Early this year, a new cloud service provider, Vultr, has been announced. Some people call this service as a “Digital Ocean killer”. Vult has been provided the same specs with DigitalOcean with more modern CPU and better price (Vultr provides a cloud KVM with 768M with $5 vs 512M with DigitalOcean). Main features are:
12 worldwide locations
- Pure SSD powered
- Starting from $5 a month with 768M RAM, 15G SSD, 1 CPU @3+ Ghz
- They double the first time credit (so in case you deposit $100, they will double to $200)
- Owned by Choopa/Constant with very reliable network
- You can refer a ServerBear benchmark for their lowest plan for more information
