Question 1

What is a Cloud VPS and how is it different from shared hosting?

Accepted Answer

A Cloud VPS is a virtual private server that gives you a guaranteed, isolated slice of an enterprise host — dedicated CPU, RAM and NVMe SSD storage with full root access. Unlike shared hosting, your resources are never shared or oversold, so performance stays consistent even under load. It is the ideal next step when you have outgrown shared hosting and need more power, control and isolation.

Question 2

Do I get full root access?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Every Hostripples Cloud VPS comes with full root access, so you have complete control to install any operating system, software stack, control panel or custom application you need.

Question 3

Which operating systems can I install?

Accepted Answer

You can install popular Linux distributions including Ubuntu, Debian, CentOS, AlmaLinux and Rocky Linux. Because you have full root access on KVM virtualisation, you are free to choose and reinstall the OS that best fits your workload.

Question 4

Is the VPS managed or self-managed?

Accepted Answer

Cloud VPS plans are self-managed by default, giving you full control over your server. If you would rather we handle setup, security hardening, monitoring, updates and backups for you, add our Fully Managed support option when you order — same NVMe KVM hardware, fully managed by our engineers.

Question 5

Can I scale my VPS later?

Accepted Answer

Yes. You can upgrade CPU, RAM and NVMe storage as your traffic grows, typically with minimal downtime, so your server scales smoothly alongside your business.

Question 6

Where are your VPS servers located?

Accepted Answer

Cloud VPS is available in 7 real locations with identical specs and pricing at every one: Germany, France, Poland, the UK, Canada, Australia and Singapore. Pick whichever is closest to your visitors on the location page for each region.

Question 7

What is a Cloud VPS?

Accepted Answer

A Cloud VPS is a virtual private server with guaranteed CPU, RAM and NVMe resources and full root access, running on KVM virtualisation — more power and control than shared hosting, at a fraction of a dedicated server’s cost.

Question 8

Can I scale up later?

Accepted Answer

Yes — you can move to a larger VPS plan as your needs grow, keeping your data in place.

Question 9

Which locations can I choose?

Accepted Answer

You can deploy your Cloud VPS in India or one of seven global regions, close to your users.

Question 10

Are backups and snapshots available?
