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 Pharmacies
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 gives you no control over where data sits or who else is on the machine, which regulated records cannot accept. |
| VPS Flexible virtual infrastructure with full root access | Workable | Workable for a small practice, with the caveat that you own the patching and audit trail unless you add management. |
| VDS Virtual server with resources pinned to you alone | Recommended | Isolated, pinned resources in a data centre you choose, which is usually what a data-residency obligation actually requires. |
| Dedicated Server An entire physical server, configured to your specification | Recommended | A single-tenant physical machine is the clearest answer to "who else can reach this data" — nobody. |
| Bare Metal Physical compute for sustained, demanding workloads | Workable | For larger estates running several regulated systems on hardware you control end to end. |
