VPS Resources & Sizing
Understand VPS RAM, CPU, storage, bandwidth, virtualization, and sizing trade-offs before choosing a plan.
VPS plans are bundles of memory, CPU, storage, bandwidth, and virtualization choices. Buying the largest number in one column rarely produces the best server.
Use these guides to size RAM, compare shared and dedicated CPU, understand NVMe and bandwidth, and match the resource profile to the workload.
RAM guides
A practical guide to 16 GB VPS use cases including databases, Elasticsearch, Magento, game servers, Docker, CI, and multi-service production stacks.
What you can realistically run on a 2 GB VPS, including WordPress, Docker, APIs, VPNs, databases, and self-hosted applications.
A practical guide to what fits on a 4 GB VPS and why this memory tier is a useful sweet spot for small production servers.
What you can realistically run on an 8 GB VPS, when 8 GB is a useful sweet spot, and when CPU, storage, or architecture becomes the real bottleneck.
Storage guides
How to evaluate a 4 GB NVMe VPS for WordPress, Docker, databases, self-hosting, development, storage, and backup requirements.
A buying guide to 8 GB NVMe VPS hosting for databases, Docker, ecommerce, CI, self-hosting, and multi-service production workloads.
How to choose a VPS for remote backups based on storage capacity, transfer, network speed, encryption, snapshots, retention, and provider independence.
Understand when NVMe storage improves a VPS, which workloads benefit most, and why CPU, caching, database design, and backup strategy still matter.
Network guides
How to compare high-bandwidth VPS plans for media, backups, VPNs, proxies, downloads, and data-heavy applications without confusing port speed with monthly transfer.
A guide to VPS plans with 10 TB transfer, including what 10 TB means, port speed, VPN and media workloads, overages, and how to estimate real monthly usage.
What a dedicated VPS IP actually means, when you need public IPv4, how IPv6 fits, and what to consider for websites, VPNs, remote access, and email.
CPU guides
A commercial guide to dedicated CPU VPS plans, including performance consistency, databases, game servers, CI, encoding, and when shared CPU remains the better value.
Compare shared and dedicated CPU VPS plans by workload, performance consistency, price, WordPress, Docker, databases, game servers, and development use.
