Pick a region:
Houston or Singapore.
Grab the globe to spin it. Live regions glow.
Same plans and the same price in both. One account, one wallet, one bill. Pick the region closest to the people who will use the server.
Houston
Low-latency reach across North & South America, DDoS-scrubbed transit, and real IPv4 — Space City is where the Americas come online.
Explore HoustonSingapore
The APAC hub where the region's subsea cables meet — minimal hops to India, SE-Asia and East Asia. Carrier-dense, always on.
Explore SingaporeFrankfurt
European presence for EU data-residency — next region to come online.
Los Angeles
West-coast reach for the Americas and a shorter hop across the Pacific — on the map next.
Tokyo
Low-latency East Asia — Japan, Korea and the wider Pacific rim. Coming to the map.
Mumbai
India and South Asia, close to home — next on the map.
The regions
Two of them. Both run the same platform and the same images, and an Ember, Flare or Blaze costs $5, $10 or $20 a month whichever one you pick.
| Region | Coordinates | Status | Near |

| Singapore — SG, APAC | 1.35°N · 103.82°E | Live | Tokyo, Mumbai, Sydney, Jakarta |
Latency follows distance
Distance decides. A packet from your user to your server takes a physical path across the internet, and nothing we do at our end makes that path shorter, which is why the region you pick matters more than any setting you will ever change in the dashboard.
We publish no latency figures, because we haven't measured yours. Your route, your ISP and your users' location set it. Boot a server in the region nearest your users and measure it from where they sit.
A region is only a location
It's where your server sits. The product is the same either way: a KVM virtual machine that boots its own kernel, with root and a public IPv4.
Questions about regions
Which region should I pick?
The one closest to the people who will use the server. Serving the Americas, pick Houston. Serving India or East Asia, pick Singapore. If your users are split, run one in each: the price is the same and both come off the same wallet.
Where does my data live?
In the region you picked. A server's disk, its snapshots and its backups stay there for as long as the server exists.
Can I move a server between regions?
Not in place. Snapshot the server, then launch that image in the other region. It's the same platform on both ends, so the image boots the same way.
Does a server in either region bill while it's stopped?
Yes. A stopped server still holds its vCPU, memory and disk, so it bills at the same rate until you destroy it. Destroying it stops billing that hour. The same goes for block storage and reserved IPs: they bill while they exist, even detached, and a snapshot you keep past the free three bills $1/mo.
