Memory, cores and disk can all be raised on the same server later, usually within the hour, with no rebuild and no new IP address — so starting one size below the estimate is normally the cheaper mistake.
Which tiers suit API Platforms
Including the ones that do not, and why — that is usually the more useful half.
| Infrastructure | Verdict | Why |
|---|---|---|
| Shared Hosting Managed space on a shared server | Not this one | Shared hosting cannot run background workers, queues or long-lived processes, which a SaaS application depends on. |
| VPS Flexible virtual infrastructure with full root access | Recommended | The natural home for an early-stage product: root access, your own runtime, and the ability to resize as you grow. |
| VDS Virtual server with resources pinned to you alone | Recommended | Pinned resources give you the predictable latency your customers will hold you to in an SLA. |
| Dedicated Server An entire physical server, configured to your specification | Recommended | Right once the database and the application tier are competing for the same memory on a single virtual instance. |
| Bare Metal Physical compute for sustained, demanding workloads | Workable | For platforms running their own virtualization, or holding a large working set entirely in memory. |
API Platforms workloads you can host
An API is measured in requests per second rather than page views, and the failure mode is a noisy client rather than a busy week.
