How To Choose A VPS Plan: Sizing RAM, vCPU, And NVMe For Your Workload

This blog will explain how much RAM do I need for a VPS. When choosing a Virtual Private Server (VPS) plan, the wrong sizing can lead directly to poor performance and wasted money.

The golden rule is memory first, storage second, and CPU last. In this guide, we’ll show you how to size RAM, vCPU, and NVMe storage for your specific workload. We’ll also cover bandwidth, VPS Hosting types, and when to upgrade. TL;DR: Choosing the right VPS plan isn’t about buying the biggest server you can afford. Start with RAM, then size your storage and vCPU base […]

What Is VPS Hosting? A South African Guide

A VPS is a virtual machine sold as a service, with its own operating system, root access, and a fixed share of a physical server’s CPU, memory, and storage. A hypervisor built into Linux VPS hosting manages hardware partitioning, giving you a virtualised environment. Unlike shared hosting, you aren’t limited by other tenants; unlike dedicated servers, you aren’t paying for an entire physical machine. In South Africa, the decision adds two variables overseas guides miss: physical server proximity relative to your visitors, and Section 72 of POPIA regarding offshore personal data transfers. In this post, we answer: What is VPS hosting, and is it right for you? TL;DR VPS Hosting offers more control, allocated memory and sto […]

Reddit vs Perplexity: The Opening Shots In The AI Data Arms Race

Reddit filed a lawsuit against Perplexity AI earlier this month, accusing the AI company of unlawfully scraping its platform through backdoor methods. Which raises a pretty important question: where’s the line between open and fair data access and unauthorised scraping?

In fact, the court’s ruling on the Reddit vs Perplexity case could potentially shape how sites and Web Hosting providers manage and protect content, not to mention how AI models access and use data.
