Japan Dedicated Server Plans

Two enterprise bare-metal builds shipped from our seismic-resilient Tier-3 Tokyo facility — a single-socket Xeon E-series box for latency-sensitive front ends, and a 32-core dual Xeon Gold workhorse for heavy compute. Both ride a dedicated 1 Gbps port with 30 TB of monthly traffic, anti-DDoS at the network edge, and a free IPMI-KVM console for life.

Tokyo, Japan · JPNAP / JPIX / BBIX peering · USD pricing (JPY invoicing on request)
Pro-rata billing on both Japan plans. Your first invoice covers the days remaining in the current calendar month plus the next full month paid in advance — so every subsequent invoice lands cleanly on the 1st of the month at the standard monthly rate.

Both Japan plans include: 30 TB / month on a dedicated 1 Gbps port · JPNAP / JPIX / BBIX peering · anti-DDoS at edge · IPMI-KVM out-of-band console · free OS reinstall · IPv6 /64 · self-service rDNS / PTR.

How the pro-rata math works: If you order the entry $290/mo plan on the 20th of a 30-day month, your first invoice covers the 10 days remaining in this month plus the next full month (30 days) — billed as $290 × (10 + 30) / 30 ≈ $386.67. From the 1st of the following month onwards you pay the standard $290 monthly rate. Cancel any time from your client area.

Why anchor your stack in Tokyo

Tokyo is not an interchangeable APAC location — it is the home of the world's third-largest internet economy and the single best Asian launch pad toward North America. Here is the case for placing your workload here rather than Singapore or Hong Kong.

1
The world's third-largest internet economy

Japan has roughly 125 million people, near-universal high-speed broadband, and one of the highest digital-spend-per-capita figures on the planet. If your users are in Japan, hosting in Japan is not optional — domestic users expect sub-5 ms responsiveness and Japanese networks penalise off-shore origins heavily.

2
The lowest-latency bridge to North America

Tokyo is where the dense trans-Pacific cable cluster lands — JUPITER, FASTER, PLCN, the Pacific Crossing systems and more. That makes it the lowest-latency Asian origin for any US-West-Coast audience at roughly 100 ms to Los Angeles, comfortably ahead of Singapore or Hong Kong for trans-Pacific traffic.

3
Engineered for the ground it sits on

Japanese data centres are built to a standard the rest of the world rarely needs — base-isolation structures, seismic-rated racking, and multiply-redundant utility feeds designed to keep running through the earthquakes the region experiences. For workloads where physical uptime is non-negotiable, that engineering is a genuine differentiator.

4
APPI, FSA and JPNAP-grade peering

The Act on the Protection of Personal Information (APPI) and the Personal Information Protection Commission give you a clear data-residency framework, while FSA guidance and the JVCEA crypto regime cover regulated finance. On the network side, JPNAP, JPIX and BBIX between them carry the overwhelming majority of domestic Japanese traffic — so your users reach you in single-digit milliseconds.

What you get on both Japan plans

The defaults built into every Tokyo box, the day-2 operations tooling that comes with the panel, and the optional services you can layer on as the workload demands.

The defaults

Hard guarantees, physical and network resilience, and modern silicon — both Tokyo plans ship with the lot.

Seismic-resilient Tier-3

Concurrently-maintainable Tokyo facility with base-isolation seismic engineering, N+1 power and cooling, biometric multi-zone access, and generator-backed power tested under live load monthly. We disclose the underlying site name under NDA at onboarding.

Always-on anti-DDoS

Edge scrubbing absorbs volumetric and protocol-layer floods, included in the base plan with no add-on fee. A manual escalation path handles sustained or targeted Layer-7 campaigns against your IP space — paired with the facility's physical resilience for end-to-end uptime.

Xeon E-series + Xeon Gold

The single-socket Xeon E-2374G hits 3.7 GHz for latency-sensitive front ends and game ticks; the dual Xeon Gold 5218 brings 32 cores / 64 threads and 128 GB for virtualisation, databases and batch compute. ECC memory and enterprise SSD on both.

Running it day-to-day

The operational primitives — image management, out-of-band access, and deployment speed for Tokyo workloads.

OS library + custom ISOs

One-click installs for Debian, Ubuntu LTS, AlmaLinux, Rocky, CentOS Stream, FreeBSD, and Windows Server 2019 / 2022 with Japanese language packs on request. Upload your own ISO once and it stays in your account for unlimited future reinstalls.

HTML5 IPMI-KVM console

Browser-native KVM-over-IP at the BMC level — no Java applet, no Flash. Mount rescue ISOs, watch BIOS POST, capture serial console output, and remote-power the chassis without raising a ticket.

Same-business-day deploy

In-stock Tokyo SKUs go from "Pay" to "Console" in 4–8 hours during JST business hours. Custom RAID, atypical OS images or non-stock hardware adds 1–3 business days — we confirm a delivery window in writing before charging the card.

What you can layer on top

Optional services priced à la carte. Skip them on day one, add them as the workload demands.

IPv4 blocks & rDNS

Allocate additional IPv4 in /29, /28, /27 or larger blocks subject to brief APNIC justification. Manage your own reverse-DNS records in the client area — no support tickets. Every Tokyo server also ships with a free IPv6 /64.

Managed engineering hours

Need a senior engineer to harden, monitor, migrate or fight a fire with you? Buy time in 30-minute blocks and have someone competent at the console — no retainer, no monthly commit, no upselling.

Hardware RAID at build

Choose RAID 0, 1, 5, 6 or 10 on supported chassis at order time and we wire the controller before the OS goes on. Battery-backed write cache is available for write-heavy database and storage workloads.

Dedicated, VPS or shared RDP — what fits your Japan workload?

A practical side-by-side. The right product depends on whether you need physical isolation, hypervisor-level isolation, or none at all.

Workloads that belong on a Tokyo box

The customer profiles where Tokyo bare metal genuinely beats the alternatives — Singapore, Hong Kong, Seoul, or leaving the workload in the US.

Domestic-Japan SaaS & media

Serving Japanese users means hosting in Japan — domestic networks reward in-country origins with sub-5 ms responsiveness and penalise off-shore hosting. Ideal for Japan-facing SaaS, e-commerce, streaming and media platforms targeting the 125-million-person market.

Trans-Pacific origin to US-West

Tokyo's trans-Pacific cable density makes it the lowest-latency Asian origin for North-American audiences — roughly 100 ms to Los Angeles. Perfect for apps bridging Asia and the US, real-time collaboration, or US-facing services that need an Asian foothold.

Japanese game origins

Japan is one of the world's largest gaming markets, and Tokyo puts Japanese plus Korean players on the same low-ping origin (~35 ms to Seoul). Minecraft, FFXIV-adjacent communities, fighting-game netcode and mobile-game backends all benefit.

FSA fintech & JVCEA crypto

Japan runs one of the most mature regulated-crypto regimes in the world via the FSA and the JVCEA self-regulatory body. Single-tenant bare metal inside Japan gives licensed exchanges, payment operators and fintech builders clean data residency.

Japan–Korea dual-market apps

If your audience spans both Japan and Korea, Tokyo covers both at native-region latency (~35 ms to Seoul) from a single origin — no need to split infrastructure across two countries until traffic genuinely justifies it.

Cost-out from AWS Tokyo

Predictable monthly bare-metal pricing replaces hourly EC2 + EBS + data-egress billing for steady-state ap-northeast-1 workloads. Typical saving on a roughly equivalent footprint is 40–60% once Tokyo egress is factored in.

Frequently Asked Questions

The questions we field most often about our Japan plans — covering the data centre, billing model, latency expectations, compliance and provisioning.

Our Japan servers live in a seismic-resilient Tier-3 carrier-neutral facility in the Greater Tokyo area, multi-homed across Japan's major Tier-1 carriers (NTT, KDDI, SoftBank, IIJ) and cross-connected into JPNAP, JPIX and BBIX — the three internet exchanges that carry the overwhelming majority of domestic Japanese traffic. Japanese facilities are engineered to ride out the seismic events the region is known for, with base-isolation structures and N+1 power.

Every Japan plan uses WHMCS-style pro-rata billing on the first cycle. Your opening invoice covers the days remaining in the current calendar month plus one full month paid in advance, calculated as (monthly rate) × (remaining days + 30) ÷ 30. This aligns every future invoice to the 1st of the month at the standard monthly rate. Worked example: order the $290/mo plan on the 20th of a 30-day month and the first invoice is approximately $290 × (10 + 30) ÷ 30 ≈ $386.67. There is no setup fee, no prepayment penalty, and you can cancel from the client area at any time.

Tokyo is the right call for three things the others cannot match: serving Japan's domestic market — the world's third-largest internet economy — at sub-5 ms; reaching the US West Coast at the lowest latency of any Asian hub (~100 ms to Los Angeles via the dense trans-Pacific cable cluster that lands in Japan); and covering Japan plus Korea together (~35 ms to Seoul) from one origin. Singapore owns Southeast Asia, Hong Kong owns the mainland-China on-ramp, and Seoul is sharper for Korea-only audiences — but for Japan, US-West reach, or a Japan-Korea pairing, Tokyo wins outright.

Yes. Data on our Japan servers is processed and stored inside Japan, falling under the Act on the Protection of Personal Information (APPI). The Personal Information Protection Commission (PPC) is the supervisory authority. Financial-services customers can align with Japan Financial Services Agency (FSA) guidance, and regulated crypto operators with the JVCEA self-regulatory framework. We will sign a Data Processing Addendum on request.

Indicative one-way figures from our Tokyo edge: under 5 ms within Greater Tokyo and Osaka, ~35 ms to Seoul, ~50 ms to Taipei, ~50 ms to Shanghai, ~55 ms to Hong Kong, ~70 ms to Singapore, ~100 ms to Los Angeles, ~105 ms to San Francisco, ~110 ms to Sydney, and ~130 ms to Mumbai. Round-trip times double these numbers. Tokyo's trans-Pacific cable density makes it the lowest-latency Asian origin for any North-American audience.

30 TB of combined inbound and outbound traffic per calendar month, delivered over a dedicated 1 Gbps port. Bandwidth resets on the first of each month. Japanese domestic transit and trans-Pacific capacity are both premium routes, and 30 TB is a comfortable default for the typical domestic-Japan SaaS, gaming, or trans-Pacific origin workload.

Two options, set at order time: (a) the port auto-throttles to 100 Mbps for the rest of the billing month with zero overage charges, or (b) you pre-authorise per-TB overage at a published flat rate. We never silently bill — the policy you pick is visible in your client area and emailed back at provisioning.

Yes. Always-on volumetric and protocol-layer mitigation is included at the network edge of every Japan plan. On top of the network defences, Japanese facilities pair this with the physical resilience the region demands — base-isolation seismic design, redundant utility feeds, and on-site generation — so both digital and physical risk are accounted for.

In-stock Tokyo SKUs are usually racked, imaged and delivered the same Japan business day — most customers see credentials within 4–8 hours of payment confirmation during JST business hours. Custom RAID, atypical OS images, or non-stock hardware adds 1–3 business days. We always confirm a delivery window in writing before charging the card.

Stock images: Debian, Ubuntu LTS, AlmaLinux, Rocky Linux, CentOS Stream, FreeBSD, Windows Server 2019 and 2022 (BYOL or SPLA). Japanese language packs are pre-installed on Windows images on request. Custom ISOs can be mounted to the IPMI-KVM console at no charge — bring your own hardened gold image and we will install it for you.

Japan plans are unmanaged by default — you own the OS, the patching cycle and the application stack. The hardware, the network path and basic OS reinstalls are covered under standard support at no charge. For hands-on management, attach Managed Engineering Hours from the client area in 30-minute blocks.

Visa / Mastercard / American Express, PayPal, Skrill, Perfect Money, Paytm (for India), bank wire, and 50+ cryptocurrencies including Bitcoin, Ethereum, USDT (TRC20 / ERC20), Litecoin, Monero and Solana. Quoted prices are USD; we can issue JPY-denominated invoices on request.
