Alternatives to Contabo Cloud VDS "S": 3 Epyc cores & 24GB RAM
Contabo offers a selection of Virtual Dedicated Servers (VDS) ranging from the model S, the smallest and cheapest in the series, to the model XXL, the largest and most expensive. The difference between a VPS and a VDS is that Contabo shares the CPU cores among multiple tenants on their VPS plans, while they reserve each core to the exclusive use of a single tenant on their VDS plans. There are no other differences between the two classes. However, Contabo is known for overselling their physical hardware to hundreds of tenants per host machine, to the point of severely degrading the performance of their virtual servers. For this reason, if you need to use a Contabo service, it is best to opt for a VDS rather than a VPS. The specifications for their VDS S server follow:

Compare this to some contrasting alternatives currently found in our database, shown under here; you can search for more VPSs using the form on the sidebar. All results are dynamically generated from the database. Note that the monthly prices displayed below were obtained by dividing the annual prices by 12 and service providers may not offer monthly billing terms. For compute-intensive jobs, the AMD Ryzen and Epyc CPUs frequently score higher in benchmark tests than the Intel Xeons, so I recommend avoiding Intel if you need maximum per-core performance.
