HostColor Launches New AI-Ready Cloud and Bare Metal Servers in Miami Data Centers

HostColor.com (HC), a cloud and bare-metal infrastructure provider, has introduced a new portfolio of AI-ready, edge-hosted infrastructure solutions in its Miami data centers.

The upgraded platforms are engineered to support resource-intensive AI applications and latency-sensitive workloads across the Miami–Fort Lauderdale–West Palm Beach metropolitan area.

Dedicated Bare Metal and Virtual Dedicated Servers at Edge
HostColor’s Miami Dedicated Servers and Virtual Dedicated Server (VDS) platforms deliver single-tenant, fully dedicated cloud computing environments deployed on demand using Microsoft Windows Server, Linux OSs, Proxmox VE, VMware ESXi, or other enterprise virtualization technologies. Unlike standard cloud servers that rely on shared resources, HC’s VDS platforms guarantee dedicated CPU, memory, and storage resources.

All Miami-based Bare Metal Servers and VDS configurations allow organizations to use unmetered bandwidth from 250Mb up to 20Gb. ‘Unmetered’ means HC does not measure or restrict bandwidth use, enabling customers to consume the full physical capacity of their network ports and enjoy unlimited data transfer up to the port’s maximum throughput.

Customizable AI-Ready Infrastructure
Users can customize their Miami-hosted bare metal and virtual dedicated servers by selecting an OS (Linux or Microsoft Windows), storage type (SSD or NVMe), VPN settings, and IPv4 and IPv6 address combinations. The company’s customers can also choose a VDS powered by AMD EPYC or Ryzen processors, as well as Nvidia, Hailo-8 AI, or Google Coral AI accelerator toolkits.

The Coral toolkit is designed to support the development and deployment of ML applications at the ‘edge.’ It operates locally on edge-dedicated server appliances, eliminating the need for major cloud service application networks. At the core of the Coral toolkit is the Google Edge TPU, a custom ASIC designed for high-speed, low-power ML inference using TensorFlow Lite models.

The Hailo-8 AI is an AI accelerator. When used with a Miami-hosted VDS, it can perform AI tasks such as object detection and video analytics for autonomous vehicles, smart cities, and industrial automation. The company’s VDSs with the Hailo-8 AI offer real-time neural network inference at high speeds. These servers host industrial-grade camera devices and robotic systems.

Thanks to their GPU computing capacity, both bare metal and virtual dedicated servers can effectively handle large data sets. This makes them for AI-driven applications, software automation platforms, and large, complex database management systems that require data processing. They are also well-suited for various HPC workloads.

The firm’s customers benefit from unmetered bandwidth and unlimited data transfer up to the full capacity of their VDS internet connection. The company does not charge for internet traffic, IOPS, DNS lookups, DNS zones, internet traffic zones, or technical support for infrastructure. As a result, HostColor customers save significant financial resources. All firm’s VDS plans allow customers to create technology service environments that are fully compatible with major hyperscale cloud infrastructures, including AWS, Microsoft Azure, and Google Cloud.

The company recently announced the availability of a wide range of AMD dedicated server configurations, as well as custom-built, high-bandwidth, AI-ready GPU dedicated servers with 10, 20, and 25Gb unmetered bandwidth ports. These servers are available in the firm’s Miami-based cloud infrastructure delivery centers.

Free Infrastructure Technical Support
HostColor does not charge for access to technical support for the core functionality of its Virtual Dedicated Servers (VDS). As part of its Service Level Agreement (SLA), HostColor provides VDS with ‘Free Infrastructure Technical Support’ (FITS). FITS covers the core functionality of the virtual network interfaces. However, it does not cover maintenance and support for OS, custom configurations, or installed software applications. These are covered by the next level of SLA-defined technical support: Semi-Managed VDS.

Semi-Managed Virtual Dedicated Servers
According to the firm’s Service Level Agreement (SLA), the company’s entire line of virtual dedicated server hosting services is ‘Semi-Managed.’ The provider is responsible for installing and configuring server instances according to the customer’s custom Linux infrastructure configurations. Upon request, HC Support will reinstall the OS, configure and manage network settings, create and maintain VPNs, and help customers troubleshoot OS, network, or software configuration issues on the server side.
