Learn when it’s time to switch to a dedicated server and what benefits you’ll reap from doing so. We provide data-driven insights and an overview of the technical aspects involved in this transition.

How did we create our LLM benchmark for GPU servers using Ollama? We developed a script, tested it with DeepSeek R1, and configured the necessary contexts. We identified some patterns and compared the performance of different GPUs, all of which are now available on GitHub.

The cloud is a flexible and cost-effective solution that adapts to demand, enabling businesses to grow without unnecessary expenses. Through a simple yet realistic example, we demonstrate how cloud services work internally and why they often outperform traditional hosting in certain situations.

The new version of Debian 13 and the release of Proxmox VE 9.0 came out almost simultaneously, generating significant interest from customers. In this article, we detail how the HOSTKEY team adapted their processes, automated deployments, and prepared their infrastructure for these new releases.

Do you still rely on cloud services despite paying for them? If your budget is at least €50 per year, a dedicated server could be more cost-effective. Please review the checklist and the comparative tests between cloud and bare-metal solutions.
