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.

Budget friendly

Cheap for a build box that runs overnight and that nobody waits on.

Recommended for builds

Dedicated

The usual choice

Dedicated cores mean nothing else competes for them, so a build takes as long as it takes and no longer.

Hourly only

Burstable

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 hour

Add 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.

Software VPS in Lake in the Hills — FAQs

Can I run my own CI runners on it?
Yes. It is your server with root access, so self-hosted GitHub Actions runners, GitLab runners, Jenkins agents or anything else you want to install. No per-minute billing and no queue you are sharing with strangers.
Why does the hardware class matter so much for builds?
Compilation is sustained load from the first second to the last. Shared classes give you processor time when it is spare, which makes build times vary; dedicated cores do not, so a build takes as long as it takes and no longer.
Which runtimes and languages can I use?
All of them. You choose the image and install what you like — there is no supported-language list, because there is nothing between you and the machine.
How fast will it feel from Lake in the Hills?
An estimated 1–2 ms to Chicago at 67 km. For a build server what usually matters more is the round trip to your package registry and your git host, so pick the region closest to those and to the people pushing code.
How much does it cost in Lake in the Hills?
From $283.50 USD per month, with $294.50 USD on the Dedicated class for compilation work. The same prices apply in all 24 locations.
