What is a server?
A server is a computer, much like a home PC, but built with more resources and more powerful hardware; very large ones are sometimes called supercomputers. Servers sit in datacenters and server rooms, which need proper conditions such as controlled temperature, power generators and solid concrete construction. Servers come in three types, virtual, dedicated and cloud, and can be managed or unmanaged.
Iran server
A Mizbandade server in Iran sits in a datacenter built to international standards, with a dedicated Iranian IP. It's the best choice for websites and apps whose users are in Iran: thanks to its location it loads faster with lower ping, and it costs less than a server abroad.
International server
An international server is one hosted in a datacenter outside the country, for example in the United States, Germany, the Netherlands or France. They're especially useful for trading crypto or reaching sites that are blocked from Iran.
Dedicated server
With a dedicated server, all the hardware, including the CPU, RAM and storage, is yours alone. On a VPS you share resources, but on a dedicated server everything belongs to you. You get more speed and security, at a higher cost.
Virtual server
A virtual private server (VPS) is a service offered by hosting companies. They use virtualization software such as VMware, Hyper-V or KVM to split a physical server, and part of its resources is allocated to you, shared with other users. You use your chosen operating system on the physical server's hardware and manage your VPS yourself. With a VPS you no longer need to worry about where to keep a server or how to secure it: you buy resources and bandwidth in Iran or abroad from a hosting company, install the operating system you need and get going. Another advantage is that a VPS costs less than a dedicated server.
Cloud server
A cloud server is made up of several physical servers connected together, so your server can run across multiple locations. You can scale resources up or down as your needs change, and you only pay for what you use: RAM, CPU, storage and bandwidth (pay as you go). Cloud servers are available in locations such as Iran, the United States and Germany, so you can choose the one closest to your users. Because a cloud server is linked to several machines, if one has a problem you stay online on the others, with no disruption to your business. Cloud servers come with monthly or hourly billing; for developers who need a test environment, an hourly server is the best choice.
Stock trading server
With its high speed and low ping, a stock trading VPS is the best choice for anyone active on the stock market who needs to place opening orders fast.
Operating systems at Mizbandade
Mizbandade's VPS and dedicated servers run powerful operating systems optimized for heavy workloads. With our advanced control panel you choose your operating system when you order: Linux distributions such as Ubuntu, CentOS and Kali, or Windows Server 2016, 2019, 2022 and more. For network routing, private networks and IT specialists, MikroTik is available too.
Linux servers
Linux is one of the most popular operating systems for a VPS, largely because it's open source and free. It's also a cut above Windows on security, and you can tighten it further with various firewalls. Linux servers are used almost everywhere: personal servers, tunnelling, network security and more. Regular updates keep Linux secure and fast.
Windows servers
A Windows VPS runs Windows Server, available in several versions such as 2016, 2019 and 2022. Windows servers, virtual or dedicated, are mostly used for Microsoft applications and ASP.NET. Keep in mind that Windows needs more resources. It's widely used for game servers, file servers, web hosting and more.
MikroTik servers
A MikroTik VPS is based on RouterOS and is used mainly for network management, routing and internet service providers. It gives you every feature of a hardware router, so there's no need to spend money on one.
Debian server
Debian is one of the most trusted and stable Linux distributions, and a good choice for critical servers. Its minimal footprint, precise package management and long-term stability make a Debian VPS a great fit for datacenters, network management and cloud servers.
Ubuntu server
Ubuntu Server is one of the most popular Linux distributions, valued for its security and easy management. It's built for powerful servers and has become a go-to for developers, system administrators and businesses that need stability and strong security.
CentOS server
CentOS is a Linux distribution based on Red Hat, known for high stability, strong security and compatibility with enterprise software. Businesses, system administrators and developers have relied on it for years, and it's an ideal choice for the DirectAdmin and cPanel control panels.
AlmaLinux server
AlmaLinux is well known for its excellent security and is very useful for security professionals and network administrators. With the software available for it, you can easily secure networks and organizations.
VPS cloud panel
Mizbandade's VPS in Iran and abroad come with a cloud management panel that makes things easy. From your account you can power your server on or off, reboot it or install the operating system you want, and see your server's traffic usage at a glance.
Server control panel
Our servers use cPanel, one of the easiest control panels for managing databases, email accounts, files and resource usage. cPanel also offers many tools for backups and better server management, which makes it especially useful for developers and website owners.
