Choose a server and region

Compare CPU allocation, memory, disk, transfer, and deployment location before placing an order.

Start with the workload

Memory must fit your operating system, application processes, and peak working set. Include room for logs, uploads, deployments, and data growth when sizing disk space.

CPU count is useful when your application can run work in parallel. Measure representative traffic or jobs before choosing capacity for a demanding workload.

  1. Shared CPU suits lighter or variable CPU use.
  2. Dedicated CPU suits sustained processing demand.
  3. CPU Optimized has 2 GB of memory per vCPU.
  4. General Purpose has 4 GB of memory per vCPU.
  5. High Memory focuses on larger in-memory working sets.

Choose a region deliberately

Choose a region close to the people or services that use your application. Also consider where your application data needs to reside and where its dependencies run.

The Regions page shows the wider footprint. Pricing and configuration show availability for the exact server you select. A listed region does not mean every configuration is available there.

Read the complete configuration

Compare memory, vCPUs, disk, included transfer, and current monthly price together. Dedicated CPU is a virtual-machine resource allocation, not a whole physical server.

Checkout bills the displayed monthly amount. An hourly reference in the catalog is for comparison and does not turn the subscription into pay-per-hour billing. Optional services can change the order total.
