New Tampa VPS capacity is live. Deploy a server in minutes.
VPS Features

Full VPS control without cloud platform clutter.

Pulsar67 is built around practical virtual servers: isolated KVM machines, root access, predictable resources, included mitigation, and enough recovery tooling to run real workloads with confidence.

Every VPS

Core features included by default.

  • KVM virtual machine isolation
  • Intel Xeon CPU resources
  • Enterprise SAS SSD storage
  • Full root access over SSH
  • Browser console for recovery access
  • Dedicated IPv4 address
  • IPv6 support
  • Always-on L3/L4 DDoS mitigation
  • Snapshots before risky changes
  • Published 99.9% uptime SLA

Daily backups are included on Pulsar Pro and Pulsar Enterprise. Nano and Starter still include the same VPS control model, networking, console access, and snapshots.

Actual Server Features

The pieces that make a VPS useful after checkout.

This page is about what you can actually do with the server: install software, run services, recover access, store data, expose ports, and operate the workload over time.

Real virtual machines, not shared hosting accounts

Each VPS runs as an isolated KVM virtual machine. You get your own operating system environment, root access, firewall rules, services, users, package manager, and runtime stack.

Storage that fits application servers

Enterprise SAS SSD storage is included across the plan lineup for application files, databases, logs, queues, and package installs. Use snapshots before upgrades and backups on higher tiers for another recovery layer.

Public-service protection included

Always-on L3/L4 DDoS mitigation is included for public services like websites, APIs, game servers, VPN endpoints, and TCP or UDP apps. You still control the host firewall and application security.

Developer-friendly deployment workflow

Bring your own stack: Nginx, Caddy, Apache, Docker, PostgreSQL, Redis, Node.js, Python, Rust, WireGuard, control panels, or plain systemd services. If it runs on a normal VPS, it belongs here.

Capabilities

Feature details in plain language.

A quick comparison of what the platform feature actually gives you and why it matters for VPS workloads.

Feature What it gives you Why it matters
KVM virtualization A full virtual server with OS-level control instead of a limited shared hosting panel. Run Docker, custom kernels where supported by the OS, firewall rules, background workers, and your own services.
Root SSH access Administrative access to install packages, configure daemons, harden SSH, and automate deployment. You are not locked into one web stack or a narrow managed-hosting workflow.
Browser console Out-of-band access when a firewall rule, SSH config, boot issue, or network service breaks remote login. Recovery is possible without immediately rebuilding the server or waiting for manual intervention.
Enterprise SAS SSD Solid-state storage for application files, databases, logs, and package operations. Disk performance and consistency affect web apps, databases, game servers, and self-hosted tools more than most people expect.
Snapshots A point-in-time rollback option before upgrades, migrations, control panel installs, or firewall changes. You can move faster without treating every major change like a rebuild-risk event.
Daily backups on Pro and Enterprise Additional recovery coverage for larger or more important workloads. Snapshots are great for change safety; backups are better for longer-running operational recovery.
Dedicated IPv4 plus IPv6 A public IPv4 address for normal compatibility and IPv6 support for modern routing and DNS. Host websites, APIs, game servers, VPNs, mail-adjacent tooling, and services that need stable public addressing.
L3/L4 DDoS mitigation Always-on protection at the network edge for common volumetric attacks. Public services should not need a surprise add-on just to avoid basic traffic floods.
Published SLA and engineer support A documented uptime target, status visibility, and a support path for platform issues. When something affects the host, network, virtualization layer, or billing, you need a real operational answer.
Use Cases

Good fits for a Pulsar67 VPS.

The platform is intentionally straightforward: pick a plan, deploy a virtual server, install what you need, and scale up when the workload actually grows.

Common software stacks

  • Nginx, Caddy, Apache, LiteSpeed-compatible panels
  • Docker, Compose, systemd services, cron jobs
  • Node.js, Python, PHP, Go, Rust, Java
  • PostgreSQL, MariaDB, Redis, SQLite, search tools
  • WireGuard, OpenVPN, Pi-hole, Vaultwarden, Nextcloud
1

Websites, APIs, and SaaS backends

Run reverse proxies, app servers, workers, queues, and small databases on one VPS, then split services later when traffic or reliability needs justify it.

2

Game servers and community services

Use public ports, mitigation, and predictable RAM to host Minecraft, Valheim, Factorio, voice tools, forums, and companion web panels.

3

Self-hosted productivity

Host personal clouds, password managers, DNS tools, dashboards, monitoring, and automation without depending on a shared web-hosting environment.

4

VPNs and network utilities

Run WireGuard, OpenVPN, reverse tunnels, DNS filtering, and small edge services on a server you control.

5

Development and staging boxes

Use a VPS as a realistic environment for package builds, staging deployments, CI helpers, demos, and always-on internal tools.

Plan Fit

Start with the resources the workload actually needs.

CPU and RAM usually decide the plan. Storage, bandwidth, and backup needs help confirm the right tier.

Pulsar Nano

Small always-on jobs

Bots, uptime checks, tiny APIs, lightweight VPNs, testing, and simple automation.

  • 1 vCPU
  • 1 GB RAM
  • 20 GB SAS SSD
Pulsar Starter

Small sites and personal tools

Static sites, WordPress with caching, small APIs, Docker testing, DNS tools, and hobby projects.

  • 1 vCPU
  • 2 GB RAM
  • 40 GB SAS SSD
Pulsar Pro

Production apps and communities

Web apps with workers, moderate databases, game servers, control panels, and workloads that need daily backups.

  • 4 vCPU
  • 8 GB RAM
  • 160 GB SAS SSD
Pulsar Enterprise

Heavy or consolidated workloads

Larger databases, busy apps, multi-service hosts, larger game communities, search indexes, and heavier Docker stacks.

  • 8 vCPU
  • 32 GB RAM
  • 500 GB SAS SSD

Operations

Features that help when the server is already live.

A VPS is not only about the launch button. The recovery, support, and visibility pieces matter once customers are using the service.

Snapshots before changes

Take a snapshot before major package upgrades, firewall changes, database migrations, control panel installs, or risky deploys.
