Scalable Windows VPS
hosting for your .NET projects

This depends on a few factors:

• What kind of apps you intend on running? Be sure to check the software’s minimum requirements.
• What’s the maximum amount of memory you may need during peak hours? How much traffic will you get?
• How much storage space do you expect to need?

For example, if you’ve got a small website that doesn’t get a lot of visitors, our W1 package (2 vCores, 4GB ram, 100 GB SSD) will suit you just fine.

However, if your business runs remote work environments shared with 40+ staff members, you should consider the high-end packages, like the W6: 16 cores, 64 GB ram, 500 GB SSD.

Windows Server is the name of a group of operating systems released by Microsoft built specifically for servers. On a swift glance, you may not notice the differences between Windows Server and any normal version of Windows. That’s because both the operating systems share a codebase, and plenty of other of features.

However, Windows Server has tons of additional features that allow administrators to build scalable infrastructures of connected applications and services. Windows servers are most commonly used to run ASP.NET applications, Microsoft SQL, and other Windows programs that need to be accessible via the internet.

Windows Server is super user-friendly and easy to set up. It nearly mirrors the Windows on personal computers, so it has a familiar feel. Most tasks can be completed using the graphical user interface. Whether it’s adding a rule to the firewall or changing something deep in the registry.

Windows Server provides seamless integration with most applications and software, which makes it ideal for shared accounting servers and remote work environments for staff.

The latest versions of Windows Server are rich with features (able to run Linux containers, built-in support for Kubernetes, predictive analytics etc.) and provide various security controls to keep malicious actors at bay.

A Windows VPS is a cloud server that runs on its own Windows operating system and has its own virtual resources, dedicated to you alone. Your VPS is completely isolated from others, and usually guarantees maximum (99.9%) uptime, powerful performance, and seamless compatibility.

• Linux hosting runs some Linux-based operating systems, like Ubuntu, Debian etc. Windows hosting runs Windows Server.
• Windows Server is much easier to use, as it can be easily configured from the GUI. With Linux, you need to use the terminal, most of the time.
• Windows hosting can run ASP.NET websites and applications, accounting software, etc; Linux can’t.
• Windows programmes can run only on Windows hosting.
• Windows server hosting has built-in support for Microsoft Access; Linux doesn’t.
• Linux is an open-source operating system, whereas Windows Server is commercial - requiring costly licences. Therefore, Linux is cheaper than Windows.
• Linux is a much more lightweight operating system compared to Windows Server, which is more resource intensive.

Windows hosting is a hosting provider that rents servers which use Windows Server as the operating system. If you wish to host a website or application that can only run on a Windows OS (e.g., ASP.NET apps), then your best option is to choose a Windows hosting.

Most hosting providers offer different packages for Windows hosting. These packages differ on the basis of allocated resources. For example, the basic package may only offer 4 vCPUs with 8 GBs of RAM; other packages may offer more resources for higher prices.

In addition to running Windows-specific programs, you can also use Windows hosting to build your company’s entire infrastructure. Regardless of whether you want to set up a Kubernetes cluster, run Linux containers, or spin up shielded Linux VMs (Ubuntu, Debian etc.), you can do it all with Windows hosting.

If you don’t find a suitable VM size on our website, please contact us so we can offer you a custom solution to your exact requirements.

You can host as many websites as you like on your server, we do not define any limit. You just have to ensure the size of your machine is always sufficient for the number of resources your sites use. Your package can be upgraded or downgraded at any time to suit the number of sites you intend to host.

Easily! Log in to your customer section, choose the product and select upgrade/downgrade. Upgrades will be processed immediately, downgrades at the end of the month.

At reasonable rates, we offer you full flexibility of your backups. Order a backup plan add-on during checkout. These are snapshots that allow you to roll back your virtual machine to a previous state.

It all depends on the package you decide to rent. A more affordable package will have less CPUs. Our packages range from two vCPUs to 16 vCPUs. A vCPU is a Virtual Processing Unit. One or more vCPUs are assigned to a VM. Each vCPU is seen as a single physical CPU core by your server's operating system.

Larger packages naturally include more vCPU's, however, the CPU is very often not a limiting factor. In the majority of use cases, the most important factor is how much memory (RAM) is needed. Modern PHP/MySQL scripts often use a lot of RAM, so RAM is very important when deciding which package you buy.

Each server is deployed with 1 IP address to start with. You can request additional IP's from us in case you need it. In such a case we charge a small monthly amount in addition.
