Dedicated servers: sizes, set-up time and pricing

Run a high-traffic app on its own DployHub server in Mumbai. Pick a size and disk, see how it is set up, what it costs, and how stop and delete work.

Updated 4 min read

A dedicated server is a machine created just for your app. Nothing else runs on it, so your app gets all of its CPU and memory. You do not need a cloud account or any server skills: we create the server, install DployHub on it, deploy your app and keep it patched and monitored.

Sizes and prices

Prices include 40 GB of disk and a public address, before 18% GST:

  • Starter: 2 vCPU, 2 GB memory, ₹2,682 a month.
  • Small: 2 vCPU, 4 GB memory, ₹4,537 a month.
  • Medium: 2 vCPU, 8 GB memory, ₹8,245 a month.
  • CPU-optimised: 4 vCPU, 8 GB memory, ₹14,901 a month.
  • Large: 4 vCPU, 16 GB memory, ₹15,663 a month.
  • Balanced: 4 vCPU, 16 GB memory, ₹17,550 a month.
  • X-Large: 8 vCPU, 32 GB memory, ₹34,272 a month.

Disk can be any whole number from 20 to 1000 GB. Each GB above or below 40 changes the price by about ₹10.34 a month. Servers run in the Mumbai region. The pricing page has an estimator for any size and disk.

Create an app on a dedicated server

  1. 1

    Choose Dedicated server

    In New app, at the Plan step, choose Dedicated server, then pick a size, a disk size and the region.

  2. 2

    Pay & deploy

    The first month is paid up front from your credit. If your balance is short, Razorpay checkout opens for the difference. See Prepaid credits and top-ups.

  3. 3

    Server is created

    The deploy log shows "Creating your dedicated server…". This usually takes 2 to 4 minutes.

  4. 4

    DployHub is installed

    Next you see "Server created — installing DployHub…" and then "Server ready".

  5. 5

    Your app deploys

    Your app is built and started on the new server, at its usual address with HTTPS.

What you can see

The app page shows a dedicated server card with the size, vCPU, memory, disk, region and status, plus the set-up phases while it is being created. The Metrics tab shows CPU and memory for your app, exactly like on the shared plan.

Security

  • The disk is encrypted, and only web traffic (HTTP and HTTPS) can reach the server.
  • Your apps run in containers with the same limits and isolation as on the shared plan.
  • Operating system updates, monitoring and HTTPS certificates are handled for you.

Stop, resume and delete

  • While the server runs, it is charged hourly from your credit at its monthly price ÷ 730.
  • A stopped server keeps its disk, so it is charged for the disk only.
  • Deleting the app removes the server and its disk, and charges stop. Back up anything under /data first.
  • If your credit stays at zero for more than 24 hours, the server is stopped until you top up.
