Compliance

Varidata is committed to transparent and secure handling of all personal data on our network. Our processes have gone through an extensive procedural and legal review to ensure we fully meet the requirements of our server locations.

Product Introduction

A dedicated server is known as one of the highest-performance hosting options. We like to think of a dedicated server like owning your own house. No one will bother you and you can do whatever you’d like. Whereas a shared server is much like living in condo where you have to share everything.

The Varidata Cloud Server Hosting is a proprietary cloud computing solution based on OpenStack. The essence of what cloud Server is, is scalable, virtualized resources as a service for purchase on a utility basis. You will get dynamic provisioning in a scalable, virtual environment. Resources needed for most projects are available in minutes, giving near-instant access to a new server. Best of all, you can do this without needing to migrate your data or change your server settings.

The CN2 server means your server network connects to the world through the Direct China routes with CN2.

The High Bandwidth Server means your server comes with dedicated bandwidth with over 100 Mbps for high traffic services such as video streaming and a demanding high-bandwidth applications.

A GPU server is a type of computing service with a GPU card that provides fast, stable, and flexible computing, being used in various application scenarios such as video encoding and decoding, deep learning, scientific, etc.

SEO server hosting is an SEO strategy of hosting a website, or websites, across multiple IPs.

All servers have a basic firewall feature, and choosing an Anti-DDoS Server means that your server has better capacity against DDoS attacks

Network

In other words, a quicker route to mainland China.

Conversely, if you have no latency or speed requirements for traffic flowing to Mainland China, then this is your best option.

Designed from the ground up as the next generation, IPv6-cable Internet backbone successor to China Telecom’s ChinaNet network, CN2 is an advanced MPLS-optimized infrastructure that leverages new softswitches and protocols to ensure not only high performance, but also support for legacy traffic (such as Frame Relay and ATM) and new IP services over a single IP/MPLS network.

Means China Telecom, China Unicom, China Mobile

Tier 1 transit providers have a global reach and they are the backbone of the Internet. They do not buy transit service, and they peer with each other at zero cost. Tier-1 networks connect Tier-2 and Tier-3 (lower tiers) ISPs and they charge lower tier ISPs to allow traffic to transit their networks.

Border Gateway Protocol (BGP) is the postal service of the Internet. When someone drops a letter into a mailbox, the Postal Service processes that piece of mail and chooses a fast, efficient route to deliver that letter to its recipient. Similarly, when someone submits data via the Internet, BGP is responsible for looking at all of the available paths that data could travel and picking the best route, which usually means hopping between autonomous systems.

A private network is any connection within a specified network wherein restrictions are established to promote a secured environment. This type of network can be configured in such a way that devices outside the network cannot access it. Only a selected set of devices can access this type of network depending on the settings encoded in the network routers and access points.

Network redundancy is a communications pathway that has additional links to connect all nodes in case one link goes down.

DDoS Protection

You have to order a DDoS-filtered IP for DDoS protection. It can be done in your initial order or the Client Area. Please order a filtered IP here. You will receive an email with more information after ordering.

DDoS mitigation refers to the process of successfully protecting a targeted server or network from a distributed denial-of-service (DDoS) attack. By utilizing specially designed network equipment or a cloud-based protection service, a targeted victim is able to mitigate the incoming threat.

‘Always-on’ and ‘On-demand’ are two opposite terms referring to the DDoS mitigation cloud service. In an Always-on deployment, the service or network is constantly being protected by the DDoS mitigation service, while in On-demand there is no protection most of the time, and the DDoS mitigation layer is inserted only under a DDoS attack or severe threat.

DDoS Protection is an add-on service.We will provide a quote based on your protection requirements or you could choose the pre-configure anti-ddos options on upgrade order.
