Database performance bottlenecks almost always come down to two things: storage I/O and memory. On spinning disk, even well-optimised queries stall on seeks. NVMe storage on our EPYC builds removes most of that ceiling — PostgreSQL, MySQL, and MongoDB can run concurrent read/write workloads without waiting on disk.
For in-memory databases like Redis, the constraint is memory capacity and bandwidth. Our AMD EPYC 9000-series dedicated servers go up to 1 TB of DDR5 ECC RAM — enough to hold enormous datasets in memory with headroom for OS and application cache — on DDR5, a generation newer than the DDR4 in our Xeon builds.
With two or more drives you can mirror them in software RAID, so a single drive failure does not take your database offline. Combine that with standard database replication (PostgreSQL streaming replication, MySQL Group Replication, MongoDB replica sets) and your data is protected at both the disk and application layer. Backups remain your job: we do not back up customer servers.
Why Voxa for Database & Storage Servers
NVMe on EPYC builds
Two 1 TB NVMe drives included, up to 24 at checkout. MySQL and PostgreSQL stop waiting on storage.
Up to 1 TB DDR5 RAM
Redis and other in-memory workloads need memory above all else. EPYC 9000-series supports the largest RAM configurations in our lineup.
Your RAID, your way
With full root you can mirror drives in software RAID and layer database replication on top.
Isolated dedicated hardware
No shared tenants, no noisy neighbours competing for IOPS. Every read and write on the server belongs to your database workload.
