How your Fedora VPS is built

Four layers, from our hardware to your software. Everything above the infrastructure is yours to control.

1
ClientVPS infrastructure
KVM virtualisation with dedicated vCPU and RAM, NVMe or SSD storage, fast networking and DDoS protection on every server.
2
Fedora 44 base system
A current kernel, systemd and SELinux, released and maintained by the Fedora Project with Red Hat's backing.
3
dnf and Fedora repositories
Up-to-date packages, plus Copr for community builds and Podman for containers.
4
Your applications
Development environments, CI runners, containers and services that need the latest toolchains.

Why run Fedora on a VPS

The latest software

New kernels, compilers and language versions arrive in Fedora months or years before long-term releases.

A preview of RHEL

Fedora is the upstream of CentOS Stream and RHEL, so you can test what enterprise Linux will look like.

Secure defaults

SELinux is enforcing and packages are built with modern hardening options.

Fast, automatic setup

Fedora installs automatically on our instant plans, and you can log in over SSH within minutes.

Why experienced users choose Fedora

Upstream first

Fedora ships software close to how its developers release it, with few distribution-specific patches.

DNF5 package manager

A fast, rewritten dnf that resolves and installs packages quickly.

Podman and containers

Run containers without a daemon, as a normal user, with Docker-compatible commands.

Modern toolchains

Recent GCC, LLVM, Python, Go and Rust versions out of the box.

Copr community builds

Install software that is not in the main repositories from community-maintained Copr projects.

Clear, regular releases

A new release roughly every six months, with a documented upgrade path between them.

Who Fedora is best for

Developers

Build and test with the newest compilers, languages and libraries.

CI and build servers

Run build agents that need current toolchains.

RHEL testers

Try changes that will reach CentOS Stream and RHEL later.

Linux enthusiasts

Learn modern Linux with SELinux, systemd and Podman.

When Fedora is not the best choice

You want to set up a server once and leave it for years

Each Fedora release is supported for about 13 months, so you will upgrade at least once a year.

See Rocky Linux VPS

You need control-panel or vendor support

Most control panels and commercial software support LTS or RHEL-compatible systems, not Fedora.

See Ubuntu VPS

Best workloads for a Fedora VPS

Development servers

Remote environments with the latest languages.

CI runners

GitHub, GitLab or Forgejo runners for builds and tests.

Containers with Podman

Rootless containers and pods.

Testing new releases

Check your software against tomorrow's libraries.

Web apps

Modern apps that use recent language runtimes.

Learning and labs

A safe place to learn SELinux, systemd and firewalld.

How much VPS does Fedora need?

What you run	Recommended resources
Small app or test server	2 vCPU, 4 GB RAM
Development environment	3 vCPU, 4 GB RAM
CI runner or several containers	4 vCPU, 8 GB RAM
Heavy builds	8 vCPU, 16 GB RAM

Fedora updates and server maintenance

Your VPS is self-managed: you decide when updates and upgrades happen. These habits keep it secure.

Update often
Fedora moves fast; run dnf upgrade weekly, or install dnf-automatic.
Upgrade to each new release
Use dnf system-upgrade within a few weeks of a new release so you are never on an unsupported version.
Back up before upgrading
Release upgrades replace many packages at once; keep a copy of your data first.
Reboot after kernel updates
Kernel updates are frequent; restart regularly to run the latest one.

Get started with your Fedora VPS

1
Connect over SSH
Use the IP address and root password from your client area, or the SSH key you added when ordering.
ssh root@YOUR_SERVER_IP
2
Update the system
Install the latest security updates before anything else.
dnf upgrade --refresh -y
3
Enable the firewall
Install and start firewalld, then allow SSH. Open more services only as you need them.
dnf install -y firewalld && systemctl enable --now firewalld && firewall-cmd --permanent --add-service=ssh && firewall-cmd --reload

Fedora compared with common alternatives

Alternative	Main difference	Choose it when
Ubuntu	Five-year LTS releases with automatic security updates and the most tutorials.	You want to upgrade rarely.
Rocky Linux	The same RHEL family, frozen for about ten years per version.	You need RHEL compatibility and stability.
Debian	Minimal and very stable, with long support.	You prefer apt and a slower pace.

Compare operating systems

You choose the system when you deploy and can reinstall with another one later from your client area. Windows runs on our Windows-ready plans, Fedora on our NVMe cloud plans.

System	Best for	Releases and support	Updates and packages
Ubuntu	Most users and modern app stacks	LTS every two years, five years of updates	apt
Debian	Stable, long-running servers	New stable release about every two years	apt
AlmaLinux	cPanel and RHEL-certified software	Follows RHEL, about ten years per version	dnf
Rocky Linux	Former CentOS users and enterprise apps	Follows RHEL, about ten years per version	dnf
Fedora This page	Developers who want the newest software	New release every six months, about 13 months of support	dnf
Windows Server	Windows software, .NET and Remote Desktop	Long-term releases with about ten years of support	Windows Update

Fedora VPS FAQ

Which Fedora version do you offer?

Fedora 44, the current release. You can move to later releases yourself with dnf system-upgrade.

How long is each Fedora release supported?

About 13 months: until four weeks after the release that comes two versions later.

Is Fedora good for a production server?

It can be, if you are comfortable upgrading about once a year. For servers that should run for years untouched, choose Rocky Linux, AlmaLinux, Debian or Ubuntu LTS.

How do I upgrade to the next Fedora release?

Back up, update the system, then use dnf system-upgrade to download the new release and reboot into the upgrade. The Fedora documentation describes each step.

Is Fedora related to Red Hat Enterprise Linux?

Yes. Fedora is the upstream of CentOS Stream, which in turn leads to RHEL. Red Hat sponsors the Fedora Project.

Does Fedora use SELinux?

Yes. SELinux is enforcing by default. If an application is blocked, adjust its policy or file context rather than turning SELinux off.

Can I run Docker on Fedora?

Yes. Docker provides packages for Fedora, and Podman, which is included, runs most Docker images and commands without a daemon.

Do I get full root access?

Yes. You log in as root over SSH, install any software with dnf, change any setting and reinstall the system from your client area.

Can I switch to another operating system later?

Yes. You can reinstall the server from your client area with another system, such as Rocky Linux or AlmaLinux, which are supported for longer. Reinstalling erases the disk, so back up your data first.

How can I pay?

The Fedora VPS plans on this page start at … a month on yearly billing, which saves 15%, or … a month paid monthly. You pay in cryptocurrency, such as Bitcoin, USDT and Monero, or from your ClientVPS account balance, and you only need an email address to sign up.
