What it does

CloudSigma Cloud Servers are configurable infrastructure for operators and hosting providers. Users can choose an operating system or image, set CPU, memory and storage separately, and retain root access. The platform documents KVM virtualization, snapshots, cloning, API and Terraform automation, and regions in multiple countries. It is virtual-machine hosting rather than a turnkey application deployment service.

CloudSigma Cloud Servers give an operator control over virtual machines rather than automatically deploying an application from a repository. The product site describes flexible resource sizing, KVM virtualization and hosting-provider use; related pages cover Linux and FreeBSD hosting.

A staging VM, as an example

For an illustrative Linux staging host, select a distribution or custom image, choose CPU, memory and storage amounts, then provision the server. CloudSigma documents server creation through its API reference and lists Terraform, Ansible and cloud-init among automation options on its Linux hosting page. Snapshots and clones can help preserve or repeat a configured setup.

Root and kernel control suit workloads that need a particular operating-system setup, but the guest OS and application remain the operator's responsibility. The pricing page describes metering for consumed CPU, RAM, storage and bandwidth, including per-second measurement in five-minute billing segments. It does not publish per-unit rates, so calculate a deployment only after obtaining the applicable rate for the intended service arrangement.

Strengths

  • CPU, memory, storage and bandwidth can be sized independently instead of only through fixed VM bundles.
  • Linux users can choose an image and retain root and kernel control; the product pages also describe snapshots and cloning.
  • The API and Terraform options support repeatable server provisioning.

Watch out for

  • Root access leaves guest operating-system and application setup to the operator; this is not presented as managed application hosting.

Best for

  • Hosting providers building or reselling a branded cloud or VPS service.
  • Linux operators who need root control and independently chosen resource amounts.
  • Teams automating repeatable server provisioning with an API or Terraform.
