VPS hosting

In data centres inside the EU, usually in Denmark, Germany or elsewhere in the Nordics. We pick providers whose operations and support fall under European jurisdiction, so there are no transfers to third countries and none of the questions raised by the Schrems II ruling.

The provider only guarantees that the machine is powered and connected. Everything inside is the owner's responsibility. Under our operations agreement we patch on a fixed schedule, and critical security fixes go in as quickly as you allow.

Yes, usually within minutes and with a brief reboot. That is why we suggest a modest starting configuration: expanding once load genuinely rises costs less than paying for capacity that sits unused.

When it runs above two thirds of its capacity most of the time, or the database is constantly waiting on storage. At that point we look at a dedicated server, splitting the workload across machines or tuning the application itself before you buy more compute.
