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 Language Schools

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.
