VPS hosting that puts
the power in your hands.

VPS hosting, or Virtual Private Server hosting, is a type of web hosting that utilizes virtualization technology to provide users with dedicated resources on a virtual server within a larger physical server.

In VPS hosting, a physical server is divided into multiple virtual compartments, each functioning as an independent server with its own operating system (OS), resources (such as CPU, RAM, and disk space), and root access. This allows users to have more control and customization over their hosting environment compared to shared hosting, while still benefiting from the cost-effectiveness of sharing physical server resources.

VPS hosting is ideal for websites and applications that require more resources and control than what shared hosting can offer, but do not yet need the full power and cost of a dedicated server. It provides a balance between affordability, scalability, and performance, making it suitable for a wide range of use cases, from small businesses to larger enterprises.

Nested virtualization is not supported on our virtual private servers. However, our range of dedicated servers and virtual dedicated servers offer the flexibility to run your own virtual machines effectively.

Fiveium Cloud VPS is versatile and ideal for various projects and applications, including:

• Website hosting
• Back-end Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) solutions
• Email server hosting
• Database management
• Self-hosting services like Bitwarden and Nextcloud
• Microservices infrastructure
• Game server hosting (Visit our sister brand GPORTAL for dedicated game servers)
• Torrent seedbox
• Crypto projects such as staking Ethereum and farming Chia

All our Cloud VPS plans offer excellent value for money, with the Cloud VPS 3 plan being the most popular choice among our customers. If you require high-volume storage, consider our Storage VPS plan or Object Storage option. Regardless of the plan you choose, you can deploy servers in any of our eight global regions, ensuring optimal performance and accessibility. For more powerful specifications, explore our Cloud VDS plans or dedicated servers for greater customization options.

Each Fiveium Cloud VPS plan comes pre-configured to provide optimal performance and value. While you cannot customize the hardware specifications, you have the option to upgrade to a higher-tier plan or increase storage capacity as recommended within your plan. For users seeking extensive customization, we recommend exploring our Cloud Virtual Dedicated Servers (Cloud VDS) or dedicated servers, offering greater flexibility and control over your infrastructure.

Yes, you can upgrade to a larger VPS plan through the Customer Control Panel. Go to the admin section, then click “Manage” and select “Upgrade VPS” from the drop-down menu.

If you want to downgrade, then you’ll need to buy the smaller plan through the Customer Control Panel. Once you downgrade, we recommend transferring all the data from your current VPS to the new one, and then mark your VPS for cancellation. You’re always welcome to contact support if you need help with this.

Fiveium Cloud supports many operating systems (we firmly believe in offering as many choices as possible to our customers). You can choose from a wide range of popular Linux distributions: CentOS, Debian, Ubuntu, and many others.

We also offer Windows Server for those who prefer to roll with Windows. If you choose Windows Server, then note that the Windows license fee is added to your monthly VPS fee.

Yes, we offer cPanel and Plesk admin at additional cost. We also offer Webmin for free. Note that we’re offering Plesk for free for the first month across our Cloud VPS, Cloud VDS, Storage VPS, and Dedicated Server plans.

And if you’re not satisfied with Plesk within the first month, then just cancel it before the end of your first month through the Customer Control Panel (you won’t be charged if you cancel it before the first month ends). We also wrote up this admin panel comparison guide to help you decide which panel is best for your needs.

Yes. We have a Terraform provider that allows management of our Cloud VPS, Cloud VDS and Object Storage via the Fiveium API.
