Aggregated Bandwidth is a fantastic bandwidth option for our dedicated server customers as you can connect all your servers to a high speed and shared bandwidth among them. It gives you maximum efficiency on costs and operation, and helps you to better manage your high-traffic dedicated infrastructure.
NovoServe provides you the aggregated bandwidth pool option for your dedicated servers deployed by us.
What is Aggregated Bandwidth?
Aggregated bandwidth is a billing model that allows you to bundle all your dedicated servers into a single bandwidth pool. In a conventional model, each server has its own fixed bandwidth allocation. If one server spikes while another sits idle, you are often penalized with overage fees on the active machine despite having "unused" data elsewhere.
With an aggregated pool, the total capacity of all your servers is combined. You only pay for what you use across your entire infrastructure, making your monthly costs significantly more predictable and often much lower than per-server billing.
95th Percentile (P95) Measurement
Our aggregated bandwidth pools utilize the 95th percentile (P95) billing method, also known as burstable billing. This industry-standard approach ignores the top 5% of your traffic peaks—those short-lived bursts of activity—and bills you based on the 95% of your consistent usage.
By adopting P95 measurement, we empower our clients to handle sudden traffic surges without immediate financial penalties. It’s a fantastic product for those who need high-speed connectivity but want to avoid the "all-or-nothing" cost structure of traditional unmetered lines.
Enhance Performance with Private VLANs
To further optimize your dedicated server environment, we support Private VLANs. This feature allows you to separate your external public traffic from your internal server-to-server communications.
By using separate uplinks for internal syncing or database queries, you ensure that your public 10Gbit or 25Gbit ports are 100% available for your users. For video streaming and gaming providers, this means lower latency, higher quality of service, and zero interference from background maintenance tasks.
Flexibility and Cost Management
One of the biggest advantages of an aggregated bandwidth pool is the lack of "upgrade/downgrade" friction. Because you share bandwidth between servers, you don't have to adjust individual contracts every time a single node sees a traffic shift.
With that said, if your business grows, we can also upgrade your total pool size the day after your renewal date to keep your scaling seamless.
If you exceed your pool, we offer transparent options. You can either bill the overage against a new, higher-tier contract rate or pay a standard list price for the excess usage.
