Cartika offers dedicated servers with a minimum of 4 CPU cores and 12GB RAM and a minimum RAID1 configuration with redundant components and power. Customers requiring less resources are better suited utilizing VPS servers, VPS Clusters, Cloud Servers or Cloud Clusters. A VPS or Cloud Server/Cluster is more cost effective, reliable and redundant as compared to any lower end dedicated server. As a result, our lowest end dedicated server is a configuration that presents value to customers and is a legitimate entry level point for dedicated servers. Customers requiring less resources then we have available in our entry level dedicated server offering are encouraged to consider VPS servers or Cloud Servers and can compare a VPS Cluster and a Cloud Cluster to a low or mid grade dedicated server.
