Region-specific constraints

Region-specific constraints

Each datacenter region can have different technical or operational constraints. These constraints can affect ordering, deployment, network behavior, or what is allowed/available for a specific product.

Examples of constraints that may vary by region

Depending on location and product type, you may see differences in:

  • Available products or configurations (certain plans/hardware not offered everywhere)
  • Network characteristics (upstream providers, routing, latency patterns)
  • Capacity limits (temporary restrictions on new deployments)
  • IP availability (limited IPv4 stock in some regions)
  • Maintenance windows (timing may depend on the facility)
  • Local legal/jurisdiction considerations (data residency and regional regulations)

Note

Region constraints are not the same for OneCloud and Bare Metal.
OneCloud constraints are usually capacity/platform related.
Bare Metal constraints are commonly inventory/lead-time related.

OneCloud (Cloud Instances): common region constraints

  • A region may be temporarily unavailable for new VM creation due to capacity
  • Certain images/features may be limited to specific regions (depending on platform support)
  • Scaling or creating additional instances may depend on current regional capacity

Bare Metal (Dedicated Servers): common region constraints

  • Availability depends on hardware stock in that datacenter
  • Certain upgrades/options may not be possible in all locations
  • “On-demand” deployments may have lead times and are still subject to availability

How to confirm region constraints before ordering

  • Check the available options in the order form for the product you want
  • If you need a guaranteed region, specific hardware, or special requirements, contact Sales with:
    • Desired location(s)
    • Required specs (CPU/RAM/storage/bandwidth)
    • Any special network/IP needs
    • Expected deployment timeline
