I manage the server. You run the business.
100% Managed VPS
You do not need to become a server administrator. I handle your VPS setup, server administration, operating-system maintenance, monitoring and troubleshooting.
For Dean service clients
Your service and server work together.
This cloud server service requires an active Dean Schlenker marketing or custom service at $48 per month or more. Choose a qualifying service, or talk with me about a custom service for the work you need.

The managed hosting foundation I already use.
These are the verified resources of my current physical hosting server. They set the reference point for new server-build requests.
| Resource | Verified current hosting server | New managed VPS build request |
|---|---|---|
| RAM | 32 GB installed | 32 GB or more |
| CPU | Two Xeon E5620 processors at 2.40 GHz 8 physical cores / 16 threads | 16 vCPUs or more requested; processor generation and workload performance reviewed |
| Storage | Two 1 TB Samsung 870 EVO SSDs, mirrored (RAID 1) Roughly 1 TB usable before system overhead | 1 TB or more SSD-backed storage; redundancy confirmed in the quote |
| Connection | 1Gbps negotiated network link | 1Gbps connection or higher, confirmed with the provider |
| Bandwidth | Transfer allowance comes from the hosting agreement | Allowance, including unmetered service where supplied, stated in the quote |
| Operating system | AlmaLinux 9.8 with Plesk | Managed Linux or Windows, with licensing confirmed |
| Management | Dean's managed hosting environment | 100% managed VPS administration by Dean |
These are whole-host totals. Included website hosting uses shared server resources. It does not allocate this entire machine to every website. A separate VPS receives the CPU, RAM and storage specifically written into its quote. Physical threads and virtual CPUs are different resource types; the workload must be checked as well.
The SSD mirroring. Mirroring provides drive redundancy; backups are a separate part of the plan. Link speed does not establish an account's transfer allowance.
Fully managed / custom configuration
Your VPS. Managed from the start.
Baseline or more power
Request a VPS sized at this resource baseline or higher. Smaller stock VPS packages are not offered here.
- RAM requested
- 32 GB or more
- CPU allocation requested
- 16 vCPUs or more
- Storage requested
- 1 TB+ SSD-backed
- Connection requested
- 1Gbps or higher
A custom quote must confirm availability, actual resource allocation, processor performance, storage redundancy and transfer allowance. This is a build request, not an instantly provisioned stock plan.

100% managed by Dean
- VPS setup and server administration
- Operating-system maintenance and security updates
- Server monitoring and troubleshooting
- Access, application requirements and backup planning
You run the business. I handle the server administration covered by your managed plan.
Software and control-panel licenses, Windows remote-access licenses, external A.I. or messaging usage, custom application development and backup storage are separately scoped. Sectorlink provides 24/7 infrastructure support; your Dean service scope and response arrangements are agreed in the proposal.
When the workload needs more
Options for more power.
More memory
Request more than the 32 GB baseline for larger databases, more users or memory-heavy applications.
Quote more RAMMore CPU capacity
Request additional CPU allocation or a newer processor, then check the real workload before choosing it.
Quote more CPUMore SSD storage
Request greater SSD capacity, NVMe where appropriate, and the redundancy and backup plan the business needs.
Quote more storageA $45/month website hosting value
Free website hosting with your qualifying service.
I include website hosting at no extra hosting charge when you have an active marketing or custom service with me at $48 per month or more. That is a $45/month hosting value included in your plan.
Keep the website, its content, and the hosting setup working together. I check the setup and load times so you have a clear person to call when something needs attention.
Included hosting covers the agreed business website on Dean's hosting while the qualifying service stays active. A separate VPS, dedicated machine, colocation, special software, domain fees, and custom application work have their own costs.
Start with what you need to run
A useful home for everyday business tools.
Websites and business apps
Run a lightweight site, customer tool, or workflow without choosing an entire physical server first. We check usage as the business grows.
Remote access and development
A consistent environment can make testing and remote work easier. I help choose the operating system and account setup for the software.
Connected A.I. tools
Host the application, document index, or task queue behind an A.I. helper. Outside model API fees and any local GPU build are separate.
Straight answers
Before you choose a server
What does 100% managed mean?
Dean handles VPS setup, server administration, operating-system maintenance, monitoring and troubleshooting under the agreed managed plan. You are not buying a do-it-yourself server. Custom software development and third-party charges remain separate.
Why are the smaller VPS plans gone?
They had less RAM and storage than Dean's verified hosting server. New requests start at the resource baseline shown here, and the actual configuration and workload performance must be confirmed before ordering.
Do I get a complete VPS free with a $48 service?
No. The included benefit is shared website hosting on Dean's hosting. A separate fully managed VPS has its own quoted rental and management cost.
Can I use this service without a qualifying service?
Dean's VPS service requires an active marketing or custom service of at least $48 per month. Talk to Dean about a qualifying custom arrangement.
Can I choose Linux or Windows?
Yes. The quote confirms the operating system and licenses. Windows, remote desktop, control panels and business applications can change the complete price.
Will changing hosting automatically make my site fast?
The server is one part of the job. I also check the page code, images, caching, database and outside scripts against the actual site.
