    Server features

    Server provides the following features:

    • Convenient server creation: you can easily create servers quickly using the web-based console. The server is provided according to the selected server image, even if without installation of a separate operating system. You can adjust the CPU or memory of the server being used through the specifications change feature.
    • Provision of monitoring feature: basic monitoring features are available for the CPU, network, memory, and disk. With the monitoring service, you can receive event notifications according to server status changes.

If you need to receive consultations or send inquiries regarding the application of strict security settings in addition to the basic security settings, then you can get help from security professionals.
