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 Used Car Dealers
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 | Workable | Fine for a first storefront with a small catalogue, but checkout under load is where shared hosting shows its limits. |
| VPS Flexible virtual infrastructure with full root access | Recommended | Enough headroom for a catalogue, a cart and a payment gateway, with the caching layers a store needs to stay quick. |
| VDS Virtual server with resources pinned to you alone | Recommended | Guaranteed CPU is what keeps checkout responsive during a sale, when traffic arrives all at once rather than evenly. |
| Dedicated Server An entire physical server, configured to your specification | Recommended | The right tier for a high-traffic store, or one whose database has outgrown what a virtual instance can cache. |
| Bare Metal Physical compute for sustained, demanding workloads | Workable | Reserved for very large catalogues and enterprise commerce platforms running their own search and queue tiers. |
