Our High-Performance VPS series offers you the possibility to create so-called “Snapshots” of your system. This means that the current state of your system is saved and stored. This is a useful tool which allows you to run risk-free updates of apps or install new software on your system. In case you encounter any issues afterwards, you can easily “roll back” your system to its previous state. You can perform a Snapshot yourself through your Cafy Customer Control Panel by clicking the “Create Snapshot” button. If you want to reset your system at a later point in time, simply click the “Rollback”-icon. You can find more information in our tutorial on the Snapshot Feature for the VPS.

No, our Virtual Private Servers do not support nested virtualization. Should you need to run your own virtual machines, you can order one of our Dedicated Servers or our Virtual Dedicated Servers.

Storage VPS is a virtual server with a standard hard disk (HDD) and an additional SSD swap to boost server performance. Consequently with this product, you receive a lot of storage space for your data and at the same time the SSD boost ensures that your VPS operating system works faster than on HDD alone.

With High-Performance VPS use can choose between latest solid-state drives (SSDs) and brand new NVMe drives. As a result, the performance of your VPS is significantly better since Operating System and all your data is stored on SSD/NVMe and can be handled with a much better read-write speed.

You can select one of the models available on our website. Beyond that the hardware specifications of our VPS cannot be customized or changed. Should you need a custom configuration consider a Virtual Dedicated Server or Dedicated Server.

Yes, you can easily upgrade to a bigger VPS plan through your Cafy Customer Control Panel.

At Cafy, the choice is yours: Select from a wide range of popular Linux distributions (CentOS, Debian, Ubuntu, and many others) and Windows Server. Since we do not believe in offering pre-configured bundles but let you configure your server according to your needs, the Windows license fee is added to your monthly VPS fee only if you choose this Operating System. The amount charged depends on the size of your VPS.
