Fedora VPS Hosting in Kenya, Tanzania and Nigeria

Fedora releases are supported for about 13 months, so they suit servers you actively maintain and upgrade. For boxes you want to set up and leave for years, Ubuntu LTS, Debian, Rocky or AlmaLinux are the better fit — we offer them all.

Yes. All Linux images, Fedora included, are free on every plan — the plan price is the full price of the server.

Yes. Every Fedora VPS gives you complete root access and SSH key authentication from the moment it boots. It's your server to configure however you like.

Yes. Provide cloud-init user data at deploy and your server bootstraps itself on first boot — packages installed, users created, keys in place before you ever log in.

Yes. Fedora's dnf system-upgrade moves you to the next release in place — snapshot first so you can roll back in a click. Or rebuild fresh; deploys take under a minute.

Every plan supports on-demand snapshots and scheduled automated backups. Snapshot storage is billed per GB beyond your included allowance.

Usually not. Around thirteen months of support per release means a machine you want to leave alone will need a release upgrade before you have forgotten it exists. For the production tier take Ubuntu LTS or Debian, or Rocky Linux and AlmaLinux if you are in the Red Hat family — then keep Fedora beside them for the work it is good at.

The current one, kept up to date, with a new major arriving roughly every six months. Moving between releases is dnf system-upgrade in place, or a fresh instance since deploys take under a minute. Snapshot first either way.

The same one as the thing it is standing in for. A staging environment in a different country from production tests your code but not your deployment, and the differences that bite in these markets — origin distance, domestic routing, mobile clients — are exactly the ones a distant staging box hides.

A 2 GB plan is $21.95 a month, and a cloud server built to your own spec starts at $13.89 for 1 vCPU, 1 GB of RAM, 20 GB and an IPv4. Instances go on and come off as you use them and arrive on one invoice at the end of the month, which is the shape most experimentation actually takes.

Yes, on one console, one API token and one invoice. The region is a parameter on the call rather than a separate endpoint or account, so a script that provisions ke-1a, tz-1a and ng-1a in one loop is the normal way to do it.

How your origin behaves when the request does not cross an ocean: how many round trips your page really makes, which of them are uncached, and what your TLS and API sequences cost when the base distance is a city rather than a continent. In-metro round trips in these cities are typically single-digit milliseconds, which changes what your slowest endpoint turns out to be.

If it is a copy of production, yes. A dump of Tanzanian customer records taken to a laptop or a European staging box is a transfer of personal data out of Tanzania, which requires a permit from its Commission — and Kenya's and Nigeria's statutes have their own conditions. Testing in-region on synthetic data avoids the whole conversation.

That is what the API and CLI are for. Instances, snapshots, private networking and IP allocation are all covered, one token works across all three regions, and cloud-init runs your setup on first boot so a box is ready before you would have finished logging into it.

Your data stays in the region you deploy to. Across our data centres in Nairobi (Kenya), Dar es Salaam (Tanzania), and Lagos (Nigeria) it never has to leave the continent — deploy in the country closest to your users and your data is held there.

In whichever of our three regions you choose — Nairobi (ke-1a), Dar es Salaam (tz-1a), or Lagos (ng-1a). Your content is stored and served from that in-country facility.

Pay in USD by card or bank transfer — or switch to our Kenya, Tanzania, Nigeria or Uganda market to pay locally in KES, TZS, NGN or UGX with methods like M-Pesa and MTN Mobile Money.

You can view and pay in USD, or switch to a local market to pay in KES (Kenya), TZS (Tanzania), or NGN (Nigeria). You're settled in the currency you choose at checkout.
