Linux needs little — a small website, bot or VPN runs fine on the smallest plan. Disk and vCores scale with memory and the price includes one IPv4 address.

How billing works. Prices are per month of operation, and that is how they are charged — once a month the price of the whole billing period is taken from your account credit. Credit is topped up in advance in the client area; if it is not sufficient on the billing date, the service is suspended. The provider is not VAT-registered, so the prices shown are final. The service is provided by Jiří Viták (Company ID (IČO) 21766177). Terms of service · Privacy policy · Legal notice
2 GB is enough for a small website or bot; plan 4–8 GB for Docker with several containers or a database.
The server is provisioned automatically once paid. Change the distribution any time by reinstalling in the VPS panel.
With ssh root@IP-address. Credentials are in the client area, the IP address also in the VPS panel.
You get a Linux VPS with a clean install and root access. We look after the hardware, network, hypervisor and DDoS protection; the system inside the server is yours.
The first steps after install are always the same: update the system, create a regular sudo user, log in with an SSH key and enable a firewall. The guides below cover each.
Anything that needs its own system, its own ports or several services side by side.
Basic server management does not go through support — you have your own panel for it.

What it meansIf unsure, pick Ubuntu LTS — long support and the most guides. Debian is more conservative and stable; Rocky Linux suits cases that need RHEL compatibility. The current list is in the VPS panel.
Yes, by reinstalling in the VPS panel. The whole disk is wiped — back up your data first.
Yes. Install any software, change system configuration within KVM virtualisation and open your own ports.
The VPS panel has a console that reaches the server even without working networking or SSH — after a firewall mistake, for example.
No. We do not offer automatic VPS backups. Take a manual snapshot in the VPS panel before bigger changes and keep important data off the server.
Yes, one public IPv4 address is part of the monthly price. More can be added for the surcharge listed with the plan.
