# Why Linux VPS?
A Linux VPS gives you a dedicated server environment running the operating system trusted by over 90% of the world's web infrastructure. Unlike shared hosting, you get guaranteed CPU, RAM, and storage — isolated from other users — with full root access.
Every distribution runs on AMD EPYC processors with NVMe SSD storage and DDR5 ECC memory — the same hardware class used by major cloud providers, at a fraction of the cost.

What You Can Run on a Linux VPS
Real workloads on real plans. Tap any category to see the details.
Web Servers & WordPress
Host a WordPress site serving 50,000 monthly visitors on the $3.99 plan. Run Nginx with SSL, Caddy with auto-HTTPS, or Apache for legacy apps. Plenty of headroom for static sites, blogs, and small e-commerce stores.

KVM virtualization gives you full kernel access — Docker, Podman, and k3s work out of the box. Run a multi-container stack with Docker Compose, deploy a microservice, or stand up a single-node Kubernetes cluster on Ubuntu or Alpine.

Deploy a Node.js API behind Nginx with SSL, run a Laravel app with Redis caching, or host a Python FastAPI service. Perfect for staging environments, CI/CD runners, and Git self-hosting with Gitea.
Node.js · Python · Go · Laravel · Gitea
Run a managed PostgreSQL replica, host a MongoDB cluster, or deploy Redis for session storage. NVMe SSD gives you 10x the IOPS of traditional SSD VPS — fast enough for high-write workloads up to mid-scale production.
PostgreSQL · MySQL · MongoDB · Redis · MariaDB
Host Minecraft, Counter-Strike, Rust, Valheim, or Palworld servers with low-latency networking and dedicated CPU cores. The 3 Gbps unmetered bandwidth handles dozens of concurrent players without packet loss or lag spikes.
Minecraft · CS2 · Rust · Valheim · Palworld
Run your own private VPN with WireGuard or OpenVPN, set up Pi-hole for network-wide ad blocking, or deploy a self-hosted Nginx Proxy Manager. Full root access means you control every packet that flows through your server.
WireGuard · OpenVPN · Pi-hole · Caddy · NPM

"Great price to performance"
I used Raff Technologies for about a month and the experience was excellent. Very easy to set up and start using, I ran a Windows server continuously without any disconnections or downtime. The pricing is fair compared to the performance and stability I received.
