AlphaVPS ❯ 2048G
Overview: AlphaVPS offers this configuration across data centers in Dallas, U.S. and Nuremberg, London, and Sofia in Europe. The system runs on KVM virtualization and uses preconfigured Linux templates with support for custom ISO installations. It has 4 shared Intel cores, 2 GB RAM, and 2 TB HDD storage, with a monthly bandwidth of 6 TB over a 1.0 Gbps port. IPv4 and IPv6 connectivity are provided; port 25 is closed and rDNS records are customizable.
Viable Use Cases: The VPS is appropriate for services that require high-capacity storage but moderate I/O performance. It can function as a file server or backup repository where large datasets are stored and accessed periodically. It is suitable for hosting a LAMP stack for legacy web applications that do not demand high disk throughput, or for running centralized logging systems where bulk data collection is more important than rapid access. The system can also support lightweight development environments or continuous integration nodes for projects with modest memory and compute needs.
Critical Considerations: Because CPU cores are shared, performance may fluctuate under system load. The 2 GB RAM limits multitasking and memory-intensive processes, and the HDD storage, while offering high capacity, has lower I/O performance compared to SSDs. The closed port 25 necessitates alternative configurations for outbound email.
