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.
Frequently Asked Questions

VPS Hosting in the Netherlands
Amsterdam is a classic choice for European hosting, and for good reason: one of the densest network infrastructures in the world, short routes across Western Europe, and excellent connectivity to the UK, Scandinavia, and North America. Virtual servers here run on the same VMware vSphere platform as the rest of our locations: a new server deploys within minutes, and resources can be adjusted without moving to different hardware.
The Dutch location suits a wide range of workloads: websites and online stores with a European audience, SaaS platforms, VPN services, CI/CD and development environments, corporate applications. An added bonus is the country's liberal data regulations, which have long made the Netherlands a favorite among international digital projects and startups.
Why Choose a VPS in the Netherlands
Amsterdam's trump card is the network. Our site is connected to AMS-IX, one of the largest internet exchange points in the world. In practice, this means short and predictable routes in virtually any direction: traffic to most European operators flows directly, without unnecessary transit hops. For websites, that translates to consistently fast loading; for SaaS and APIs — responsiveness; for VPNs — stable connections from multiple countries.
Geography works in this location's favor too. From Amsterdam, latency is comfortable to Germany, France, the Benelux, the UK, and Scandinavia — if your project's audience is spread across Western Europe, it's hard to find a better spot. Transatlantic routes are solid as well, which is why Amsterdam is often picked by projects with part of their user base in North America.
And then there's the standard advantage of the cloud model: vCPU, RAM, and disk space can be scaled on demand, with no hardware procurement or lengthy migrations. Handy during seasonal peaks, new service launches, or active development.
VMware Cloud Platform
As in our other locations, the cloud in Amsterdam is built on VMware vSphere — an enterprise virtualization platform, not a free hypervisor. The difference shows in critical moments: if a physical node fails, the HA cluster automatically restarts virtual machines on healthy servers, and planned maintenance is handled via live migration — the VPS moves between nodes without service interruption.
The storage layer is built on SSD and NVMe: fast OS boot times, responsive databases, smooth handling of container images and builds. There's enough headroom not just for standard web hosting, but also for demanding dev/test environments, business applications, and multi-tenant SaaS services.
About the NorthC Data Center
Servers are housed in the NorthC data center, a TIER III facility in Amsterdam. The site is designed for business-critical workloads: power, cooling, and network connections are redundant, the infrastructure is monitored around the clock, and access to server rooms is controlled.
The location amplifies the engineering strengths: NorthC sits close to Europe's key telecom hubs, which simplifies circuit provisioning and adds flexibility in route selection.
XServer Cloud has been in business since 2007. If your project needs a platform at the heart of the European internet — with direct access to AMS-IX and fast response times across Western Europe — spin up a VPS in Amsterdam and see for yourself.
