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
Workable for a small team. Shared processor time shows up as lag once concurrent conversations climb.
$136.35USD
per month
ConfigureGeneral purpose
The usual choice
Long-lived connections need steady processor time more than they need peak speed.
$147.35USD
per month
ConfigureDedicated
High performance
Dedicated cores for large concurrent loads, where a neighbour’s spike would otherwise be felt as delay.
$158.35USD
per month
ConfigureBurstable
Not for messaging
Throttles under sustained load, and a messaging server is sustained load by definition.
$0.3037USD
per hour — booked for a window, not subscribed
Book by the hourMemory and cores can be raised on the same server without a rebuild — usually within the hour.
A socket is not a page view
Most hosting is sized for requests that arrive, get answered and end. Messaging is the opposite: every participant holds a connection open for as long as they are present, and the server pays for it the entire time. That changes what to buy.
Memory is the ceiling, not cores
Each open connection costs memory whether or not anyone is typing. Concurrency is usually a memory question first and a processor question second.
Steady beats fast
A burst of speed does not help a connection that has to stay responsive for hours. Consistent processor time does, which is why the shared-burst class is the wrong one here.
Latency is felt per keystroke
A page load absorbs a slow round trip once. A live conversation exposes it continuously, which is why the region you pick matters more here than almost anywhere else.
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 the people holding the conversations. Messaging keeps a connection open, so latency is felt on every keystroke rather than once per page.
Wimbledon has a data centre of its own. Every marker costs the same per month.
