Configure this build →These figures are assumptions stated out loud, not predictions about your business. 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 Construction Companies
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 | An ERP or practice-management system needs a database tuned to its own workload, which a shared platform will not allow. |
| VPS Flexible virtual infrastructure with full root access | Workable | Enough for a small team, though the working set of a records system tends to outgrow a modest instance quickly. |
| VDS Virtual server with resources pinned to you alone | Recommended | Guaranteed memory is what keeps the database in cache, which is the single biggest factor in how fast these systems feel. |
| Dedicated Server An entire physical server, configured to your specification | Recommended | The usual answer: a records system rewards a large, uncontended memory pool and consistent disk latency. |
| Bare Metal Physical compute for sustained, demanding workloads | Workable | For large deployments, or where the database and application tiers are virtualized onto one physical host. |

Construction in Memphis, business by business
These are not the same workload. Sized at the large band, here is what each one actually needs.
| Business | Build | Tier | What decides it |
|---|---|---|---|
| General Contractors | 8 vCPU · 128 GB · 4000 GB | Dedicated Server | Drawings supersede constantly, and building to a revision that was withdrawn last week is expensive. |
| Civil Contractors | 16 vCPU · 196 GB · 4000 GB | Dedicated Server | Survey and machine-control data arrive from the field in large daily batches. |
| Electrical Contractors | 6 vCPU · 64 GB · 900 GB | VDS | Test certificates are the legal output of the work and have to be produced on demand long afterwards. |
| Plumbing Contractors | 8 vCPU · 64 GB · 800 GB | VDS | Emergency call-outs mean dispatch has to work at three in the morning as reliably as at midday. |
| HVAC Contractors | 12 vCPU · 96 GB · 800 GB | Dedicated Server | The first cold snap and the first heatwave generate a year's emergency calls in a fortnight. |
| Roofing Companies | 8 vCPU · 128 GB · 3000 GB | Dedicated Server | Drone surveys have replaced ladders, and they produce far more imagery than the old paperwork did. |
| Building Contractors | 8 vCPU · 128 GB · 1000 GB | Dedicated Server | Cost tracking against a live programme is the query that decides whether the job is profitable while it is sti... |
| Construction Management | 16 vCPU · 196 GB · 4000 GB | Dedicated Server | Managing several projects makes the cross-project rollup the heavy query rather than any single job. |
| BIM Services | 20 vCPU · 320 GB · 4000 GB | Bare Metal | Clash detection on a federated model is a heavy, memory-hungry run that people wait on. |
