2025: Sales Launch
Selectel on August 1, 2025 announced the launch of sales of its own server platform. Entering the server equipment market will expand the company's ability to attract new customers and allow diversifying sources of income.
The solution is relevant for companies that build IT infrastructure on-premium and prefer to own equipment rather than rent it. Such a scenario may be due to the requirements information security for or accumulated expertise in supporting its own fleet of equipment. The product is also of interest to customers with hybrid infrastructure: the use of Selectel server hardware ensures full compatibility with the ecosystem of solutions. provider The product can be complemented by a operating system SelectOS server-optimized solution that simplifies OS support and updates, improves operational efficiency, and simplifies resource management.
The server is assembled on its own Selectel assembly lines in Moscow and St. Petersburg using the supplier's warehouse of components. This greatly accelerates delivery times, which is relevant for companies if they need to replace equipment or need to scale.
 | The Russian server market is estimated at $1.78 billion. As an IT infrastructure provider with many years of expertise and special competencies in hardware, we see the potential for creating and implementing our own technological solutions. This will allow us to gain new opportunities to collaborate with organizations that build hybrid infrastructure or create a closed loop for especially secure data. Selectel's own server is an infrastructure standard for companies that are critical for stability and independence from external services, "said Sergey Pimkov, Deputy General Director for Product Development and Operation at Selectel. - In addition, with the launch of our own server and operating system, we form the technological base for future hardware and software systems. Already in August 2025, we are testing industry software together with partners: in one of these projects, the costs of the streaming company were reduced by 35% of the good. |  |
Selectel server configurations are optimized for tasks that require predictable performance, scalability, and resilience. The server uses Intel Xeon processors 6 with an emphasis on energy-efficient E-cores (Sierra Forest) or on high-performance P-cores (Granite Rapids) - for virtualization and database tasks or for tasks focused on resource-intensive computing, respectively. Maximum performance is achieved in dual-socket configurations with dual Granite Rapids processors.
The Selectel server can be used for a large range of scenarios:
- development and internal infrastructure
The server is suitable for hosting many virtual environments, containers and CI/CD chains. The solution also works efficiently with databases and high-load services thanks to the generation of Intel Xeon processors, DDR5 support, PCIe 5.0, which provide high throughput and speed up mathematical operations and data processing. - backup and data protection
The server quickly stores and processes data thanks to NVMe disks. Through PCIe, you can connect a RAID controller and configure fault tolerance. Resources allow you to quickly compress, encrypt and transfer archives without loading on the main system.
- processing of digital products and API loads
The product is suitable for hosting public B2B and B2C services, providing high throughput and stability at peak calls.
- 1C-Clusters and Accelerate Business Operations
The server architecture allows you to distribute the computing load in 1C clusters: simultaneously process requests from a large number of users, perform parallel calculations and work with large databases without slowdown due to RAM up to 8 TB and quick access to data via NVMe.
The immediate plans for product development include support for CXL parallel computing technology, which allows you to combine servers into a single system with shared memory and flexibly increase resources for specific tasks.
2024: Commissioning of Infrastructure Solution
The company Selectel on October 10, 2024 announced the commissioning of an infrastructure solution based on its own server platform. It is planned that the product will be used data centers provider in for leasing to customers. In addition, customers will be able to use the on-premium solution (on their own site) according to the rental model, which may be relevant for Enterprise segment companies with special requirements for the layout. IT infrastructures
The server platform from Selectel consists of motherboard its own design and a chassis with two power supplies. The platform is responsible for the compatibility and communication of other components servers -, processor RAM,,. hard drives video cards The company also plans to present to the market its own development of a complex low-level one software , BIOS which allows you to manage the settings of all server components during boot, as well as expand the functionality of the platform during operation.
The server platform will be produced at contract production facilities, which will reduce the volume of capital investments. The rest of the components will, as before, be installed in the server on the Selectel side on their own build lines. Selectel will continue to use motherboard-based servers from other manufacturers along with its own solution.
| | We always assembled servers from individual components, which helped reduce costs and reduce dependence on individual suppliers. We are exploring another area of vertical integration and will offer our customers a new solution based on our own server platform. Our customers will receive a new product that meets all business needs, which will ensure the highest compatibility with other Selectel products, on the basis of which companies build their IT infrastructure, - commented Sergey Pimkov, Deputy General Director for Product Development and Operation Selectel. - The solution we launched takes into account the many years of experience and expertise of Selectel in the data center and cloud infrastructure markets. We know what tasks the business faces, what it focuses on, what problems it faces - and we put it in our solutions. At the same time, the server platform can be organically supplemented by its own operating system Selectel, which we plan to put into commercial operation by the end of the year. | |
In 2024, the company announced the development of its own server software, which will strengthen vertical integration, improve business efficiency and offer more services to customers. The operating system can be deployed on both new servers and those already in use by the client. The OS from Selectel is being developed taking into account the features of the new server platform, together they will be a single, deeply integrated and tested hardware and software complex.
In addition, the OS can be installed on user servers located outside the Selectel loop. This will become an important product solution for customers who, for a number of reasons, do not consider the IT infrastructure outsourcing model for themselves. Selectel will provide such companies with uninterrupted technical support, which is critical for customers who do not have a large IT staff. The operating system is undergoing beta testing for October 2024, Selectel plans to launch it commercially by the end of 2024.
