Linux Cloud Server FAQs

If you still have unanswered questions, please reach out to us and we'll be happy to assist.

What is a Linux Cloud VPS?
A Linux Cloud VPS (Virtual Private Server) is a virtual machine hosted on cloud infrastructure that provides dedicated resources, root access, and full control. Powered by KVM virtualization and SSD storage, it combines flexibility, isolation, and performance without the cost of dedicated hardware.
Which Linux distributions are available?
You can deploy Ubuntu 24.04 or 22.04, Debian 12 or 11, and AlmaLinux 9 or 8. Each template is pre-configured for performance, stability, and security, making it ideal for production-grade hosting environments.
  • Ubuntu: Popular for web servers, application stacks, and cloud deployments with long-term support (LTS) and frequent security updates.
  • Debian: Favoured by developers and system administrators who prefer a lightweight, stable, and open-source environment for custom applications.
  • AlmaLinux: Enterprise-ready and fully binary-compatible with RHEL, perfect for cPanel, DirectAdmin, and other control-panel hosting setups.
All distributions are optimized for high-performance Linux VPS hosting on KVM virtualization and SSD storage in South African data centres.
Do Cloud VPS plans include backups?
Yes. Optional Acronis backup plans start from R249/month for 150GB. Both full and incremental backups are available, secured with AES-256 encryption, ensuring quick recovery when needed.
How is a Linux Cloud VPS different from Shared Hosting?
Shared hosting splits CPU and memory between multiple users, while a Linux Cloud VPS gives you guaranteed resources and an isolated OS. You get root-level control, the ability to install any software, and significantly higher performance.
Is my Linux VPS POPIA compliant?
Yes. All VPS instances are hosted in South African data centres operated by Cloud.co.za (Pty) Ltd, fully compliant with the Protection of Personal Information Act (POPIA). Your data is processed lawfully, stored locally under ISO/IEC 27001 security standards, and never shared with third parties unless required for service delivery or by law. You may access, export, or request deletion of your information at any time.
Can I scale or upgrade my VPS later?
Absolutely. You can upgrade or downgrade CPU, RAM, and SSD storage instantly via your control panel, with no downtime or contract lock-ins - ideal for evolving projects or seasonal spikes.
