MasterServer › Linux VPS rental

Linux VPS rental

KVM virtual servers with Linux preinstalled: root access, dedicated cores and NVMe disks. Deployed in minutes and suited to websites, bots, VPNs and small services.

Your choice of distribution

Ubuntu, Debian, AlmaLinux and CentOS Stream — the system is installed automatically on delivery. You can reinstall it at any time from the client panel without contacting support.

Root from the first minute

Full rights over the system: your own packages, kernel modules, firewall rules, Docker and nested virtualisation. A control panel such as aaPanel or ISPmanager is optional.

No licence costs

Linux needs no paid licences, so the plan costs less than a comparable Windows one at the same resources. The gap is most noticeable on the smaller configurations.

Where the virtual servers live

All sites are Tier III European data centers. The location is chosen at checkout and determines the latency to your audience.

What to know about a Linux VPS

1

Which distribution to choose

Ubuntu suits newcomers: it has the most guides and ready-made packages. Debian is more stable and lighter on memory, favoured for long-lived services. AlmaLinux and CentOS Stream are chosen where RHEL compatibility matters.

2

How much resource you need

A small site or bot is fine with 2–4 GB of memory; a site plus database wants 4 GB and up, and a control panel adds about a gigabyte. The processor rarely becomes the bottleneck before memory does.

3

Security from day one

Change the root password or disable password login in favour of an SSH key, move the SSH port and enable the firewall. That closes off most of the automated attacks that begin within hours of delivery.

4

No on-the-fly upgrades

Memory or disk cannot be expanded on a running machine — the configuration is fixed by the plan. When resources run short a new machine is deployed and the data moved with the usual tools: rsync, database dumps, archives. Take a plan with room for the project to grow.

Frequently asked questions about Linux VPS

Can memory or disk be increased later?

No, the configuration of a virtual machine is tied to its plan and does not change. If you run short, we provide a larger server and advise on migrating the data. A move usually takes from half an hour to a few hours depending on volume.

Which distribution should a newcomer pick?

Ubuntu LTS: it has the most guides written for it and the packages you need are almost always in the standard repository. Debian is chosen when stability and low memory use matter more, AlmaLinux or CentOS Stream when RHEL compatibility is required.

What should I do right after receiving the server?

Change the root password, set up SSH key login and disable password authentication, move the default SSH port and enable the firewall. Automated password guessing starts within hours of delivery, and those four steps stop almost all of it.

Can I run Docker and control panels?

Yes, without restriction: the machine has its own kernel, so Docker, containers, VPNs and nested virtualisation all work. Panels such as aaPanel, ISPmanager and HestiaCP install with their standard installers.

Are backups made?

There are no automatic copies on our side — backups are set up by the server owner. The simplest approach is a regular rsync to another server or external storage, plus a scheduled daily dump for databases.

Need more resources?

When a virtual machine stops keeping up, look at dedicated servers: the whole machine is yours, resources are never shared, and the price is locked for the entire rental.
