Enterprise features on every complimentary instance

AlaVPS trial plans run on identical infrastructure as paid tiers. Experience true KVM virtualization, NVMe storage and modern hardware on your no-cost cloud instance.

True KVM virtualization

Your virtual machine is a complete environment, not a limited container. Install custom kernels, configure firewalls and run any Linux software stack on your cloud instance.

Fast NVMe SSD storage

NVMe solid-state drives deliver exceptional IOPS for databases and web servers. Even starter plans benefit from enterprise RAID-backed NVMe storage pools.

Full root & SSH access

Manage your virtual environment via SSH with complete root privileges. Deploy Docker, Node.js, Python, Go or any development stack that runs on Linux.

Multiple OS templates

One-click deployment of Ubuntu, Debian and AlmaLinux for your cloud server. Reinstall anytime from the control panel to start fresh.

Global server locations

Choose datacenter locations close to your audience for low latency. AlaVPS operates facilities worldwide across all hosting tiers.

No forced ads or branding

Run your no-cost instance your way. We never inject ads or tracking scripts into your websites and self-hosted services.

Why choose AlaVPS for no-cost cloud infrastructure?

Many "free" offers are time-limited trials or restrictive containers. AlaVPS provides genuine virtual servers with real resources and transparent policies.

💳

No credit card required

Get your virtual server with just email verification. No payment details, no billing surprises— upgrade to commercial plans only when you choose to scale.

⚙️

Real‑world usable resources

Our starter plan provides enough vCPU, DDR4 RAM and NVMe storage to run actual websites, APIs, bots and development labs—not just trivial demos.

🛡️

Fair use, clear rules

Transparent fair-use policies protect shared infrastructure while allowing legitimate users to accomplish real work without vague restrictions.

📈

Simple upgrade path

When your starter instance outgrows initial limits, seamlessly migrate to paid plans or cloud infrastructure without rebuilding your entire setup.

🤝

Developer & student friendly

Perfect for coding bootcamps, university projects, certification labs and learning Linux server administration at zero cost.

🔍

Transparent platform

Clear specifications, honest capacity limits and straightforward communication. AlaVPS focuses on performance, not marketing gimmicks.

What to expect & best practices

Understanding how complimentary cloud infrastructure works helps you maximize your capabilities and stay compliant with acceptable use policies.

Limited but functional resources

Starter plans offer smaller vCPU, RAM and NVMe storage than commercial tiers, yet remain powerful enough for websites, APIs, bots and realistic development environments.

No heavy or abusive workloads

Crypto mining, spam campaigns, DDoS tools and illegal content are prohibited on complimentary instances and will result in immediate account suspension.

Time-limited promotional periods

To maintain capacity for new users, starter plans may have duration limits (e.g., 1-3-6 months). Extensions or affordable upgrades typically available.

Self-managed infrastructure

Complimentary instances are unmanaged: you handle security patches, SSH hardening and backups. Perfect hands-on learning for server administration skills.

Use lightweight software stacks

Choose efficient web servers (Nginx, Caddy) and lean databases (PostgreSQL, SQLite) to maximize performance on your virtual machine's DDR5 RAM allocation.

Implement regular backups

Automated backups reserved for commercial plans. Use rsync, Git or object storage to protect data on your no-cost cloud instance.

Complimentary cloud hosting guide: is it right for you?

Before deploying your trial instance, understand what you're getting, use cases, and when to upgrade to commercial plans.

What is a free VPS?

A Virtual Private Server is a virtual machine with dedicated CPU, RAM and storage. A free VPS uses the same KVM virtualization technology as paid services, with smaller resource allocations and stricter fair‑use policies.

Compared to shared hosting, a virtual server gives full root access and isolation. Compared to dedicated servers, cloud instances offer rapid deployment at zero upfront cost.

What can you do with a starter cloud instance from AlaVPS?

  • Host small websites, WordPress blogs and portfolio sites on your virtual environment.
  • Run REST APIs, Discord bots and automation scripts on your cloud server.
  • Build Docker labs, Kubernetes test environments or CI/CD pipelines with starter resources.
  • Experiment with self-hosted apps like Nextcloud, Ghost or lightweight game servers on your cloud instance.
  • Test and prototype before migrating to production infrastructure or dedicated hardware.

Common limitations of complimentary virtual servers

Every no-cost provider has constraints. If someone promises "unlimited everything forever" at zero cost, be skeptical. Typical limitations include:

  • Reduced vCPU cores, DDR4 RAM and NVMe storage compared to paid plans.
  • Time-limited promotional periods or periodic re-verification for complimentary accounts.
  • Fair‑use bandwidth policies to prevent network abuse on starter instances.
  • Community support only; managed services reserved for commercial tiers.

AlaVPS maintains transparency about resource constraints so you can decide if the starter tier matches your project requirements.

When should you upgrade from starter to paid infrastructure?

You'll know it's time to migrate from complimentary plans to commercial options when:

  • Your websites generate consistent production traffic requiring guaranteed uptime SLAs beyond starter capabilities.
  • Compliance regulations mandate formal data protection that no-cost plans cannot provide.
  • Resource-intensive databases or applications exceed trial allocations.
  • You need automated backups and 24/7 technical support not included with starter tiers.

Used responsibly, a starter cloud instance from AlaVPS is a powerful platform for learning, prototyping and hosting real projects at zero cost before scaling to commercial infrastructure.

FAQ (frequently asked questions)

Common questions about AlaVPS cloud services, specifications and service policies.

Is the AlaVPS free VPS really free?

Yes. The AlaVPS starter plan requires no credit card and has no hidden charges. The complimentary tier may be time‑limited or capacity‑limited, but you will never be billed without ordering a paid service.

What are typical starter specifications?

Complimentary resources vary by location, but generally expect 1 vCPU, 1–2 GB DDR4 RAM, NVMe SSD storage and a dedicated IPv4 address. The provisioning form shows exact specs before deployment.

Can I host production sites on a complimentary instance?

You can host small production sites on your no-cost virtual server, but there's no formal uptime SLA. For business-critical workloads, we recommend commercial plans with guaranteed resources.

Does this service support Windows Server?

Due to licensing costs, starter plans are limited to Linux distributions (Ubuntu, Debian, AlmaLinux). For Windows environments, please review our commercial options.

What activities are prohibited on complimentary cloud instances?

Illegal content, spam, crypto mining, DDoS tools and abusive activities violate our acceptable use policy and result in immediate suspension.

Can I upgrade my virtual server to a paid tier later?

Yes. Seamless upgrades to commercial infrastructure or cloud plans are available anytime via the client portal. In most scenarios we can preserve your data, configurations and IP address assignments to minimize downtime during the migration process.

Are backups included with starter plans?

Automated backups are reserved for commercial tiers. You're responsible for backing up data on your complimentary instance using rsync, Git or external storage.

How many domains can I host on one virtual server?

There's no artificial domain limit—practical boundaries depend on your vCPU, DDR4 RAM and NVMe storage allocations. Lightweight static sites with Nginx caching can coexist efficiently on starter tiers; resource-heavy WordPress multisite or high-traffic web applications may require commercial upgrades.
