Estimated from fibre distance, not measured from Abu Dhabi. Your real figure depends on your connection and route, and lands inside this range.
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
Cheap for a build box that runs overnight and that nobody waits on.
$283.50USD
per month
ConfigureGeneral purpose
Recommended
Consistent processor time, which keeps build times roughly repeatable.
$294.50USD
per month
ConfigureDedicated
The usual choice
Dedicated cores mean nothing else competes for them, so a build takes as long as it takes and no longer.
$305.50USD
per month
ConfigureBurstable
Not for compilation
A poor fit. Throttles under sustained load, and compilation is sustained load throughout.
$0.5859USD
per hour — booked for a window, not subscribed
Book by the hourAdd cores for a heavy release week and take them off afterwards — the change is made by hand on the same server, usually within the hour.
Your toolchain, your runners
A build server is only useful if it can run what you actually build with. This is a machine with root on it, not a platform with a supported-language list.
Any runtime, any version
Install the compiler, SDK or interpreter you need, at the version you need, including the ones your CI provider stopped supporting.
Self-hosted CI runners
Point GitHub Actions, GitLab CI or Jenkins at it and stop paying per build minute. The machine is yours whether it is busy or idle.
Nothing else on your cores
On the Dedicated class no other customer shares the processor, which is what makes a build time repeatable rather than merely typical.
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 pushing code and to whatever the build pulls from — package registries and your git host are the two round trips a build makes most.
Abu Dhabi is closest to Mumbai. Every marker costs the same per month.

Build hosting for Abu Dhabi
We host servers for companies across Abu Dhabi — from the Corniche, Al Reem Island, Khalifa City, Yas Island and Al Maryah Island — and the setup is the same wherever you are: you tell us what the server is for, we build it by hand, and you get access and the login details the same working day.
Mumbai is our closest location at 2,000 km, which makes it the usual starting point. If the people using the server are somewhere else, host it somewhere else — every location costs the same.
