Why dinCloud Hosted Virtual Servers?
dinCloud Hosted Virtual Server Benefits
dinCloud built its hosted virtual server offering from the ground up with ‘cloud’ in mind. Security, control, usability were all key features. But most of all, you will get the support you need to migrate to the cloud, and the flexibility from us as your service provider, to work within YOUR business parameters.

dinServer Benefits
We don’t offer just a bunch of infrastructures in the cloud- we help you get onto the cloud. This is an important differentiator we offer. We will hand hold you through planning, migration, and on-going support should you require it.


Access
Administrators maintain complete access and visibility into dinCloud infrastructure, from end user utilization down to the command line.


Elasticity
When there is a change in business needs, instantly scale resources up or down via dinManage, dinCloud’s cloud provisioning and orchestration platform.


Security
Inherent dinCloud security measures include a dedicated virtual firewall for every server, daily data snapshots to supplement backups, 2-factor authentication for VPN users, secure border routing, a dedicated SSL gateway, data encryption and more.


Reliability
dinCloud infrastructure has built-in business continuity/disaster recovery considerations. Data is stored and replicated to a remote data center. In the event of an outage, failover is automated to another remote location.


Performance
dinServers are incredibly powerful – running at an average speed that is more than twice as fast as the virtual server competition.


Transparent Pricing
Most providers sneak in hidden costs in the form of data transfer fees, typically encountered during a migration. dinCloud offers flat rate pricing with no hidden costs or fees!
