VPS locations: 14 data centers in the USA, Canada and Europe
INET.WS runs VPS in 14 cities: nine in the United States, two in Canada, and London, Frankfurt and Paris in Europe. Every location sells the same nine plans, from 1 vCPU and 2 GiB of RAM for $4 a month up to 14 vCPU and 40 GiB for $100, on KVM with dedicated ECC memory and a 500 Mbit/s port. What changes from city to city is where the server stands, in which data center, and what kind of disk it runs on.
The table lists each location with its data center, its storage and a test IP you can reach right now.

Ping a test IP from your own machine, or run ping, MTR and traceroute from any location in the Looking Glass, before you order.
How to choose a location
Start with where your users are
Distance is the part of latency that no tuning removes. A site whose visitors are mostly on the US East Coast belongs in Ashburn, New York, Atlanta or Miami; a West Coast audience is closer to Los Angeles, Seattle or Phoenix; Chicago and Dallas sit in between. For Europe, pick the country your customers are in, or Frankfurt when they are spread across the continent.
Then check where the data is allowed to be
Some contracts and regulators say where data must be stored. Frankfurt and Paris are inside the European Union. London is in the United Kingdom, which has its own data protection law since Brexit. Toronto and Vancouver keep the data in Canada, and the nine US locations keep it in the United States. If the rule is about the country, the city does not matter – choose by your users.
Look at the disk
Dallas, Frankfurt, Miami, Paris, Phoenix and Toronto run NVMe; the other eight locations run enterprise SSD. The price is the same. For databases, build servers and anything that writes a lot, start with an NVMe location.
Measure, do not guess
A map tells you little about the route your packets take. Ping the test IP of each candidate from your own machine, or from the servers your users connect through, and compare. The Looking Glass runs ping, MTR and traceroute from our side of every location.
Questions
Is the price the same in every location?
Yes. All 14 locations sell the same nine plans at the same prices, from $4 to $100 a month, with no setup fee.
Which operating systems can I run?
Linux distributions and FreeBSD in every location, with full root access. Ready-made images, from Ubuntu and Debian to WordPress or GitLab, are in the Marketplace.
Can you move my servers from another provider?
Yes, free of charge. Our engineers move existing servers to INET.WS, and the switchover is planned with you in advance.
