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

Reasonable for internal tools and staging where a slow minute costs nothing.

Burstable

Development only

Only for development boxes. Throttles under sustained load, so it is a poor fit for anything customer-facing.

per hour — booked for a window, not subscribed

Book by the hour

Raise memory, cores or disk on the same server as you grow — by hand, usually within the hour, without a migration.

What the number means

We publish 99.98% across a trailing 90 days. That is a measurement of what happened, not a contractual guarantee — and it is the same figure on our homepage, from one place, so it cannot say something different depending on which page you land on.

A window, not a promise

An uptime figure without a window is meaningless. Ours is stated over a trailing 90 days and moves as the window does.

Backed up regardless

Availability and durability are different problems. Daily off-server backups mean a bad day is a restore rather than a loss.

Built by a person

Every server is assembled and checked by hand before handover, which is slower than a provisioning script and catches things a script does not.

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 customers using the product day to day, or to the database it talks to if that lives elsewhere.

High-Uptime VPS in Columbus — FAQs

What uptime do you actually achieve?
99.98% over a trailing 90 days. We publish the window alongside the figure because a percentage without one tells you nothing, and it is the same number our homepage states.
Is that a guaranteed SLA?
It is a measurement, not a contractual guarantee. If you need a formal SLA with remedies attached, talk to us and we will tell you plainly what we can commit to rather than point at a marketing figure.
What happens if something fails?
Every server takes a daily off-server backup, so a failure is a restore. We build by hand, which means a person can look at your specific machine rather than a queue ticket.
Does location affect reliability?
Not materially — all 24 locations run the same way. Location affects the round trip, which for Columbus is an estimated 12–24 ms to Chicago.
