Dedicated Networking

What is Dedicated Networking?

Dedicated Networking ensures your instance operates within an isolated network environment, offering enhanced security and optimized performance. By enabling this feature, you gain:

  • Workaround for SNI Limitations: Dedicated Networking assigns each instance a unique IP address, eliminating the need for SNI (Server Name Indication). This simplifies SSL/TLS configuration and ensures compatibility with older clients.
  • Performance Improvements: Allocates exclusive network resources to your instance, reducing latency and improving reliability.

Dedicated Networking is highly recommended for production environments where performance and uptime are critical. It also provides an effective workaround for SNI limitations.

How to Enable Dedicated Networking

Follow these steps to enable Dedicated Networking for your instance:

  1. Navigate to the Network tab in your instance’s Settings.
  2. Toggle the Dedicated Networking option to ON.
  3. If you have High Availability enabled, you can also toggle Standby Servers to ensure your standby replica benefits from Dedicated Networking.
  4. Save your changes to apply the configuration.

Enabling Dedicated Networking incurs an additional cost of $20/month for each instance. If Standby Servers are enabled, the total cost is $40/month — $20 for the primary instance and $20 for the Replica.
