Intel Xeon Dedicated Servers

An Intel dedicated server is a physical, single-tenant machine where 100% of the hardware resources—CPU, RAM, and Storage—are dedicated to your specific workload. There is no resource sharing and no "noisy neighbors." By choosing Intel Xeon dedicated server architecture, you also gain access to advanced instruction sets like AVX-512, which significantly accelerates heavy computational tasks like encryption, scientific simulations, and AI inference.

The Intel Xeon silver dedicated server line is the "sweet spot" for mid-range enterprise workloads, offering high power efficiency and up to 12 cores per CPU. A Xeon gold dedicated server, however, is built for high-demand environments. Gold processors support higher memory speeds, more memory channels, and significantly higher core counts (up to 26 cores per CPU in Gen10 chassis). If you are running heavy virtualisation or high-traffic SQL databases, Gold is the professional choice.

A dual Xeon dedicated server uses a motherboard with two physical CPU sockets, effectively doubling your core count and memory capacity within a single 1U or 2U chassis. This is essential for "scaling up" applications that require massive parallel processing power. For instance, our dual Intel Xeon Gold configurations can provide up to 52 physical cores and 104 threads, making them perfect for high-density hypervisors (Proxmox/VMware) or high-frequency trading platforms.

We offer a wide spectrum of Intel technology to match any budget. For entry-level or budget-friendly projects, we provide the Intel Xeon E5-2430L (6 cores) in HPE Gen8 chassis. For more modern requirements, we offer the Intel Xeon E5-2650 series (up to 36 cores) in HPE Gen9. Our flagship offerings include Intel Xeon Silver and Intel Xeon Gold processors in HPE Gen10 and Supermicro 2U chassis, providing between 20 and 52 cores per dual-processor system.

Your Intel xeon dedicated server will be hosted in our high-security data centers in the Netherlands (Rotterdam/Amsterdam), Denmark (Copenhagen), or USA (New Jersey/New York). NovoServe is an unmanaged provider, meaning you get full root control and BIOS-level access via secure VPN. While you manage the software, we handle all data center operations, network routing, and hardware maintenance to ensure 100% infrastructure availability.

While AMD offers high core counts, many enterprise software suites (like certain Oracle or Windows Server configurations) are specifically optimised for Intel Xeon architecture. If your application relies on high single-core clock speeds or uses Intel-specific libraries like OneAPI or OpenVINO, an Intel dedicated server will often provide better performance and stability than its competitors.

Intel Xeon servers excel in environments that require high per-thread performance and high reliability. Common use cases include AdTech bidding engines, VPN gateways, streaming media servers, and ERP systems like SAP. They are also the "gold standard" for SQL/NoSQL databases and large-scale virtualization clusters where predictable latency is the most important metric.

We value your time. For our standard Intel Xeon servers listed in the webshop, our automated provisioning system can have your server online and ready for login within 1 to 2 hours. If you require a highly customised build—such as specific NVMe storage arrays or maxed-out RAM—our on-site engineers in the NL, DK, or NY data centers typically complete the deployment within 1 to 2 business days.

Security is baked into our hardware and network. Every Intel Xeon dedicated server is protected by our in-house Anti-DDoS scrubbing centers, which filter malicious traffic before it reaches your OS. Furthermore, since you have a bare metal server, your data is physically isolated from other clients, and features like Intel SGX (Software Guard Extensions) on newer models help protect your application code and data from disclosure or modification.
