BUILT FOR EVERYDAY OPERATIONS
Run your application in a virtual machine environment. Compare the vCPU, memory and storage included in each plan.
An additional recovery option for your server. Maintain and test your own backups for business-critical data.
Plan for IPv6 connectivity and verify your firewall rules and application listeners after deployment.
Run dynamic sites and application workloads on high-clock CPUs, with automated weekly offsite backups included in your plan. A practical foundation for both everyday compute and recovery planning.
OPERATING SYSTEMS
Use Linux for web services, containers and APIs, or choose an eligible Windows plan for desktop and Windows application workloads. Available versions depend on the selected plan.

NETWORK / UK / London
Customer networks, cross-border routing and external dependencies shape application response times. Compare latency, packet loss and throughput from the networks your users actually use.
| Connection path | What to measure | Suggested method |
|---|---|---|
| Local customers → application | Peak-hour response and mobile packet loss | Ping / MTR at several times |
| Remote team → administration | Cross-border routing, jitter and remote access | Test from your operating network |
| Application → database / payments | End-to-end sign-in, queries and checkout | Exercise real application requests |
SOLUTIONS / UK / London
Separate customer requests, background jobs and data recovery so each part of the service has an appropriate resource budget.
Host UK-facing storefronts, subscription services and API workers. Keep databases near the application and schedule catalogue imports around British trading hours.
Plan for memory, transfer and image caching
Run sign-in, subscription billing and API workers for British customers. Keep payment dependencies and database round trips in the latency budget, with explicit timeout and retry policies.
Plan for vCPU, database connections and queues
Schedule maintenance around British trading hours and set backup frequency around order and account updates. Apply access reviews and audit logging to shared file services.
Plan for storage, retention and recovery time
Budget for your application runtime, database, logs and expected growth rather than choosing by CPU count alone.
Bandwidth is a connection rate, not an unlimited transfer allowance. Review both alongside your billing term.
Choose an OS, review the order and complete payment. Track provisioning in your POWOKE account.
DATA & COMPLIANCE / UK / London
For UK personal data, assess UK GDPR and Data Protection Act 2018 duties. Define the responsibilities of your business and its service providers.
Check the dedicated IPv4 allocation and actual IP classification. Data centre addresses are not residential IPs; platform acceptance depends on its rules, account eligibility and use case.
The server and its offsite backups may be in different locations. Confirm backup regions, access permissions, retention and cross-border processing for customer or payment data.
A practical handover checklist, from sizing the instance to moving live traffic.
Budget RAM for the app, database and workers together. Leave storage headroom for updates and logs, and keep recovery copies outside the instance.
Test APIs and websites from your target market. A 1Gbps port is burst headroom; memory, transfer quotas and application dependencies still shape capacity.
Apply updates, set up SSH keys and restrict inbound access. Restore a backup in staging, then plan DNS changes and a rollback path.
Review renewal pricing, IPs, licenses and backup charges. Confirm provisioning and resize behaviour before setting a launch date.
Find answers about location, operating systems and billing, plus backup coverage and options as your workload grows.
Choose the UK when most customers are in Britain. Germany, France or the Netherlands are alternatives for audiences concentrated in mainland Europe. Keep database-heavy applications near their database, and compare response times from your largest customer markets if your audience spans both.
Choose from Debian, Ubuntu, AlmaLinux, Rocky Linux, Oracle Linux, CentOS, Fedora and SUSE, plus Windows Server and lightweight Windows 10 / 11 images. Windows needs an eligible plan: the current entry tier has 1 vCPU, 2 GB RAM and 20 GB SSD storage. Smaller plans cannot select Windows because of resource limitations. Check the OS selector for the versions available with your chosen plan.
Click View plans and pricing, then select a plan and billing term to see the total due. Monthly, quarterly, six-month and annual terms are shown where available, with applicable discounts reflected in the order summary. For an existing server, open its management page in your account and choose renewal to review the available terms and renewal quote before paying.
Yes. Automated weekly offsite backups are included at no extra charge. Each backup captures data at a point in time; changes made afterwards are not continuously replicated. For frequently updated orders or databases, add daily or more frequent application backups to reduce the amount of recent data at risk during recovery.
Yes. Where self-service upgrades are enabled, your server management page lists larger in-stock plans in the same location that support your current billing term. Review the quote and pay, then shut down and power on the server after the upgrade to apply its new resources. A paid traffic reset clears usage for the current allocation; it does not permanently increase your monthly transfer allowance.
POWOKE · UK
Review resources, choose an OS and select a billing term before checkout.
Deploy London APIs and UK business websites from $4.93/mo. Entry profile: 1 vCPU / 512MB RAM / 5GB SSD / 1Gbps. Plan memory and transfer for lightweight workloads; verify paths from your users.
Starting configurations are references from the product catalogue. Live plan cards and checkout govern current prices, stock, transfer allowances and operating-system requirements. A 1Gbps port is a ceiling, not guaranteed sustained throughput.
Confirm resources, renewal costs, payment options and delivery timing. Request a product-specific test IP and check routes from your users’ networks.
Match CPU, RAM, storage, IPs and OS to your order. Verify login, remote management access and connectivity.
Run a representative workload and test backup recovery. Save your results and open a support ticket if the delivered configuration differs.
Explore city-to-city latency across public and private backbone networks.

Available gateways, settlement currency and fees depend on the final checkout. Review the billing term and total before paying.
Refund windows, transfer limits, refund destination and eligibility for 99.9% availability compensation depend on your order's service terms. Confirm whether a first-order 24-hour refund applies before purchase; custom hardware and GPU plans may have different rules.
