Basic VPS in South Portland — FAQs

Do you have a data centre in South Portland?
No. The nearest is New York, 450 km away, which is the location we default to for South Portland customers. Nothing about the server changes with location except the round trip.
How fast will it feel from South Portland?
Around 7–13 ms to New York, 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.
