Windows Server 2019 and 2022 on AMD Ryzen compute - RDP access from £4.99/mo
About This Feature
Windows VPS hosting from Glitch Servers runs Windows Server 2019 and 2022 on the same AMD Ryzen 9 7950X hardware as our Linux plans, with NVMe Gen4 storage and 100G uplinks. Full RDP (Remote Desktop Protocol) access is included, and you receive administrator credentials immediately after provisioning. The plans are designed for businesses that need a Windows environment for ASP.NET applications, MS SQL Server databases, Windows-specific software testing, or remote desktop workstations. KVM virtualisation means you have a full hardware virtual machine - not a container - with complete control over the Windows environment.
Performance on Glitch VPS plans is driven by AMD Ryzen 9 7950X processors - single-core clock speeds that handle application workloads, database queries, and concurrent web traffic without the CPU credit limits that cap performance on burstable cloud instances. Storage runs on NVMe Gen4 drives with sequential read speeds of 3,500 MB/s, eliminating the I/O bottleneck that affects VPS plans running on SATA SSD or shared SAN.
Glitch Servers operates AS212868 with direct peering at LINX and LONAP - the London Internet Exchange and London Access Point - providing low-latency paths to BT, Virgin Media, Sky, TalkTalk, and other major UK ISPs without unnecessary Continental European hops. For users connecting across the UK, that translates to consistent single-digit-to-low-double-digit millisecond round-trip times under normal UK network conditions.
Every plan includes Corero Smartwall inline DDoS mitigation operating at the network edge. Traffic scrubbing runs continuously without latency penalty, absorbing volumetric floods before they reach the hypervisor layer. Full plan specifications and pricing are on the UK VPS hosting page.
Key Benefits
Every plan includes these capabilities as standard - no tier-gating, no hidden extras.
Both editions available - Standard and Datacenter. Licence included in plan pricing, no separate Microsoft agreement needed.
Remote Desktop Protocol enabled by default. Connect from Windows, macOS, or Linux (via FreeRDP or Remmina).
Unlike OpenVZ containers, our KVM platform gives Windows full hardware access - proper driver support and real ACPI power management.
NVMe Gen4 SSDs ensure Windows boot times, application launches, and MS SQL queries run at modern hardware speeds.
