Virtual Machine

Cloud compute instances with predictable pricing across global Akamai edge regions

Secure, elastic, high-performance virtual machine instances across general-purpose, compute-optimised, memory-optimised, GPU, and bare metal families with per-second billing

Hourly- or monthly-billed virtual servers spanning Smart (fixed-size, low cost), Pro (configurable vCPU/RAM/SSD), and Pro+ (NVMe) tiers across Italian and other EU datacentres

Secure, resizable virtual servers in the cloud with on-demand, reserved, spot, and savings-plan pricing, over 600 instance types, and Nitro-based hardware isolation

On-demand scalable virtual machines with D, E, F, L, M, and N series sizes, spot pricing, reserved instances, availability sets, and availability zones

KVM-based SSD cloud servers with hourly billing and a 100% UK-resident footprint, sized from nano (1 vCPU / 256 MB) up to high-memory and high-CPU shapes

Per-second-billed virtual machines with Linux distros, custom images, GPU instances, and integration with managed Kubernetes — the LON1 region runs on bare-metal hardware managed in-house

Scalable virtual machines (Linux-based) with predictable pricing and one-click apps

KVM-based VMs across Standard, GPU, Storage-Optimised, and Memory shapes with per-minute billing and Anti-Affinity Groups for HA

Scalable high-performance virtual machines with custom machine types, live migration, per-second billing, and sustained-use and committed-use discounts

Shared-vCPU KVM cloud VMs (CX/CPX x86 and CAX Ampere ARM lines) with hourly billing capped at a monthly maximum and free traffic allowance

On-demand virtual cloud servers with multiple instance types

Virtual server instances on shared or dedicated infrastructure

Customisable virtual server instances with per-minute billing in EU datacentres

KVM-based virtual machines on OpenStack Nova with hourly billing, general-purpose / CPU-optimised / memory-optimised / GPU shapes, and Amsterdam-resident hosting. The IaaS-compute foundation under everything else in the Leaf catalogue.

Virtual servers in Korea, Japan, Singapore, US-West, and Germany with high-CPU, GPU, and bare-metal flavours — billed by the second after the first hour

Compute service that schedules and manages virtual machine instances across hypervisors (KVM, libvirt, Hyper-V, VMware, Ironic for bare metal). The reference implementation behind every OpenStack-based private cloud — equivalent to EC2 / Azure VMs / Compute Engine in the cross-provider mapping

Bare-metal and virtual machine compute instances on Oracle Cloud Infrastructure

Reliable, scalable virtual machines hosted in OVHcloud datacentres

Cloud virtual machines including ARM-based and dedicated CPU options, billed per minute

Hourly-billed virtual machines built on OpenStack with shared and dedicated CPU flavours, custom images, and integration with the STACKIT private network — German-only data residency

Elastic compute service offering scalable, secure virtual machines across 30+ global regions with a range of instance families, spot instances, dedicated hosts, and bare-metal options, plus per-second billing on eligible SKUs

MaxIOPS NVMe-backed KVM cloud servers with per-minute billing and a 100% uptime SLA across 15 zones in Europe, North America, APAC, and Oceania

Hourly-billed virtual machines with shared and dedicated CPU, custom ISO uploads, snapshots, and a global private network spanning every Vultr region
