Server infrastructure for GIS & Mapping in Mount Druitt
There is no single correct server for GIS & Mapping; there is a correct one for the workload, the volume and the budget. For a small GIS & Mapping business in Mount Druitt that is about 2 Cores, 32 GB of memory and 800 GB of storage on VDS.
- ✓ 5 infrastructure tiers
- ✓ Sized for your workload, not a plan name
- ✓ Same price in all 24 locations

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.
Why GIS & Mapping size up this way
Working from about 5,000 visits a month and roughly 2,667 requests a day, storage grows by roughly 53 GB a month at this size, which usually decides the build before CPU does; about 28 GB of data needs to stay in memory to keep queries fast; and each request costs real computation rather than a cache lookup, so cores matter more here than on a typical site.

Which tiers suit GIS & Mapping
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 | There is no version of this workload that fits on shared hosting. |
| VPS Flexible virtual infrastructure with full root access | Workable | Useful for development, notebooks and light inference, but not for training or sustained compute. |
| VDS Virtual server with resources pinned to you alone | Workable | Suits CPU-bound preprocessing and data preparation with a guaranteed share of the machine. |
| Dedicated Server An entire physical server, configured to your specification | Recommended | Production compute wants the whole machine, with memory bandwidth that is not being shared. |
| Bare Metal Physical compute for sustained, demanding workloads | Recommended | Training, inference and simulation belong on physical hardware, with GPUs available on request. |
GIS & Mapping workloads you can host
Spatial queries and tile rendering are both CPU-hungry, and a cached basemap is what makes the map usable.
- Spatial database
- Tile rendering & caching
- Layer management
- Geoprocessing jobs
- Web map services
