# What a server includes

> Exactly what comes with a DediGPU server: the hardware, the network, the access, the software, and what is deliberately not included.

A server is a physical machine, built around its cards, that nobody else uses while you rent it. The catalogue lists what each card brings with it; this page says what that means in practice.

## Hardware

- **GPUs:** The whole card: no vGPU profile, no time-slicing, no MIG unless you configure it yourself. On SXM nodes the full NVLink fabric between your cards; on eight-card nodes, 3.2 Tbps InfiniBand towards other nodes.
- **CPU and RAM:** Dedicated cores and ECC memory sized per card: a H100 SXM comes with 20 vCPU and 192 GB, times the number of cards.
- **Storage:** Local NVMe, 1.5 TB per H100 SXM card, as a single device. RAID-1 on request when you add extra NVMe.
- **Out-of-band:** An IPMI console with power control and virtual media, reachable through the region's jump host.

## Network

- **Port:** 10 Gbit/s on workstation and consumer cards, 25 Gbit/s on PCIe data-centre cards, 100 Gbit/s on SXM nodes. Unmetered.
- **Addresses:** One public IPv4 with reverse DNS. Up to eight more at $3 each per month.
- **Egress:** $0. The transit share is a line of the cost sheet; bytes are not metered.
- **Firewall:** None in front of the server. Everything you run is reachable unless you firewall it. Outbound port 25 is closed by default.

## Access

Root over SSH from the first minute, with your keys or a generated password. An API token per account. The console for everything else: reboot, rename, term, renewal, cancellation, tickets.

## Software

The operating system and template you chose, installed and running before you log in, with the driver and toolkit versions listed on the [templates page](https://dedigpu.com/templates). A serving template pulls the model you named before first boot.

## What is not included, on purpose

- **Backups.** We keep none. Your data lives on the server's NVMe and nowhere else.
- **Managed services.** We do not administer the operating system. We answer questions about the hardware, the network and the platform.
- **A control plane that can read your data.** We see power, link state and a port answering; we do not log in.
- **Priority tiers.** Everyone gets the same hardware, the same network and the same support.
