Zayo, and many other major ISPs offering the lowest possible round trip delays (RTT) in the U.S. an all over the world.
Premium SLA

Dedicated Hosting w/ Premium SLA

It is important for you to understand how HostColor's networking service works. Choose a certain bandwidth commitment in Mbps or go for metered data transfer. The South Africa dedicated servers feature unrestricted bandwidth quota on 250Mbps, 500Mbps, 1Gbps, 10Gbps, 20Gbps, and 30Gbps capacity ports.
High Bandwidth Dedicated Hosting

Bandwidth or Data Transfer

HC delivers South AfricanJohannesburg dedicated servers measured by the allocated "Bandwidth" quota (in Mbps or Gbps) and servers measured by the transmitted "Data Transfer" (in terabytes). Most of our Dedicated Servers in Johannesburg are measured by the allocated bandwidth and feature a fixed bandwidth rate between 250 Mbps and 30 Gbps. The clients of those servers never pay for the used data transfer in gigabytes (GB) or terabytes (TB). HostColor's Johannesburg-hosted servers, measured by the allocated "Bandwidth" and all Unmetered Servers save our customers between a couple of thousands and tens of thousands of dollars on an annual basis.
Terraform supported Johannesburg Dedicated Server

HC's Johannesburg Edge Servers support TerraformĀ®

Terraform is an open-source infrastructure tool that uses declarative configuration files to define API calls using a write, plan, and apply workflow process. You can use Terraform to provision and manage your IT infrastructure hosted on the Johannesburg-hosted dedicated servers.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is my South African Edge Server protected against failure?
Yes! Each dedicated server in Johannesburg is connected to two network switches that have multiple 40-gigabit fiber connections to the data center's network architecture that feature failover protection. The entire network architecture maintains full data transfer capacity in the event of a single network device or link failure. Internet traffic from the Teraco JB1, Teraco JB3 data center to either the public Internet or the MPLS IP VPN network is secured by two e routers for each network. The Internet traffic can be routed through both routers and is automatically switched in the event of failure of either network device.
How does HostColor bill my Johannesburg Dedicated Server?
Once payment is made, the billing month for your Semi-Managed Dedicated Server in Johannesburg starts from the moment we send you the login credentials. By default, all Ashburn dedicated hosting services are set to month-to-month contracts to provide maximum flexibility.
You can choose between month-to-month, 3-month, 6-month, and annual contracts. If you opt for an annual contract, you will receive a lower monthly service fee. However, you will need to prepay the full contract (all 12 service fees). Please note that your South African dedicated Server on a month-to-month contract must be canceled properly and terminated before we stop billing you. The Johannesburg-based Edge servers, like other dedicated hosting services, require a 30-day cancellation notice. In some cases, we may allow early cancellations. To qualify for an early cancellation, you must submit a cancellation request from your Account 5 business days before the beginning of the new billing cycle
Is there technical support available for my Johannesburg server?
All HostColor dedicated servers in South Africa come with free infrastructure support. We save your money. Unlike major cloud infrastructure providers who charge clients for technical support on unmanaged infrastructure, HostColor never charges you for such support. Our infrastructure technical support includes everything related to network interfaces and the core functionality of the physical components of your Johannesburg dedicated server such as CPU, RAM, and storage drives. However, it does not include support for the operating system, any custom configurations created and managed by the client, and the installed software applications. With our free infrastructure support, you can save money and get the technical assistance you need for your server's core components.
Is HostColor an experienced and trustworthy provider?
HostColor's core team has been managing servers and IT infrastructures since 2000. As an organization, Host Color LLC has over 20 years of experience in the hosting industry. To illustrate HostColor's experience, consider these two facts: HostColor started hosting content management systems three years before WordPress was launched, and had already been providing virtual server hosting services for seven years when Amazon launched its AWS with the Elastic Compute Cloud (EC2). HostColor's team members have extensive experience with major operating systems, virtualization technologies, Linux, Apache, MySQL, PHP, and hundreds of open-source applications at any stage of their development and business lifecycles. You can rely on HostColor to install and maintain a secure, productive, and cost-effective technology environment on your Ashburn dedicated server.
Which OS can I use on my Dedicated Server in Johannesburg?
The South African Dedicated Servers hosted in the data centers located at Teraco JB1, Teraco JB3 data center in Johannesburg can use any Linux OS distribution or a Windows OS. You can also install Proxmox VE, VMware ESXi, Linux Containers, or any other virtualization platform.
How does HC assign IP addresses on the Johannesburg Edge Server?
All clients with dedicated servers in Johannesburg are assigned 1 usable IP address and can add more IPs at any time. We can add more IPv4 addresse or IPv6 addresses on demand.
What does a Semi-Managed Dedicated Server mean?
While most dedicated hosting providers offer 'Unmanaged' or 'Managed' hosting services, HostColor does 'Semi-Managed' and 'Managed' Dedicated Servers. 'Unmanaged' means that the client is solely responsible for the management of the bare-metal dedicated server they have. The provider's responsibility is to make sure that the server network connection works properly and in case of a hardware failure, to fix the failed componentsJohannesburg, or to replace the whole physical server.
'Managed' means that the provider is responsible for managing the network, the physical server, the installed operating system, and the software environment. The provider does operating system updates, software updates, and other management and configuration tasks on the physical server. In other words 'Unmanaged Dedicated Servers' does not feature server-side support and therefore the clients pay for the base infrastructure service. The 'Managed Dedicated Servers' feature full server-side infrastructure, OS, and software environment support and therefore are more expensive, as the provider's experts commit time and work hours to deliver technical and system administration.
HostColor fills the gap by offering 'Semi-Managed' Dedicated Servers in Johannesburg. 'Semi-Managed' means that our administrators install your preferred OS on the physical server or your preferred virtualization platform to transform the physical server into a Cloud infrastructure. We create a custom technology environment per your requirements and keep on record a description with the 'base desired state' of your South African DedicatedJohannesburg server. As a part of the 'Semi-Managed' support contract, HostColor reinstalls the server OS per the request and helps the client fix issues and troubleshoot in case of any operating system, networking, or software configuration issues. All 'Semi-Managed' Johannesburg dedicated servers feature up to 30 minutes per month of technical and system administration. Any time spent by HC experts on managing the server OS, software environments, or troubleshooting is charged per standard HostColor's managed service provider (MSP) rates.
