About our Windows servers

Fully managed Windows dedicated servers, hosted in India

A Windows dedicated server is a physical bare-metal machine running Microsoft Windows Server, allocated to a single customer with full Administrator access over RDP. Unlike a virtual server, no other tenant shares the CPU, RAM or storage. eWebGuru deploys Windows Server 2019, 2022 and 2025 on enterprise hardware in Indian Tier-IV data centres, from ₹10,500 per month with licensing included.

Every plan is fully managed: the build, RAID configuration, Windows activation and patch cycles, IIS and MSSQL setup, security hardening, hardware monitoring and physical work at the rack.

Running PHP, Python, Node.js or MySQL instead? Our Linux dedicated servers use the same hardware without the OS licence.

Bare metal

Why run Windows on bare metal

When your stack is IIS, ASP.NET, .NET or SQL Server, dedicated hardware gives you:

Native IIS performance

ASP.NET, ASP.NET Core and classic ASP run directly on the platform they were built for — no compatibility layers.

Microsoft SQL Server

Express, Standard or Enterprise on direct-attached NVMe with guaranteed RAM — no contention for the buffer pool.

Full Administrator over RDP

Graphical administration for teams who manage servers from a desktop, plus PowerShell when you want it.

Active Directory

Run your own domain controller, Group Policy and DNS without a third-party identity provider.

Hyper-V

Run isolated Windows or Linux VMs on your own node for dev/test or internal environments.

Predictable licensing

Per-CPU licence costs you can forecast, instead of per-vCPU billing that grows with load.

Managed scope

What "fully managed" means on Windows Server

Windows administration differs from Linux, so our managed scope does too. You keep full Administrator access — managed means we watch the server when you're not logged in, not that we restrict what you install.

OS installation and initial configuration from a console cart at the rack. After that, everything is handled over IPMI and RDP.
  • OS installation and activation — genuine Microsoft licensing, activation and WSUS patch management.
  • IIS hardening — application pool isolation, request filtering, URL Rewrite and TLS 1.2/1.3.
  • RDP security — Network Level Authentication, brute-force lockout, non-default ports and certificate-based access where needed.
  • SQL Server tuning — TempDB placement, memory caps, backup maintenance plans and Always On on Enterprise edition.
  • Windows Update management — tested patch cycles in an agreed window. Patch Tuesday never goes straight to production.
  • Active Directory — forest and domain setup, DNS, DHCP, Group Policy and replication, on request.
  • Hardware monitoring and replacement — failed parts replaced within 6 hours at most, usually about 2.
  • 24x7 support in IST — by ticket, live chat and phone, from engineers who work on Windows servers daily.
The stack

IIS, .NET and SQL Server, set up for you

Internet Information Services (IIS)

IIS 10 is pre-installed and tuned on every managed server. It has stayed at version 10.0 from Windows Server 2016 to 2025, so configuration and modules carry across releases. We set up application pools for isolation, dynamic compression and URL Rewrite, and harden against common Windows attack paths.

.NET Framework and .NET 8 / 9

From .NET Framework 4.8 for legacy ASP.NET Web Forms to .NET 8 and 9 for modern APIs. For high-throughput .NET workloads we recommend Kestrel behind IIS as a reverse proxy.

Where your Windows server is built and kept running

Our own photographs, taken by our team inside the Tier-IV CtrlS facility where our dedicated servers are racked. For Indian buyers, local infrastructure keeps data inside Indian jurisdiction — increasingly relevant under the Digital Personal Data Protection framework.

Control panels

Control panels for Windows Server

cPanel does not run on Windows. These are the panels that do, with their real monthly cost.

Which one we usually install

Hosting several websites? Plesk Obsidian integrates with IIS, MSSQL, MailEnable and ASP.NET. SolidCP and WebsitePanel are the open-source route if you're happy maintaining the panel. Running a single application — one ASP.NET Core API, one ERP install, one RDS host? Skip the panel: RDP with IIS Manager leaves more RAM for the app and one less thing to patch.

Use cases

Who needs a Windows dedicated server?

ASP.NET and .NET Core apps

MVC, Web API, Blazor and SignalR run directly on IIS with the .NET stack they were built against.

SQL Server workloads

If your schema depends on T-SQL, SSIS, SSRS or CLR integration, Windows keeps compatibility and administration simple.

ERP and CRM

Dynamics 365, SAP Business One, TallyPrime Server and other Windows-native business apps with guaranteed resources.

Active Directory and internal IT

Domain controller, file server and Group Policy on dedicated hardware in India, for data residency and low latency.

Remote Desktop Services

Publish Windows apps or desktops to remote teams without session hosts slowing when another tenant spikes.

Hyper-V and legacy apps

Run isolated VMs on your own node, or keep classic ASP and older .NET Framework apps on Windows Server 2019.

Sizing

Windows dedicated server or Windows VPS?

Most buyers land here when a virtual server stops keeping up. The question is how much hardware and control your application needs.

Migration

Migrating an existing Windows server, free

Active Directory metadata, IIS application pools, MSSQL logins and registry settings don't copy across cleanly — so we follow a process.

  1. Stack audit

    Windows version, IIS sites and bindings, MSSQL instances, .NET versions and installed roles.

  2. Provisioning

    Your new server is built to a matching or newer Windows edition.

  3. Data sync

    Files, databases and accounts transfer while your old server stays live.

  4. DNS cutover

    After a final sync and testing, DNS is repointed.

  5. Verification

    IIS bindings, SSL, MSSQL and RDP are confirmed before you switch off the old box.

We regularly migrate Windows servers from other providers, including cross-grades from older Windows Server versions during the move.

Security

Security and network features

Every Windows server is hardened before handover and stays that way through managed patch cycles.

Windows Firewall, pre-configured

Inbound rules set up for you, with RDP restricted to your source IP ranges by default.

Network Level Authentication

RDP requires authentication before a session starts, sharply cutting brute-force exposure.

TLS 1.2 / 1.3 only

IIS rejects legacy SSL and TLS versions.

DDoS mitigation

Volumetric attack filtering on dedicated server uplinks, applied upstream of your machine.

IPMI / KVM over IP

Out-of-band access that works even when Windows or RDP doesn't.

Private VLANs

Isolate your Windows server from public-facing nodes in hybrid deployments.

What is a Windows dedicated server?

A physical bare-metal machine running Microsoft Windows Server (2019, 2022 or 2025), used by one customer only. You get the full CPU, RAM and storage of the machine with full Administrator access over RDP.

How much does a Windows dedicated server cost in India?

From ₹10,500 per month, including the Windows Server Standard licence. Each plan costs the same as its Linux equivalent plus ₹2,000 per CPU for the licence.

Is the Windows Server licence included in the price?

Yes. Every price in the plans table includes Windows Server Standard licensing for that server's CPU count — ₹2,000 per CPU per month. Datacenter edition and SQL Server licences are quoted separately.

Do I get full Administrator and RDP access?

Yes. You can install any software, configure IIS, create MSSQL databases and manage the server graphically or through PowerShell.

Which Windows Server versions do you offer?

Windows Server 2025, 2022 and 2019 Standard by default, with Datacenter for high-density virtualisation. Windows Server 2016 is available on request for legacy compatibility. We do not deploy 2012 R2 or earlier on new builds.

Can I install SQL Server?

Yes — Express, Standard or Enterprise. Our engineers install, configure and tune MSSQL during onboarding. SQL Server Express is free; Standard and Enterprise are available under SPLA rental with no upfront Microsoft cost.

What control panels work on Windows?

cPanel does not run on Windows. We recommend Plesk Obsidian, which integrates with IIS, ASP.NET and MSSQL. SolidCP and WebsitePanel are free alternatives, or you can run with no panel at all.

Can I run Hyper-V and virtual machines?

Yes. Windows Server Standard allows two virtualised instances on a licensed host; Datacenter includes unlimited Windows Server VM rights for dense Hyper-V environments.

How long does provisioning take?

Standard configurations are usually ready within 6 hours of payment verification, including installation, activation, initial patching and RDP setup — 24 hours at most. Custom builds or specific Active Directory topologies may take up to 48 hours.

Should I choose a dedicated server or a Windows VPS?

Choose dedicated for SQL Server Standard or Enterprise on large datasets, RDS for many concurrent users, Hyper-V, or single-tenant compliance needs. A Windows VPS is the better start for one or two applications with a modest database.

Can you migrate my current Windows server?

Yes, free of charge. We migrate IIS sites, MSSQL databases, user accounts, DNS records and SSL certificates, and handle version cross-grades during the move.

What is the difference between Standard and Datacenter edition?

Standard covers physical or lightly virtualised workloads with rights to two virtual instances. Datacenter includes unlimited Windows Server VM rights and is built for dense Hyper-V, software-defined networking and Storage Spaces Direct.

Do you set up Active Directory and domain controllers?

Yes, on managed plans — forest and domain configuration, DNS, DHCP, Group Policy and replication between multiple Windows servers.

What happens if my hardware fails?

A failed disk, RAM module, motherboard or PSU is replaced within 6 hours at most, typically in about 2. A failed hard disk is reattached to your server as a secondary drive so you can try to recover data. Your Windows licence stays activated on the replacement hardware.

Is there a minimum contract period?

Yes, 30 days.

Ready to move your .NET stack to bare metal?

Genuine Windows Server on enterprise hardware in Indian Tier-IV data centres, managed by engineers who work on IIS, MSSQL and Active Directory every day — from ₹10,500 a month with licensing included and free migration.
