Dedicated Servers with Full Management

Meet Compliance and Reliability standards with Fully Managed Dedicated Servers.

SSAE16 Audited All of our fully managed dedicated servers come with our 100% network uptime SLA, 3rd party SSAE16/SAS70 audit, are located in our own redundant data center (using a completely carbon neutral infrastructure) in downtown Chicago, IL, and supported by our own dedicated on-site 24/7 staff. There aren't any unmanaged dedicated servers in our facilities, as we provide a prompt and high level of support with all systems, but our fully managed servers come with even more extras, like unlimited system administration time, pro-active monitoring, and additional security services. All servers come with our InterNAP optimized High Performance Network utilizing Level(3), NTT, Tinet, and nLayer bandwidth and supplemented with over 200 local peering agreements.

In stock systems will be setup within 12 hours of payment being processed, but making hardware modifications may prevent us from delivering a system within this time frame. If you need a server other than what is listed please email sales as we have several other systems still in stock.

Fully Managed services included:

To clarify, the "proactive response to service/server outage" means that we will monitor the services on your system and take whatever action is necessary to resume those services. No intervention on your part is required, which helps to maintain your server uptime even when you're not available.

Proactive Zenoss Monitoring

Our reliable Zenoss monitoring system will monitor various services and resource usage levels on your managed dedicated server, alerting our team of expert support technicans of any issues or service outages that may occur. We can monitor any number of services or resource levels, guaranteeing that your managed dedicated server is responsive at all times. Instead of being woken up at 2AM because of a service outage, we can respond to and resolve these issues for you and giving you increased uptime and productivity.

PCI/HIPAA Compliance

With our fully managed server platforms we can assist you in meeting the requirements for PCI, HIPAA, SOX, or other government/regulatory complaince. The primary concerns for such complaince requirements are:

If you require PCI DSS, HIPA, or similar compliance please contact our sales department for free consulting regarding a compliant solution.

We highly recommend CentOS 6, but can install a wide array of Linux distributions (Debian, Ubuntu, Fedora, etc.), FreeBSD, or even custom OS images through IPMI. Windows 2008 Web Edition can also be installed for an additional $20 a month. Parallels Plesk Panel (10 domain license), Interworx (35 domain license), and DirectAdmin6 control panels can be installed for free on our dedicated servers. Larger licenses for Parallels Panel and Interworx can also be installed for additional fees as well as cPanel, which you can find at the bottom of this page. Interworx and cPanel are our prefered control panels and will yield the highest levels of support. All dedicated servers come standard with 1 usable IPv4 IP and 1 usable IPv6 IP. Up to 8 additional IPv4 IPs or 1.6 x 1019 IPv6 IPs can be requested at no additional charge by emailing us at ips@steadfast.net. All IP allocations require proper ARIN justification. Additional RAM, hard drives, and IPs can also be purchased. Bandwidth overages are billed at $0.35 per GB.

  1. A major problem is when the service/application is completely unresponsive or unusable. Any further assistance will need to count towards system administration time. Pre-installed software includes the control panel and any other software installed by the control panel such as web, database, and email services.
  2. System Administration includes almost any services not listed, such as optimizing Apache, assisting with/repairing PHP scripts, transferring data, etc. System administration does not include script coding and we do not guarantee being able to resolve issues with 3rd party or other unsupported software. Additional system administration is billed at $80 an hour. All system administration is calculated in 30 minute increments.
  3. Parallels Plesk Plus includes Parallels Plesk Panel for Unlimited Domains, Parallels Plesk Power Pack, Parallels Sitebuilder for 100 Sites, and Parallels Plesk Billing for 1000 Accounts.
  4. Please note that all IP allocations must be justified. To help reduce the risk of abuse, IPs used for proxies, email marketing, large scale virtual or web hosting and SEO may be subject to additional verification and analysis. We reserve the right to charge additionally for IP space based on the risk factors involved in the justification provided.
  5. All VLANs are configured by default with VRRP or HSRP, which improves redundancy but consumes two additional IPs per subnet. Each subnet will lose 5 IPs from the count indicated in the "Additional IPs" table. Please see our knowledgebase for more information.
  6. The software is unsupported. We provide the licensing for your convenience but no management services are included. Support is done directly through the related communities.
