Madrid Dedicated Servers - FAQ

What is aŃ… Madrid Dedicated Hosting Provider?
A "Madrid Dedicated Hosting Provider" is a company that offers dedicated hosting services from data centers located in Madrid, Spain.
Many of the world's largest Tier 3 and Tier 4 facilities, owned by Digital Realty, Equinix, nLighten, CyrusOne, Iron Mountain, IPCore, Adam MAD, Gnet, Edge Madrid, It Nexus, Nabiax, Global Switch, AtlasEdge, Form8tion, PureDC and many other IT facilities are located in the Madrid metropolitan area. They enable cloud infrastructure providers to deliver application services throughout Southwest Europe with an average round-trip latency of 1ms to 10ms.
What is the security level of my Madrid Dedicated Server?
Bare Metal Servers and Dedicated Cloud Hosting infrastructure providers in general, and those in Madrid in particular, offer the following levels of security with their dedicated hosting services:
1. Physical Environment Security
Physical environment security refers to all physical aspects of the Madrid data center facilities used to house bare metal servers. This includes the resilience against natural disasters, the physical design of the data center and the way the server rooms and cabinets are organized, as well as power redundancy, Internet network redundancy, and overall business continuity.
2. Network Security
Network security is part of the overall data center communications architecture. It includes the redundancy of fiber connectivity routes and the wide choice of ISPs and interconnection options.
3. Physical Server Security
This can also be referred to as "Bare Metal Server Security". It refers to the specific hardware components and configurations of the server that increase its uptime. These include the number of power supplies (PSUs) used, the number and capacity of network interface cards (NICs), the number and specification of hard drives used (SATA, SAS, SSD, NMVe, etc.), the use of RAID controllers, the Intelligent Platform Management Interface (IPMI, also known as ILO and iDrac by server vendors) for remote network access to the Madrid-based server, etc.
As a provider of Madrid Bare Metal Servers, HC automatically covers the highest possible industry standards regarding "Physical Environment Security" and "Network Security". Physical Server Security is a customizable element of the dedicated hosting server that is selected by the user of the physical server (i.e. the customer).
Most of our Madrid dedicated servers include the following "Physical Server Security" by default:
  • Redundant Power Supplies (PSUs)
  • At least 2 x 1 Gbps physical Network Interface Cards (NICs)
  • Intelligent Platform Management Interface (IPMI) and IPMI capabilities, except for Edge servers, which are accessible only through SSH management access and cannot be restored in the event of an operating system (OS) failure that renders the server inoperable.
Are there unlimited bandwidth dedicated servers in Madrid?
Yes, if by "unlimited bandwidth" you mean no restrictions on incoming and outgoing Internet traffic and no charges for data transfer used. Each dedicated server in Madrid comes with a certain virtual or physical capacity of the Internet connection port, chosen by the server user. It varies from 250 Mbps to 100 Gbps. There are no limitations or restrictions on the used bandwidth used or data transfer quotas, up to the capacity of the Internet connection port, selected by our clients.
Unless otherwise stated, all Madrid dedicated hosting services offered by HostColor feature "unlimited bandwidth up to the capacity of the Internet connection port". This is also called "unmetered bandwidth", which is actually a more accurate term.
"Unmetered Bandwidth" or "dedicated server with unmetered bandwidth" means that the hosting provider does not measure the bandwidth used by the server. In Madrid and most of its other Edge data center locations HostColor allows its customers to use the full capacity of the physical Internet bandwidth port of their dedicated servers.
Is my Madrid dedicated server safe from DDoS attacks?
Denial of Service (DoS) and Distributed Denial of Service (DDoS) attacks typically result in service unavailability and thousands of dollars in data transfer service fees, especially if you host your IT infrastructure with one of the major hyperscale cloud providers.
HostColor's DDoS-protected dedicated servers in Madrid minimize the risk of service unavailability and virtually eliminate the risk of you incurring data transfer costs as a result of artificial, bot-generated traffic to your server instances.
When you use our Madrid dedicated servers, your applications run behind sophisticated DDoS protection firewalls, maximizing application availability. Our natural, enterprise-grade, DDoS-protected networks safeguard your NY dedicated server from unexpected network downtime, preventing loss of business and revenue. Our DDoS-protected network services filter out malicious traffic and ensure that legitimate traffic requests reach your servers and applications. Specifically, our DDoS protection includes the following capabilities:
  • Real-time mitigation of malicious attacks
  • Human-generated traffic that reaches your Madrid dedicated server
  • Native protection against network attacks of any size
  • No additional fees or charges for DoS and DDoS protected servers and infrastructure
  • No fees for bot-generated and malicious traffic on all unmetered dedicated servers and dedicated clouds in Madrid
  • No increased latency and long round-trip delays in application delivery in the event of a network attack
  • All IPv4 and IPv6 settings are protected from DDoS attacks
Can I have a dedicated cloud infrastructure in Madrid?
You can use your preferred cloud computing virtualization technology to create and deploy a dedicated cloud infrastructure on a single bare metal server or a cluster of servers. If you want to use two dedicated bare metal servers, they can be directly interconnected using 1GE or 10GE NIC cards. If you need HostColor's help to create a cloud computing architecture, we can help you design one, deploy it, and manage it as needed.
All Madrid bare metal servers can use Proxmox VE, VMware ESXi, Linux Containers, VirtualBox, OpenVZ, Microsoft Hyper-V, Kubernetes, Docker, or other virtualization platforms.
Can I host Docker and Kubernetes containers in Madrid?
Yes. You can create and host dedicated cloud infrastructure based on Docker and Kubernetes in Madrid data centers and host containerized applications on it.
HostColor's Madrid bare metal and cloud infrastructure allows organizations to deploy run, scale up, scale down, and quickly move Docker containers and the containerized applications from one virtual containerized environment to another without interruption. Docker containers are executable software packages that contain everything needed to run an application: code, runtime, system tools, system libraries, and settings.
HC also enables enterprises to deploy a fully isolated, dedicated cloud infrastructure for hosting and orchestrating containerized applications, based on the Kubernetes open source platform for managing containerized workloads and services.
Can I have a server with AMD processor in Madrid?
Yes, we offer AMD-powered dedicated servers in a number of data centers in the Madrid metropolitan area. We have both AMD Ryzen and AMD EPYC processor based servers in the following Spain facilities:
  • Digital Realty MAD1, Albasanz 71-73, Madrid, 28037
If you need a server with AMD CPUs in Madrid, please either select a server from the configurations listed above, or go to our AMD Dedicated Servers section and select one.
Is business continuity possible on my Madrid Server?
Yes, you can do this using virtualization technology such as Proxmox VE. Proxmox provides a software stack called the HA Manager that automatically detects failures and provides automatic failover.
The Proxmox VE HA Manager acts as an "automated" administrator. After resources (VMs, containers, etc.) are configured, the HA Manager monitors them for proper functionality and handles service failover to a redundant Madrid server in case of failure or downtime. The HA manager can also handle normal user requests to start, stop, move, and migrate a service.
But it's not just Proxmox VE. There are many other technologies that enable the use of two or more physical servers to provide business continuity for IT infrastructure and hosted applications. Microsoft Windows Hyper V also allows server owners to create a high availability cluster.
Is there technical support available for my Madrid server?
All HostColor dedicated servers in Madrid come with "Free Infrastructure Support". HostColor never charges you for access to infrastructure technical support. Unlike the large hyperscale clouds like AWS, Azure and others, that charge their customers for access to technical support for their bare-metal or cloud infrastructure.
Our infrastructure technical support covers everything related to network interfaces and the core functionality of the physical components of your Madrid bare-metal dedicated server such as CPU, RAM, and storage drives. With our free infrastructure support, you can save money and have access to the technical support you need for the core components and network functions of your server in Madrid, Spain.
Please note that the "Free Infrastructure Support" does not include support for the operating system (OS), any custom configurations created and maintained by the customer, and the installed software applications.
In addition to the "Free Infrastructure Support" HostColor takes the dedicated hosting services it provides to a new level of reliability with its "Semi-Managed Dedicated Servers" support.
What does a Semi-Managed Dedicated Server mean?
While most dedicated hosting providers offer "Unmanaged" or "Managed" hosting services, HostColor does "Semi-Managed" and "Managed" Dedicated Servers.
"Unmanaged" means that the client is solely responsible for the management of the bare-metal dedicated server they have. The provider's responsibility is to make sure that the server network connection works properly and in case of a hardware failure, to fix the failed components, or to replace the whole physical server.
"Managed" means that the provider is responsible for managing the network, the physical server, the installed operating system, and the software environment. The provider does operating system updates, software updates, and other management and configuration tasks on the physical server. In other words unmanaged dedicated servers do not feature server-side support and therefore the clients pay for the base infrastructure service. The 'Managed Dedicated Servers' feature full server-side infrastructure, OS, and software environment support and therefore are more expensive, as the provider's experts commit time and work hours to deliver technical and system administration.
HostColor fills the gap by offering "Semi-Managed" Dedicated Servers in Madrid. "Semi-Managed" means that our administrators install your preferred OS on the physical server or your preferred virtualization platform to transform the physical server into a Cloud infrastructure. We create a custom technology environment per your requirements and keep on record a description with the 'base desired state' of your dedicated server in Spain. As a part of the "Semi-Managed" support contract, HostColor reinstalls the server OS per the request and helps the client fix issues and troubleshoot in case of any operating system, networking, or software configuration issues. All "Semi-Managed" dedicated servers in Madrid feature up to 30 minutes per month of technical and system administration. Any time spent by HC experts on managing the server OS, software environments, or troubleshooting will be charged at HostColor's standard managed service rates.
Is there technical support available for my Madrid server?
All HostColor dedicated servers in Madrid come with "Free Infrastructure Support". HostColor never charges you for access to infrastructure technical support. Unlike the large hyperscalers like AWS, Azure and others, that charge their customers for access to technical support for their bare-metal or cloud infrastructure.
Our infrastructure technical support covers everything related to network interfaces and the core functionality of the physical components of your Madrid bare-metal dedicated server such as CPU, RAM, and storage drives.

What is the delivery time for my dedicated server in Madrid?
This depends on the specific Madrid metro data center you choose and the specific server configuration you require. For our most frequently used Madrid data center locations, it takes up to 1 hour to install your dedicated server and send the login credentials as a welcome email in your account and to the email address registered in your account. More specifically:
  • During business hours (9:00 am - 5:00 pm local time) 30 minutes - 1 hour server delivery time
  • .
  • Outside the business hours (5:00 pm - 9:00 am local time): 2 hours - 9 hours server delivery time (with an average delivery time of 4 hours)
  • Weekends: 1 hour - 24 hours server delivery time (with an average delivery time of 8 hours)
The lowest average delivery time applies to dedicated servers in Madrid that use a standard Linux operating system (OS) such as Ubuntu, Debian, AlmaLinux, Rocky Linux, or virtualization platforms such as ProxMox or VMware, and the CPU, RAM, and storage disks listed in the server plan, as well as the default IPv4 and IPv4 IP address settings.
Which OS can I use on my Dedicated Server in Madrid?
There is a wider choice of Linux distributions such as Ubuntu, Debian, Rocky Linux, Alma Linux, Microsoft Windows OS and virtualization technologies such as Proxmox VE and VMware ESXi, etc. in all the other Madrid data centers where HostColor offers dedicated server hosting services.
Are Madrid dedicated server resources scalable?
The computing resources provided as part of the Madrid Dedicated Hosting service - processing power (CPU), random access memory (RAM), storage capacity used by the IT environment and applications configured on the bare metal server, the amount of data transferred, and the overall network bandwidth rate - can be scaled up to the physical limits of the physical processor, RAM, storage drive(s), and network interface cards (NICs) of the selected hardware configuration.
Depending on the selected physical server system, RAM can be upgraded to the maximum amount supported by the server motherboard. For some Madrid Dedicated Servers, storage drives (HDD, SATA, SAS, SSD, or NMVe) can be upgraded without powering down the physical machine. Increasing network bandwidth quotas may require powering down the server and adding additional NIC cards.
Can I upgrade the RAM on my Madrid Dedicated Server?
Yes, RAM upgrades vary depending on the processor model, motherboard, and hardware configuration selected.
Madrid Dedicated Server configurations listed with 16GB or 32GB of RAM are typically upgradeable to 64GB of RAM.
All servers listed with 32 GB of RAM or 64 GB of RAM are typically upgradeable to 128 GB of RAM, and in some cases to 256 GB of RAM.
Servers listed with 128 GB RAM can be upgraded to 512 GB RAM or even 1024 GB RAM.
Can I upgrade the storage capacity of my Madrid Server?
This depends on the hardware configuration of your Madrid Dedicated Server. If you feel that you need to increase the storage capacity that you use on the road, we suggest that you speak to the HC team about the possibility of leasing a server that has spare HDD bays that can be upgraded with the storage of your choice. In general, all dedicated servers in Madrid that are provisioned with one (1x) storage drive - either NMVe, SSD or HDD - can be upgraded.
Can I run Virtual Machines on my Madrid Dedicated Server?
You can use Proxmox VE, VMware ESXi, Linux Containers, VirtualBox, OpenVZ, Kubernetes, Docker, or any other virtualization platform to run virtual machines (VMs), virtual private servers (VPSs), or containers. If you prefer to use VMs with Ubuntu as the underlying server operating system (OS), you can use the Virtual Machine Manager (VMM) virtualization technology in the Ubuntu 20 (or Ubuntu 22) OS to create, run, and manage virtual machines with Linux or Windows operating systems.
Can I have a Cloud PC on HC servers in Madrid?
If you need a Cloud PC in Madrid with a Microsoft Windows operating system, we will provide you with a bare-metal server with Proxmox VE virtualization platform. It will allow you to have multiple Madrid-based Cloud PCs (aka Remote Desktops), each running Microsoft Windows 10 or Windows 11. They can be accessed securely via Microsoft Remote Desktop Protocol (RDP).
If you want to use a Linux-based Cloud PC, we recommend Peppermint OS. It is based on the Debian/Devuan repositories.
How does HC assign IP addresses on the Madrid Server?
Clients with dedicated servers in Madrid are assigned 1 usable IP address and can add additional IPs at any time. Additional IP addresses or subnets can be ordered from Accounts.HostColor.com and can be used for different services on your server.
How does HostColor charge for my Spanish Dedicated Server?

There are a few things to consider when customizing your cloud-ready dedicated server in Madrid:
Bandwidth & Data Transfer

Bandwidth & Data Transfer

HC delivers dedicated servers in Madrid measured by the allocated "Bandwidth" quota (in Mbps or Gbps) and servers that are measured by the transmitted "Data Transfer" (in terabytes). Most of our Dedicated Servers in Madrid are measured by the allocated bandwidth and feature a fixed bandwidth rate between 250 Mbps and 100 Gbps. The clients of those servers never pay for the used data transfer in gigabytes (GB) or terabytes (TB). HostColor's Madrid-hosted servers, measured by the allocated "Bandwidth" and all Unmetered Servers save our customers between a couple of thousands and tens of thousands of dollars on an annual basis.
Linux-based Edge Server

Linux or Microsoft Windows Servers in Madrid

Our high-bandwidth, unmetered dedicated servers in Madrid can be used with any Linux distribution, Microsoft Windows OS, or virtualization technologies such as Proxmox VE and VMware ESXi, etc.
Server Access & Management

Madrid Dedicated Server Access & Management

All other Madrid dedicated server configurations come with Intelligent Platform Management Interface (IPMI) remote server management interfaces, unless other specified. This is a separate management interface that allows remote control of the bare metal server, independent of the operating system. IPMI allows administrators to check server health, remotely manage power settings, and power cycle a server, if it's not running.
Business Continuity

Business Continuity Scenario Add-on

HostColor provides you with an IPMI/ILO/IDRAC remote management interface (unless otherwise specified in the server order). The remote management interface allows you to restart and troubleshoot the server in the event of a failure.
