What you get with Compute Instance today

NodeRings surfaces Compute Instance plans from multiple providers so you can match cost and performance to the job, without locking into a single vendor catalog.

  • Compute Instance

    Live on the marketplace today.

    Cost-effective virtual servers for sites, APIs, staging, and lighter production loads. Compare plans across independent providers in one search.

  • Fixed or usage-based

    Pick the billing model that fits.

    Choose fixed-price or usage-based billing for each plan. Filter by the model you want, then deploy.

  • One console after deploy

    Operate without vendor panel hopping.

    Launch into a single client console for instances, billing, and monitoring. The same control plane will cover more product lines as they launch.

Shared CPU

Simple, cost-effective compute

Shared CPU plans keep pricing low by pooling host capacity. Extra headroom can show up when the machine is quiet, ideal for websites, test environments, and lighter production loads.

Dedicated CPU

Full cores when you need them

Dedicated CPU plans reserve processing power for your instance. Use them for sustained traffic, encoding, game sessions, and databases where predictable performance matters more than the lowest sticker price.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

What is a Compute Instance?

A Compute Instance is a virtual machine with its own OS, memory, and storage. You get root-level control without buying and racking physical hardware, and you can scale by resizing or adding instances.

How is NodeRings different from a single cloud?

NodeRings is a marketplace and control plane. Independent hosting providers list capacity; you compare offers, order in one portal, and the provider’s NodeRings agent provisions on their infrastructure. Billing and monitoring stay in your client console.

Is only Compute Instance available?

Compute Instance is live on the marketplace today. Game servers, dedicated servers, GPU, and more are planned and shown as Coming soon on the product hub, not sold until they ship.

Fixed price or usage-based?

Both are available. Pick fixed-price or usage-based for each plan, and filter marketplace search by the billing model you prefer.

What can I run on a Compute Instance?

Most Linux workloads: web stacks, app servers, databases, game servers, workers, and custom images. Pick the region and plan that match latency and capacity needs.
