Sustainable Power Structure
At FourteenRockets, we are committed to reducing our carbon footprint and promoting sustainable practices. The data centre in Naaldwijk, Netherlands where our Palladium server is located, is powered by 100% renewable energy. The data centre’s power is sourced from wind and solar, ensuring that our Palladium Server is not only high-performing but also environmentally friendly.
The data centre employs an innovative cooling system that uses outside air to cool the servers, reducing the need for energy-intensive air conditioning. This system, known as free cooling, allows the data centre to maintain optimal server temperatures while minimising energy consumption.

Our Palladium Server runs on Ubuntu 24.04, a stable and secure operating system that provides a solid foundation for your web applications. With regular security updates, Ubuntu 24.04 is the ideal choice for our dedicated hosting server.
To further enhance the performance and security of our Palladium Server, we make use of LiteSpeed Web Server on top of Ubuntu.
LiteSpeed is up to 9x faster than Apache and can handle high traffic efficiently. It also offers built-in DDoS protection, SSL/TLS support, and mod_security compatibility to secure your website. With full HTTP/3 support, your website benefits from the latest internet protocol, delivering faster page loads, improved connection reliability, and better performance on mobile networks – ensuring your website is truly future-proof.
What’s in a name?
We thought it would be fun to come up with some interesting and appropriate names for our services. For our own web server, we decided on the name Palladium.
Palladium, a scarce and radiant silvery-white metal, is valued for its distinctive attributes such as remarkable corrosion resistance, superior electrical conductivity, and the ability to endure extreme temperatures.
It goes without saying that our web server is not made of palladium, but is named after the metal. Much like how the Palladium server is designed to deliver robust, reliable, and high-performance hosting solutions, the metal itself is a testament to resilience and performance under the most demanding conditions.
