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 Logistics & Transport Operators
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. |

Logistics & Transportation in Felixstowe, business by business
These are not the same workload. Sized at the small band, here is what each one actually needs.
| Business | Build | Tier | What decides it |
|---|---|---|---|
| Trucking Companies | 1 vCPU · 16 GB · 250 GB | VPS | Hours-of-service data arrives from every cab continuously and is a compliance record rather than an operationa... |
| Freight Companies | 2 vCPU · 24 GB · 150 GB | VDS | Rating a lane means pricing against many carrier tariffs at once, per quote. |
| Courier Services | 1 vCPU · 16 GB · 250 GB | VPS | Every parcel generates scan events at each hop, so the write volume is parcels multiplied by handoffs. |
| Delivery Companies | 1 vCPU · 12 GB · 100 GB | VPS | Live ETAs recompute as vehicles move, which is continuous background work independent of customer traffic. |
| Fleet Management | 2 vCPU · 24 GB · 600 GB | VDS | Telemetry from every vehicle at short intervals is a relentless, unglamorous write load that never pauses. |
| Warehousing | 1 vCPU · 16 GB · 150 GB | VPS | Handheld scanners are the users here — hundreds of tiny transactions per picker per hour. |
| 3PL Providers | 2 vCPU · 24 GB · 150 GB | VDS | Every client wants their own view and their own integration, so the platform is many tenants in one warehouse. |
| Freight Forwarding | 1 vCPU · 16 GB · 250 GB | VPS | A shipment file is a folder of documents in several formats that customs may ask for years later. |
| Transportation Management | 2 vCPU · 24 GB · 150 GB | VDS | Rate shopping and consolidation are optimisation problems run per shipment, not lookups. |
| Moving Companies | 1 vCPU · 8 GB · 100 GB | VPS | Sharply seasonal around lease-end dates, with almost everything booked for the same weekends. |
| Ride-Hailing | 2 vCPU · 24 GB · 100 GB | VDS | Matching and live location are continuous real-time work whose cost scales with active drivers, not page views... |
| Shipping Lines | 2 vCPU · 24 GB · 300 GB | VDS | Containers are tracked across weeks and continents, so the record lives far longer than any web session. |
| Port Logistics | 2 vCPU · 32 GB · 150 GB | VDS | The yard plan changes with every move, and a stalled system idles very expensive equipment. |
| Aviation Companies | 2 vCPU · 24 GB · 150 GB | VDS | Maintenance and crew records are airworthiness evidence, retained and auditable for the life of the aircraft. |
| Airlines | 2 vCPU · 32 GB · 200 GB | VDS | Disruption is the real test: one cancellation rebooks thousands of passengers in minutes. |
| Aircraft Maintenance | 2 vCPU · 24 GB · 250 GB | VDS | Every part carries a traceable history, and the paperwork is what makes the aircraft legal to fly. |
