Step 3: Customize Your Server

After selecting the location for your server, it's time to tailor it to your specific needs. Customize your server based on these three key metrics:

1. VCPU (Virtual Central Processing Unit):

   • Choose the number of virtual CPUs to allocate to your server. This determines the processing power available for running your applications and handling tasks.

2. Memory:

   • Select the amount of memory (RAM) to allocate to your server. Memory is crucial for storing and accessing data while your applications are running. Choose a suitable amount based on the requirements of your applications and workload.

3. Storage:

   • Determine the storage capacity for your server, which includes both the operating system and data storage. Consider the size of your applications and the amount of data they generate to ensure you have adequate storage space. You can also choose between different storage types, such as solid-state drives (SSD) or hard disk drives (HDD), depending on performance and cost considerations.

You can choose between the Nova Sapa, Nova Pro, Nova Duo and Nova Chrono server instances. Each instance comes with varying amounts of VCPU, Memory and storage.

By customizing these aspects of your server, you can optimize its performance and resource allocation to meet the specific demands of your applications and workload.
