Why choose Brightbox?

Here’s just a few reasons why Brightbox makes good sense…

Ruby on Rails ready to go - out of the box!

Your Brightbox comes preinstalled with our proven Ruby on Rails stack. Spend less time configuring your server, and more time perfecting your app.

Scalable

Scale upwards (e.g a bigger box with more RAM) or outwards (e.g. add more servers) quickly and easily without breaking the bank. Start off small and grow big!

Quick & simple deployment

Use the Brightbox gem and you’ll have your Rails app up and running in just a few minutes!

Better than traditional dedicated servers

Brightbox offers better redundancy, better scalability and better value for money over traditional dedicated servers.

Full control of your server environment

Unlike some other services, you get full root access to your Brightbox server so you can install and tweak what you like.

High performance hardware and infrastructure

We’ve invested a lot of time and money into building our infrastructure so you don’t need to. Each of our host servers have 8 CPU cores with 32GB RAM and redundant fans and power supplies.
