Who are root servers for?

Root servers fit Docker/PaaS, production databases, CI/CD, game servers and agencies that need predictable CPU performance. You get root access and can choose the operating system.

What is different from a VPS?

Root servers provide dedicated cores; VPS shares cores via KVM. In our YABS runs, root server CPU steal is 0.0%, while VPS can fluctuate under neighbour load. Nested KVM is not enabled by default and must be confirmed with support.

Price and performance

The G12.5 range goes from RS 500 for small services to RS 8000 for large databases and AI workloads. All plans include NVMe storage and 2.5 Gbit/s ports; exact prices are on the plan pages.

Frequently asked questions

Which root server for Docker?

RS 1000 is enough for smaller stacks; RS 2000 is the safer choice for multiple containers, databases and CI/CD.

Is nested KVM available?

Not by default. Docker and LXC run normally; for real KVM VMs in Proxmox, the SVM flag must be enabled by support. It is not guaranteed and may be chargeable.

Does the voucher apply to root servers?

For most G12.5 root servers yes; check the code in the cart. Exclusions are domains, VPS ARM, VPS Lite and merchandise.
