How does Dedicated Hosting function?
Things are pretty straightforward when it comes to dedicated hosting. You have complete control over an entire server for your website. Furthermore, you can configure it to do exactly what you require.
For example, your hosting provider (such as Namecheap) will lease you a blank server. To improve functionality and reliability, you will need to configure it by adding software and hardware components. Similarly, setting up dedicated server hosting is similar to customising a website.
During the setup process, you will customise the server’s hardware such as RAM, storage, CPU power, and so on. Because of their flexibility, dedicated servers are an excellent choice for most power-hungry tasks, including gaming.
DO NOT GO THERE

Same as James said, 2-3 comments below. Literally false advertisement. They are luring you that you can run nodejs apps and so on, until you actually run it (I am using Turbo Boost Plan) so you can see your that your resources maxed out. The cPanel locks you pretty much and tells you, you don't have the required permission to resolve this, you contact support and they tell you that... "We have killed all user processes on your account to free up the resource usage, however, this isn't a permanent fix as nodeJS can be very resource-intensive. You or your developer would need to take steps to review your application process consumption or consider upgrading to a server with higher process handing capabilities like our managed VPS or Dedicated servers."My application is literally no more than 10 files and all of them are small (its just an index with some js to it). And the plan I am using was being advertised as absolutely fine to use with requirements like mine.
