VPS or dedicated server?
Choose VPS for fast scaling and predictable monthly cost. Choose dedicated hardware when isolation, I/O or full control matters more.
Virtual servers
Scalable VPS, ready in minutes, not days.
Dedicated vCPU, NVMe storage, and Swedish data centers. Fast provisioning, clear pricing, and a direct upgrade path to dedicated hardware when you need more.

Who it is for
Workloads suited to a VPS
Virtual servers are the right choice when you need fast scaling, predictable performance, and a platform you can grow from.
SaaS and web apps in production
Stable operations, fast scaling up and down, and the option to move to dedicated hardware as volume grows.
Development and test environments
Isolated environments for each team, fast provisioning through the customer portal or API, and monthly billing with no long-term commitment.
CI/CD, build nodes, and queues
Temporary workloads that need a fast lifecycle. Create, run, shut down, and pay only for what you use.

Compare the most common infrastructure choices
Use these comparisons to choose the service category that best fits your workload and division of responsibilities.
Co-Location or private cloud?
Choose Co-Location when you own the hardware. Choose private cloud when you want Cygrids to design a platform for your compliance, capacity, and operational requirements.
GPU, CPU or custom compute?
GPU servers suit AI, inference, rendering, and compute-intensive data workloads. Dedicated CPU servers are often better for databases, APIs, and predictable production systems.
Self-managed or supported operations?
Start with standard infrastructure when you run the stack yourself. Add SLA, migration and support when uptime and responsibility need clearer boundaries.
Choose the right path from the start
VPS or dedicated server?
Both options can run in Swedish data centers, but they solve different types of capacity and control needs.
Choose VPS when
you want to get started quickly
You need scalable capacity, clear packages, and fast provisioning without committing to your own physical hardware.
Switch to a dedicated server when you need your own hardwareYou want fixed capacity, maximum isolation, and an environment where CPU, RAM, and storage are not shared with other customers.
Clustered or standalone VPS
Two operating modes with different failure protection
Every VPS plan can run either in a high-availability cluster or as a standalone instance. Your choice determines whether a node failure triggers automatic failover or requires manual recovery.
Clustered (HA)
Your VPS runs across a cluster of nodes with automatic failover. If hardware fails, the instance moves to another node within seconds.
Standalone (unclustered)
Your VPS runs on a single node without automatic failover. If hardware fails, manual intervention is required before service can be restored.
Choose clustered or standalone operation when you order. Contact us if you are unsure which option is right for you.
Plans
Three standard packages plus custom configuration
Choose a ready-to-deploy starting tier or configure the resources yourself. The listed vCPU allocation is dedicated rather than burstable.

What is included
Core infrastructure for production, with optional services quoted separately
You pay for the server. Operations, network, and support are included. Backup is quoted separately based on retention, RPO/RTO, and storage requirements.
Dedicated vCPU, not burstable
The listed vCPU allocation is dedicated, reducing performance variability from shared CPU contention.
NVMe SSD storage
High IOPS as standard. Additional capacity and separate volume storage are available as add-ons.
Backup as an add-on service
Daily backup, retention, and external copies are quoted separately. You choose the protection level based on your requirements.
Sweden-hosted network
A resilient 40 Gbps backbone, DDoS protection, and Swedish IP addresses. IPv6 is included at no extra cost.
Around-the-clock monitoring
We monitor the infrastructure and send email alerts about incidents that may affect your operations.
Swedish-speaking basic support
Tickets are handled by technicians in Sweden during business hours. 24/7 support can be added for production-critical environments.
SLA, support & transparency

Swedish-speaking technicians. All tickets are registered, response times are published, and we review them quarterly.
Support & SLA →Data sovereignty
Your data stays in Swedish data centers. ISO 27001 certified information security management. No data leaves Sweden without agreement.
Data centers & security ->Migration without unnecessary risk
We migrate your existing VPS instances
Whether you are moving from Hetzner, OVH, AWS, Azure, or an on-premises environment, we help you plan the migration, minimize downtime, and define the required backup, resilience, and support arrangements before you go live.

FAQ
Answers before you ask
What we are most often asked about virtual servers: resources, scaling, backup, and upgrade paths.
Are the vCPUs dedicated or shared?
All vCPUs are dedicated. You get the cores you pay for and are not affected by other customers' load. No burstable tricks and no hidden CPU quota.
Can I change plans without downtime?
Yes. Upgrades between plans happen with short or no downtime depending on configuration. Contact support and we will plan the window together.
How long is the commitment period?
None. All plans run month to month. You can scale up, scale down, or cancel before the next billing period without extra fees.
Is backup included?
No, backup is an add-on service. We offer daily backup, extended retention, external copies, and application-aware backup, for example for MSSQL. You choose the protection level based on your requirements. See Storage & backup.
Can I switch to dedicated hardware later?
Yes, that is one of the points of our platform. When a VPS plan is no longer enough, we help you plan the move to a dedicated server
with the same data center, same network, and minimal downtime.
Is all data stored in Sweden?
Yes, by default. Your data and backups remain in Sweden unless otherwise agreed. See Data centers & security.
