What's included

A VDS is a virtual server whose CPU cores are reserved for you and never shared. Performance stays steady when your neighbours get busy, which matters for databases, build servers, game servers and anything with real traffic.

You get most of the benefit of a dedicated server, with snapshots, fast upgrades and no hardware to wait for.

Dedicated cores

Reserved for you and never shared with other servers.

NVMe storage

Large NVMe volumes on every plan.

Daily backups

Included on every VDS plan.

Snapshots

Roll back risky changes in minutes.

Full root

KVM with your own kernel.

Upgrade in place

Move up a plan from the client area.

Questions

VPS or VDS?

If your workload is bursty and small, a VPS is fine. If it needs steady CPU all day, choose a VDS.

Can I try one for free?

Student projects can apply for Launchpad, which is up to 30 days on a VDS.

When should I choose a dedicated server instead?

When you need a whole machine's hardware, special disks or more than 16 cores.

Are backups included?

Yes, daily backups on every VDS plan.
