Best VPS Type

[JLX89]

Hello All!
Any suggestions on which "flavor" of VPS is best for Cloudron? I'm looking to migrate within the next few days and curious what others have experienced.

For example between Vultr and DigitalOcean:

• Optimized Cloud Compute
• Cloud Compute
• High Performance
• High Frequency

--

• AMD High Performance
• Intel High Performance
• Intel High Frequency
• Intel Regular Performance

Thank you!

@JLX89 it’s best if you state what your usage is, how many apps you intend on having and which ones, traffic amount expected, etc..

@humptydumpty Traffic is variable but might spike at certain times, general usage (WordPress, Uptime Kuma, Joplin, Private Bin, LAMP, OpenVPN, Ackee). I'd probably be running around ~15 Apps.

@JLX89 my opinion : get "standard" on whatever provider you choose.
No need to pay extra for high performance on any metric.
Decent amount of RAM 8 or 16Gb RAM, decent amount of hard disk 250-500Gb.
I would steer clear of the sneaky traffic limits which some set, but even there modest average use will not likely be a problem.
Just my 2p.

Perfect, thank you!! That is along the same lines I was thinking.

@JLX89 my production server with +20 apps is using around 7GB RAM. My home server with two apps is using 1.7GB RAM. IIRC, Cloudron uses around 1-1.2GB alone. Like Tim said, 8GB as a start would be good. You can always upgrade later.
