FAQ
Questions, answered
Yes. Every plan on this page includes a licensed, activated Windows Server 2019 Standard under our SPLA — the price you see is the full price, and it's the lowest Windows license price we offer.
Compatibility and cost. If your application vendor certifies against Server 2019 — common for older .NET Framework and line-of-business software — it's the safest home, and each plan costs less than the same plan on a newer version.
Microsoft's extended support for Windows Server 2019 runs to January 2029, with security updates until then. For brand-new deployments with a longer horizon, consider our Server 2022 or 2025 plans.
Yes. Connect over RDP with full administrator rights from the first boot. It's your server to configure however you like.
Yes. Plans are sized for SQL Server workloads with fast NVMe storage and generous RAM. SQL Server licensing is handled separately from the base Windows license — talk to sales for a sized quote.
Yes. Resize to a larger plan as your workload grows, with minimal downtime. You can also move to Server 2022 or 2025 on a fresh instance whenever you're ready.
Every plan supports on-demand snapshots and scheduled automated backups. Snapshot storage is billed per GB beyond your included allowance.
