Advanced features
Snapshots
Before making changes on your cloud VPS server, you can create a snapshot. If something goes wrong, you can roll back to a stable state in just a few clicks. This feature is included in the server price.
Web Console
Access your virtual server's console directly from the browser, without plugins, even from a mobile device. With the web console you can install an OS or manage the server if RDP/SSH access is unavailable.
Virtual Private Networks
Combine VPS servers into private networks to build high-availability clusters. By default, each server is isolated, but we provide the option to unite them into an L2 network, even across different XServer locations.
Automatic Backups
Virtual servers are backed up automatically. To restore, simply choose a date and click the button. Daily backups are also available for just $5 per month — reliable protection for your data and services.

VPS Hosting in Ukraine
If your audience is in Ukraine, it makes sense to host your server right here — in Kyiv. Latency to your users will be several times lower than from European locations, and your data stays within Ukrainian jurisdiction. Our VPS run on VMware vSphere — the same virtualization stack used by banks and large enterprises. A new server is deployed in under a minute after payment.
These VPS power online stores, corporate portals, CRM systems, VPN servers, staging and production environments — essentially any workload that needs a dedicated server without the cost of physical hardware.
Why Choose a VPS in Ukraine
The main argument is latency. For a visitor from Kyiv or Kharkiv, response time from a local server is just a few milliseconds. You feel it everywhere: pages load faster, admin panels stay responsive, APIs reply instantly. For e-commerce, this speed difference directly affects conversion rates.
The second point is jurisdiction. Some companies (financial services, projects working with government agencies) are required to store and process data within Ukraine. A local VPS solves this without any workarounds. International teams also find the Kyiv location useful — as a node closer to their Ukrainian users.
And then there's flexibility: if your project grows or you expect a seasonal spike, virtual server resources can be expanded without migration or reinstallation. Try doing that with a physical server.
VMware Cloud Platform
We deliberately built our cloud on VMware vSphere rather than free hypervisors. The difference shows in the worst moments: if a physical node fails, the HA cluster automatically restarts virtual machines on a neighboring server, and planned maintenance is handled via live migration — the VPS moves between nodes without downtime, and the client doesn't even notice.
The storage layer is SSD and NVMe. In practice, this means fast OS boot times, responsive databases, and no performance dips under heavy write loads. Docker, control panels, mail servers, development environments — everything runs without surprises.
Upgrades happen on the fly: you can add CPU cores, RAM, or disk space within the same server, with no migration to a different plan or hosting type.
About the United DC
Our servers are housed in a TIER III data center in Kyiv. This is a key point: we don't rent racks from third parties — we fully control the facility infrastructure, network, and maintenance procedures. When something needs fixing or checking, our engineers are on site, not waiting in someone else's ticket queue.
Power is redundant, climate control is in place, and physical access follows a multi-level system with video surveillance. Network connectivity is built with headroom and redundant channels. This infrastructure hosts critical workloads, including business systems and government portals.
XServer Cloud has been in business since 2007, and the Kyiv site is one of the key locations in our network. If you need a VPS with low latency to Ukrainian users and in-country data hosting — spin up a server and see for yourself.
Basic VPS
A basic VPS is the smartest way to launch your project: a full-fledged virtual server with root access, your own operating system, and a dedicated IP at a modest price. One important point: "basic" here refers to the amount of resources, not the quality. These servers run on the same VMware vSphere platform, in the same data centers, and on the same hardware as our most powerful configurations — with HA clusters, live migration, and SSD/NVMe storage.
In our experience, a basic VPS is all most projects on the internet will ever need: not every website is destined to grow into workloads that demand serious hardware. And if yours does — resources can be added in a couple of clicks, no migration required.
What You Can Host on a Basic VPS
The range of workloads is wider than you might think:
- Websites and blogs — WordPress, Joomla, or static sites run comfortably on a basic configuration and handle several thousand visitors a day.
- Landing pages and business card sites — fast, on your own IP, with no shared hosting neighbors.
- Small online stores — OpenCart, PrestaShop, or WooCommerce at the early stage of sales.
- Telegram bots and small APIs — services like these don't need much power; what matters is stability.
- Personal VPN or proxy — WireGuard or OpenVPN set up in a matter of minutes.
- Test and learning environments — try out a new stack, deploy a pet project, or practice Linux administration on a real server.
- Utility services — monitoring, a control panel, a Git repository, a personal file cloud.
Why a VPS Beats Regular Hosting
Classic shared hosting is cheaper, but there you're one of hundreds of clients on a common server: someone else's script can slow down your site, and someone else's spam can ruin the reputation of the shared IP. On a VPS, the resources are yours, the IP address is yours alone, and you're free to install any software: the exact version of PHP, Node.js, Python, databases, Docker — anything at all, right down to your choice of operating system.
And Why Not a Dedicated Server
A dedicated server is a great thing when the load is consistently high. But for a project that's just starting out, it's overkill: paying several times more for capacity that will sit idle makes no economic sense. A VPS also has a practical edge: an upgrade takes minutes with a button in the panel, while changing a dedicated server's configuration means sourcing hardware and moving data. Start small — and when your project genuinely hits the ceiling of virtualization, we'll help you move to a dedicated server without losses.
When a Basic VPS Won't Be Enough
Honestly: a basic VPS isn't for everything. If you're running a heavily loaded database, analytics, or a high-traffic portal — look at the High Performance configurations. If you need to store hundreds of gigabytes of files, a media library, or archives — a VPS with storage on inexpensive HDDs is the better deal. And for projects with critical data, where losing information is not an option, there's a VPS with daily backups and one-click restore.
Try It Now
Start with a basic VPS from XServer Cloud — the server deploys in a couple of minutes, and you can outgrow it whenever you're ready: upgrade the resources, switch to a different scenario, or move to a dedicated server when the time comes. Pay for what you need now, not for headroom "just in case".
