Node.js hosting,
without the platform tax.
Express, Fastify, Next.js, NestJS, Remix: run any Node.js app on a VPS you control. npm install, point a domain, ship. No compute units or cold starts.
PaaS bills are scary because they're variable.
Heroku, Render, Fly, and Vercel are useful platforms until a traffic spike changes the bill. Scale-to-zero can also become wake-up latency that users feel as cold starts.
A VPS is a predictable flat fee. Run any version of Node, any framework, any database. Drop in a Postgres on the same box. Use PM2 or systemd. The whole stack is yours.
Any Node version
nvm-install, install 18 / 20 / 22 side by side, switch per project.
Postgres on the box
No managed-DB markup. Postgres / Redis / SQLite on the same VPS for free.
PM2 / systemd
Run your app under PM2 or systemd. Auto-restart on crash, restart on reboot.
No cold starts
Always warm. No idle suspension, no first-request lag.
Start small, upgrade when traffic justifies it.
