Operating a dedicated server or virtual private server can come with some challenges. One of those challenges is migrating IP addresses from server to server. So, let's talk about some of the benefits of FlexIP (flexible IP) for bare metal servers.
First let’s address the question, what is FlexIP?
Flexible IP allows you to seamlessly migrate IP addresses over multiple servers without the need to commit to large IP blocks in advance each time. Similar to public clouds running virtual machines.
Now that we have an understanding of what FlexIP does, let’s get into the benefits.
Performance and Security
Many hosting providers offer simple VPC models such as VLAN. VLAN does not provide the advanced level of enterprise security, performance, and cost savings that our FlexIP VPC model provides.
Simple Virtual Machine creation
Flexible IPs can also be used as additional IP addresses to create virtual machines on your Bare Metal Cloud Server. Spin Servers sells additional IP addresses for only $1 per IP.
Great fit for hosting providers
You will no longer have to deal with wasting IP addresses each time you announce a new IP range, and no longer do you have to manually set up IP/MAC bindings for virtual machines. SpinServers’ FlexIP completely automates all of this
A step above the rest
Spin Servers is the only IaaS (infrastructure as a service) company in the world offering this feature on bare metal servers.
