Benchmarks, infrastructure behind-the-scenes and guides — by the engineers who run the platform.
Benchmarks on identical VPS, use cases, memory tuning: our decision framework for choosing between PostgreSQL and MySQL for your app.
Doubled bandwidth, ECC everywhere: the measured gains after our complete fleet renewal.
From Raspberry Pi to VPS: systemd unit, clean restarts, real costs and classic mistakes for a Discord bot that stays online.
Throughput, latency, attack surface, configuration: why WireGuard wins, and the rare cases where OpenVPN still makes sense.
Isolation, Docker, dedicated resources: what KVM virtualization changes versus LXC/OpenVZ containers, and how to check what you're being sold.
Memory limits, log rotation, backups: the practices that separate a test container from reliable production.
IP reputation, SPF/DKIM/DMARC, PTR and port 25: why self-hosted email is hard, and the pragmatic method to make it work.
innodb_buffer_pool_size, slow query log, indexes: the five settings that transform your database performance.
TLS 1.3, WebSocket, rate limiting and microcaching: the four Nginx configuration blocks we recommend for production.
Kernel, AppArmor, automatic updates, auditing: the full hardening process we apply to our own images.
Dual-stack, Netplan, IPv6 firewall, reverse DNS and Docker pitfalls: the complete guide to enabling IPv6 on your VPS without opening holes.
Stable latency under load, backups restored in 2 minutes: what twelve months of data reveal about our network.
Complexity, learning curve, real-world use cases: our no-nonsense verdict on orchestration in 2024.
Snapshots, application dumps, encrypted off-site copies and restore testing: the 3-2-1 rule applied to a VPS, step by step.
rsync, DNS TTL, final replication: the method proven across 3,000+ migrations assisted by our support.
Ollama, CPU vs GPU inference, measured tokens/second by model size: what really works on a VPS, and what demands a GPU.
You can only manage what you measure: the metrics to track, the alert thresholds, and the stack we run in production.
Three mitigation layers, 800 ms reaction time, 412 Gbps absorbed: lessons from two years of development.
Three models, three cost and performance logics. An honest comparison to find the one that fits your workload.
WooCommerce and PrestaShop on a VPS: TTFB, PHP-FPM tuning, NVMe Gen4 and handling traffic spikes, with our measured figures.
Wild overselling, steal time, stealth throttling: why a $4 VPS actually costs you $80 to $160 a month in lost hours.
Frequency vs core density: our internal measurements to help you choose the right architecture for your workload.
Keys only, custom port, Fail2ban, 2FA: lock down your server's front door in 15 minutes.
