Choose how the processor is shared

Every class ships the same hardware menu and the same Ubuntu Server 24.04 (LTS) 64-bit image. What changes is how the processor is shared — and the price moves with it.

Availability

Budget friendly

Shared processor time is plenty for a site, a bot or a side project that is idle most of the day.

General purpose

The usual choice

Worth the difference if the box runs something people wait on — a small API, a dashboard used during working hours.

Dedicated

High performance

More machine than a small project needs. Sensible only if something on it must never share a core.

Hourly only

Burstable

Burst capable

For work with a definite end: a migration, a scrape, a batch job. Booked by the hour and taken down afterwards.

$0.1380USD

per hour — booked for a window, not subscribed

Book by the hour

Outgrowing it is normal and easy to fix — memory, cores and disk all go up on the same server, by hand, usually within the hour.

Where your server runs

All 24 locations cost the same, so pick whichever sits closest to the people who will actually use the server. Choose the region closest to whoever visits the site or uses the bot. For a small server that is usually one country, and picking the right one is the cheapest speed improvement available to you.

Basic VPS in Halifax — FAQs

Do you have a data centre in Halifax?

No. The nearest is London, 272 km away, which is the location we default to for Halifax customers. Nothing about the server changes with location except the round trip.

How fast will it feel from Halifax?

Around 4–8 ms to London, estimated from fibre distance rather than measured. Your own connection and route decide where in that range you land.

Which hardware class should I choose?

General purpose for anything people wait on. Availability if the server is idle most of the day. Dedicated only when something must never share a core.

Can I change the class or the location later?

Memory, cores and disk go up on the same server by hand, usually within the hour. Changing location means a rebuild, so it is worth picking well now.

How much does a basic VPS cost in Halifax?

From $49.95 USD per month on the Availability class, $60.95 USD on General purpose. The same prices apply in all 24 locations.
