Which Nova VPS should I choose for a WordPress site or a PrestaShop store?

The VPS Standard (4 vCPU, 8 GB DDR5 RAM, 100 GB NVMe) at €14.90/mo covers a CMS and light APIs. For an active store, a SaaS product or a game server, the VPS Performance (6 vCPU, 12 GB, 150 GB NVMe) at €21.90/mo is the most requested configuration. You can upgrade at any time.

How quickly is my VPS delivered?

In under 2 minutes after ordering. The operating system is installed automatically: Debian 11 to 13, Ubuntu 20.04 to 25.04, Rocky Linux 8 and 9, AlmaLinux 8 and 9, CentOS Stream 9, Alpine Linux 3.22 or MikroTik CHR.

Can I change plan without losing my data?

Yes for upgrades: they happen at any time, with no data loss and no IP address change. Downgrading is possible as long as your data fits on the target plan’s disk.

Are backups included in the price?

Yes, on every plan: automated daily backup, 7-day rolling retention and 1-click restore. The extended retention add-on raises this to 30 days for €5.90/mo.

Where is my data hosted?

In a partner datacenter in Lyon, France. Every Nova VPS gets a dedicated IPv4 and a free IPv6 /64 block, with DDoS protection included.

Is there a minimum commitment?

No, billing is monthly with no commitment. Annual payment gives a 10% discount across the whole range.

Do I have to administer the server myself?

By default yes: you get full root access on your KVM VPS. The Managed Support Level 2 add-on, at €39/mo, covers OS management, security and updates, excluding application development.

How does it differ from a dedicated server?

The Nova VPS gives you dedicated vCPU on an AMD Ryzen 9 9950X hypervisor, from €7.90/mo and delivered in 2 minutes. A dedicated server reserves the entire physical machine with IPMI/KVM access, from €69.99/mo.

What is a Nova VPS?

A Nova VPS is a virtual private server: an isolated virtual machine with its own dedicated vCPU, memory and disk, on which you hold full root access. Unlike shared hosting, no resource is shared at application level; unlike a dedicated server, several virtual machines coexist on the same physical hypervisor.

Dedicated vCPU: A logical core reserved for your machine, not shared with the hypervisor’s other tenants.
KVM: The virtualization technology used. It fully isolates your system, down to the kernel, which you can replace.
NVMe Gen4: Storage attached directly to the PCIe bus, without the SATA bottleneck. Decisive for a database’s random access.

What the network is actually worth

Figures taken on our own network, not a promise. The method is published so you can reproduce the measurement.

4.29 GHzObserved per-core frequencyMeasured on a production hypervisor. PHP, Node and game engines handle a request on a single thread: this frequency drives response time, not the core count.

20.4 GB/sAES-256-GCM encryptionOn a single core, 8 KB blocks. Determines the cost of TLS on a high-traffic site.

2.6 GB/sSHA-256 hashingOn a single core, 8 KB blocks. A pure-compute reference, independent of accelerated instructions.

Measured on 28 September 2026, from a server on the CorceLink network (AS199863) in France, towards named public reference hosts. Protocol: 10 ICMP packets per destination, 0.25 s interval; the “round trip” column is the mean, the “jitter” column the standard deviation. These values also depend on the carrier connecting you to us: reproduce the measurement from your own link using the ping command and the hosts listed above. CPU figures come from openssl speed on a single core of a production AMD Ryzen 9 9950X. We do not publish disk throughput: measured from inside a virtual machine it is distorted by hypervisor caching and empty-block elision, with a factor-12 gap between compressible and incompressible data.

Shared hosting or VPS

Do you actually need a VPS?

A VPS is not always the right call. Here is how to decide honestly.

Stay on shared hosting if…

You do not want to administer a system: updates, security, application backups.
Your site is a WordPress or a showcase with moderate traffic and no special technical needs.
You have no use for root access, nor for installing your own services.
You would rather have someone manage the server for you.

See managed web hosting

Move to a VPS if…

You need to install your own services: Docker, Node, Redis, a game server, a VPN.
Your resources must be guaranteed and not depend on neighbouring tenants.
You want to choose your PHP version, your web server, your update policy.
You host several projects and want to isolate them yourself.
