Estimated from fibre distance, not measured from Back Mountain. Your real figure depends on your connection and route, and lands inside this range.
Choose how the processor is shared
Every class ships the same hardware menu and the same Ubuntu Server 24.04 (LTS) 64-bit image. What changes is how the processor is shared — and the price moves with it.
Availability
Budget friendly
Cheap for a build box that runs overnight and that nobody waits on.
$283.50USD
per month
ConfigureGeneral purpose
Recommended
Consistent processor time, which keeps build times roughly repeatable.
$294.50USD
per month
ConfigureDedicated
The usual choice
Dedicated cores mean nothing else competes for them, so a build takes as long as it takes and no longer.
$305.50USD
per month
ConfigureBurstable
Not for compilation
A poor fit. Throttles under sustained load, and compilation is sustained load throughout.
$0.5859USD
per hour — booked for a window, not subscribed
Book by the hourAdd cores for a heavy release week and take them off afterwards — the change is made by hand on the same server, usually within the hour.
A machine, not a platform
Most managed hosting decides what you may install. A server does not: you get an operating system and administrator rights, and everything above that is your choice.
Any runtime, any version
Install the compiler, SDK or interpreter you need, at the version you need — including ones a managed platform has stopped supporting.
Your editor, remotely
Run VS Code Remote, JetBrains Gateway or plain SSH against it. The machine keeps running when you close the laptop.
Repeatable build times
On a shared class you get processor time when it is spare, so the same build takes a different time each run. Dedicated cores remove that variance.
Where your server runs
All 24 locations cost the same, so pick whichever sits closest to the people who will actually use the server. Choose the region closest to the people pushing code and to whatever the build pulls from — package registries and your git host are the two round trips a build makes most.
