The platform
A full cloud, not just a server
Every Cloud Server sits on a platform built to grow with you — automate it, resize it, connect it, and protect it, all from one place.
Deploy in 60 seconds
Provision a production-ready instance in under a minute, from console or API.
Resize on demand
Scale vCPU, RAM, and storage up as you grow, with minimal downtime.
NVMe SSD storage
Enterprise NVMe throughout for fast boot, quick builds, and low-latency databases.
Snapshots & backups
Capture point-in-time snapshots and schedule automated backups in a click.
Private networking
Isolated internal networks to connect your instances securely, region by region.
Free DDoS protection
Always-on network-layer mitigation included on every instance at no extra cost.
Full API & CLI
Manage everything as code — create, resize, snapshot, and destroy through a clean API.
IPv4 & IPv6
A dedicated IPv4 address plus native IPv6 on every instance.
Console access
Reach your server directly through a browser console when SSH or RDP isn't enough.
Regions & latency
Three live regions. More on the way.
Deploy close to your users and keep traffic on the continent. Single-digit latency within each metro, measured to nearby peering points.

Sized for every workload
The right shape for the job
Start on general-purpose and move to a specialized family when your workload calls for it. Same platform, same regions — just the balance of resources your app actually needs.
General Purpose
Balanced vCPU and memory for most web apps, APIs, and small databases.
From $5/mo.
CPU-Optimized
Dedicated vCPU for compute-heavy work: CI runners, batch jobs, media encoding.
From $30/mo.
Memory-Optimized
A high memory-to-CPU ratio for databases, caches, and in-memory analytics.
From $45/mo.
Storage-Optimized
Large local NVMe for data-heavy workloads, logs, and self-hosted storage.
From $50/mo.
Not sure which family fits? Start general-purpose and switch later — your data and IP come with you.
Use cases
Built for what you're building
Web apps & APIs
Host Node, Python, Go, PHP, or .NET behind a load balancer with room to scale.
Databases
Run PostgreSQL, MySQL, SQL Server, or Redis on fast NVMe with the memory they need.
Containers & CI
A clean host for Docker, Compose, and build runners, close to your team and users.
Business systems
ERPs, internal tools, and line-of-business apps on Linux or Windows, run reliably.
How it works
Live in three steps
Choose region, OS & size
Pick a region, Linux or Windows, and the instance that fits your workload.
Deploy in under 60 seconds
We provision your server and run your setup — no manual first-run steps.
Connect & scale
Log in over SSH or RDP, then resize or snapshot anytime from the console or API.
Uptime SLA
99.9%
- Service credits applied automatically when we miss the SLA
- Measured monthly, per region, on network and power availability
- Tier III colocation facilities across all live regions
Support & reliability
Local support, in your timezone
Reach a real engineer who understands your region and works your hours — not a queue three continents away. Backed by a 99.9% uptime SLA on every plan.

FAQ
Questions, answered
None — they're the same product. "Cloud Server" is our name for the virtual machine; the Linux VPS and Windows VPS pages are just that server viewed by operating system. Pick whichever entry point suits you.
Yes. Choose your operating system at deploy time. Linux images are included; Windows adds the licensing fee shown on the Windows VPS page.
Yes. Scale vCPU, RAM, and storage up as you grow, with minimal downtime, and switch to an optimized family when your workload needs it.
Under 60 seconds. Your instance provisions and runs any setup you provide, so it's ready to use — not just powered on.
Yes. Every action — create, resize, snapshot, destroy — is available through a clean API and command-line tool, so you can manage infrastructure as code.
Pay in your local currency using M-Pesa and other mobile money, bank transfer, or card. No foreign card or forex conversion is required.
Every instance supports on-demand snapshots and scheduled automated backups. Snapshot storage is billed per GB beyond your included allowance.
Yes. Our team assists with moving existing workloads into Lineserve at no extra charge. Reach out to support to plan the move.
