VPS for Streaming: High-Bandwidth Offshore Media Server Hosting

Shared hosting caps your CPU and bandwidth the moment you start transcoding or serving concurrent streams. A VPS gives you dedicated resources — guaranteed CPU cores, RAM, and disk I/O — so your media server performs predictably under load.

With root access you can tune kernel buffers, install hardware-accelerated transcoding libraries, and mount large storage volumes without waiting for a support ticket. AnubizHost VPS plans include SSD-backed storage and optional NVMe upgrades for libraries that exceed 10 TB.

Our offshore locations also mean your streaming infrastructure is not subject to aggressive DMCA-style takedown regimes, giving you operational continuity that onshore providers cannot guarantee.

Streaming is a sustained-bandwidth workload, not a bursty one. Many providers advertise "1 Gbps" but throttle you after a few terabytes. AnubizHost offers truly unmetered traffic on select plans, with premium transit through Tier 1 carriers and direct peering at major IXPs in Europe.

We provision each VPS with a dedicated IPv4 address and a /64 IPv6 block. For multi-region streaming setups, you can deploy nodes across our offshore locations and use GeoDNS to route viewers to the nearest edge. Our internal network backplane runs at 10 Gbps, ensuring VM-to-VM traffic never bottlenecks.

Real-time monitoring dashboards let you track bandwidth usage, packet loss, and latency per destination — so you can prove to your viewers that the problem is their last mile, not your server.

AnubizHost VPS nodes run any Linux distribution you prefer — Ubuntu, Debian, AlmaLinux, or Arch. Install Plex Media Server, Jellyfin, Emby, or Icecast with a single command. We provide one-click OS templates with Docker pre-installed so you can spin up containerized media stacks in minutes.

For live streaming, our VPS handles Nginx-RTMP, OBS relay, SRT ingest, and HLS/DASH packaging without breaking a sweat. Pair it with a CDN origin-pull for large audiences or serve directly from the VPS for private streams.

Need hardware transcoding? Select a plan with GPU passthrough (where available) or rely on CPU-based transcoding on our high-clock Xeon and EPYC processors. Either way, you get smooth 1080p and 4K playback.

Choose a plan with enough RAM for your library size — 4 GB handles a personal Plex server, while 16 GB+ suits multi-user setups with live transcoding. Add storage as needed; our block storage volumes attach instantly and scale up to 10 TB per node.

After deployment, SSH in, install your media server, and open the necessary ports in our built-in firewall manager. We recommend enabling HTTPS with Let's Encrypt and restricting access with token-based authentication for private libraries.

Our support team is available 24/7 via ticket and Telegram. Whether you need help tuning FFmpeg flags, setting up reverse proxies, or configuring automated library scanning, we have you covered. Deploy your streaming VPS today and start serving content within the hour.
