Kamatera Germany Frankfurt Type A Intel Xeon Platinum 8358P Cloud Server Test and Review
We recently reviewed the Kamatera Frankfurt Type A High-Performance Cloud Server. This server uses a powerful Intel Xeon Platinum 8358P processor at 2.60GHz. Here are its specs: 2 CPU cores, 4 GB RAM, 50 GB SSD storage, a 1 Gbps internet connection, and one IPv4 address.
Our evaluation covered a range of tests. We conducted performance tests using Basic Benchmark, Yabs, and Unix Benchmark. We ran the Global Node Test for network speed across different locations and measured latency with the Global Ping Test.
Additionally, we checked media accessibility through The Media Unlock Test and connection quality via the CloudFlare Internet Test. We also assessed web performance using tools like PageSpeed Insights and GTmetrix.

Admin Control Panel
First, the Admin Control Panel is accessible through a simple login process. You must navigate to the login page, enter your email and password, and voila, you’re in.
Once you’re inside, you’ll find many options at your disposal. The administrative panel on the left allows you to navigate to various sections such as “My Cloud” and “Servers.” This intuitive interface makes it easy to manage your cloud services.
One of the key features of the Kamatera Cloud Admin Control Panel is its compatibility with cPanel. cPanel is a Linux-based web hosting control panel with a graphical interface and automation tools designed to simplify website hosting. It utilizes a three-tier structure that allows administrators, resellers, and end-user website owners to control various aspects of website and server administration.
In addition to cPanel, Kamatera supports other web hosting control panels like Vesta. Vesta is an open-source web hosting control panel software that allows users to manage and control web hosting services on Linux servers. It provides a user-friendly web-based interface for managing various aspects of web hosting, including website and domain management, email hosting, DNS configuration, and server settings.
