Cloud VM

Next
Built with

IBEE Cloud VMs are KVM-based virtual machines you can deploy in minutes from the IBEE Cloud portal, the ibeectl CLI, or the API. Pick a region, plan, and operating system — your server is provisioned with a public IP, root disk, and bandwidth allowance attached.

New here? Follow the 5-minute Launch your first VM quickstart.

What you can do

  • Deploy general-purpose servers (Linux or Windows) in supported regions.
  • Resize CPU, RAM, and disk by changing plans without rebuilding.
  • Attach block storage volumes for persistent data outside the root disk.
  • Take snapshots as on-demand recovery points, or schedule automated backups.
  • Restore in place, restore a single disk, or create a new VM from any recovery point.
  • Monitor CPU, memory, storage, disk I/O, and network throughput in the console.
  • Open a browser console for out-of-band access when SSH is unavailable.
  • Script everything via the ibeectl CLI and the IBEE Cloud API.

Instance families

Two families are available — choose by workload profile, then pick a size within the family.

FamilyUse case
Standard VMsBalanced vCPU and memory for everyday production workloads — web apps, SaaS, APIs, small to medium databases.
Performance VMsCompute-optimized with higher CPU density — high-traffic web servers, gaming, batch processing, distributed systems.

For accelerated workloads (training, inference, rendering), see GPU VMs.

Regions and locations

Cloud VMs are available in the following data centers:
