Why is only Linux available on Georgian servers?
The Tbilisi facility provisions its dedicated servers with Linux distributions, which cover the needs of most web hosting, application and VPN projects without licence fees. Linux also runs very efficiently on the dual Xeon hardware used at this location. If your workload depends on Windows software, you could run it inside a virtual machine using a hypervisor such as Proxmox, provided you supply your own valid licence, or choose a Windows-ready location such as Turkey or the UAE. Our team is happy to help you evaluate which approach works best for your application.
Which Georgian plan is better for databases?
For database workloads we recommend the 32 GB configuration with the additional 500 GB SSD. The extra memory allows the database engine to cache more data, reducing disk reads, and the solid-state drive provides much faster random access than SAS disks. You can keep the operating system and logs on the mirrored SAS pair and store database files on the SSD. The 16 GB plan works well for web servers, VPNs and smaller databases, especially when you tune caching carefully.
What payment methods can I use for Tbilisi hosting?
We accept Visa and Mastercard cards, PayPal, Bitcoin and Perfect Money for Georgian servers. This range is particularly helpful for international customers, freelancers and companies that prefer cryptocurrency or electronic payment systems. You are billed in dollars each month and can walk away at any renewal. If you would like to pay for several months in advance, contact our billing team and we will prepare a combined invoice for you. Perfect Money is popular with customers across the former Soviet region, and Bitcoin payments are confirmed automatically once the network registers them.
How secure is the Georgian data centre?
The Tbilisi facility follows Tier III design practices with redundant power and cooling, controlled physical access and a perimeter firewall with intrusion detection monitoring. These measures protect the infrastructure and help block common network threats. Inside your own server, security is your responsibility: keep the operating system updated, use SSH keys, configure a local firewall such as nftables or UFW, and monitor logs. Our engineers can advise on hardening steps if you would like guidance. Fail2ban and automatic security updates are two simple steps that stop most opportunistic attacks.
Is unmetered traffic suitable for streaming or downloads?
Yes. Nobody tallies your gigabytes here; the gigabit port is yours to keep busy all month, provided the traffic is lawful. That makes Tbilisi servers suitable for file distribution, media streaming, software mirrors and backups. The policy prohibits abuse such as spam and attacks, and extreme sustained usage that affects other customers may be discussed with you. For typical high-traffic websites and services, there are no restrictions. A mirror for Georgian Linux users or a media library for a local broadcaster are good examples of workloads that fit this plan well.
How long will it take to receive my Tbilisi server?
Delivery usually takes between one and three days after payment is confirmed, depending on hardware availability. Georgian stock is more limited than in larger markets, and one of the configurations may occasionally be sold out. Stock in Tbilisi is small, so ping sales before paying and we will lock one in. Once ready, you receive an email with your IP address and root credentials. Georgian public holidays, such as Orthodox Christmas in early January, can occasionally add a day. We will always tell you the expected date before charging.
Can I run a VPN service from Georgia?
You can operate VPN endpoints for your team or your own use, and many customers do exactly that. If you plan to run a commercial VPN service for the public, please tell us before ordering so we can review the expected traffic and abuse handling process. All usage must comply with Georgian law and our acceptable use policy, which forbids spam, attacks, fraud and illegal content. With unmetered gigabit bandwidth, Tbilisi servers handle typical VPN loads comfortably. WireGuard and OpenVPN both run efficiently on the twelve-core hardware.
Can I host websites for tourists visiting Georgia?
Absolutely. Tourism is a major part of Georgia's economy, and hotels, tour operators and restaurants benefit from fast websites that work well for both local users and international visitors researching trips. A Tbilisi server keeps pages quick for people already in Georgia, while visitors from Europe and the Middle East still enjoy reasonable load times. Combining local hosting with a CDN for images can give travellers anywhere a smooth browsing experience. Multilingual sites in Georgian, English and Russian are common in this sector, and all of them can live happily on one server.
