Hi Nami,
Generally, we would probably advise you not to buy hardware, unless you
have very specific reasons to do so. There are many providers who can
provide such services  such as Linode, DigitalOcean, Amazon Web Services
among many others. To my knowledge. the vast majority of production DHIS2
instances are using some type of virtual hosting arrangement, but there are
others who insist on purchasing hardware. However. it is not only the
hardware which is the problem. You must have backup devices, UPS, air
conditioning and of course, sufficient bandwidth to support an Internet
facing server.  Basically, everything you would already expect to find in a
data center. So, it is not only the server, and in the end, the total cost
of ownership will be likely orders of magnitudes higher, than putting your
DHIS2 instance with a cloud provider.

Best regards,
Jason
