# CLOUD.SSD compute instances

## CLOUD.SSD compute instances — general purpose

The standard line of cloud instances on hardware RAID5 SSD arrays (~20,000 IOPS), powered by Intel Xeon processors. Balanced vCPU and RAM for web applications, databases and production environments with predictable load. Infrastructure across three availability zones in Poland — your data stays in the country.

- [See pricing](#cennik)

## Why CLOUD.SSD

### Balanced vCPU and RAM

An even ratio of compute to memory on Intel Xeon processors — a general-purpose instance that favours neither CPU nor I/O.

### SSD arrays at ~20,000 IOPS

Local hardware RAID5 SSD arrays. Steady, predictable IOPS with no storage shared over a SAN with other tenants.

### Three availability zones

Infrastructure spread across three independent data centers joined by a 100 Gbps fiber ring. A single facility failure does not stop your services.

### Monthly billing, no contracts

You pay for the actual time an instance runs. No long-term commitments and no cancellation penalties — you scale in step with the project.

### Data in Poland, GDPR-compliant

Processing exclusively in Polish data centers, with Polish support and contracts. Full control over where your data lives.

### Scaling and automation

Grow vCPU, RAM and storage as your project expands. Restarts, SSH keys, the nodeaD agent firewall and records in Nodea DNS zones are also available through REST API v1 and the MCP server. Full reverse-DNS personalisation for IPv4 addresses and complete control over the instance.

## What will you run on CLOUD.SSD instances?

### Web applications and APIs

Balanced vCPU and RAM plus steady IOPS on SSD arrays make a solid fit for websites, API backends and production environments with predictable load.

### General-purpose databases

Local SSD arrays at ~20,000 IOPS keep write latency low for MySQL, PostgreSQL and Redis — without reaching for the pricier NVMe storage when it isn't needed.

### Staging, CI/CD and test environments

Monthly billing with no long-term contracts and resource scaling let you spin up instances for staging, testing and pipelines for exactly as long as the project runs.

## Integrated with the Nodea cloud platform

### WEB monitoring

Every instance is connected to the app.nodea.io/app platform, where built-in monitoring of sites and services comes as standard. We watch availability and performance proactively, straight from the panel — with no separate tool to deploy.

### nodeaD — anti-DDoS with self-healing

Our in-house anti-DDoS system, integrated with monitoring. It detects and blocks attacks proactively, and on failure it triggers self-healing — automatic response and recovery of services before users feel it.

### Connection Manager

A cross-platform SSH and RDP agent integrated with app.nodea.io/app. Manage connections to every server from one place, without scattered configurations on individual workstations.

*AI agents, API v1 and MCP*

## Run the app you built with an AI agent

CLOUD.SSD instances are general-purpose, for typical web apps, dashboards and test environments. An app you built with Claude Code, Codex, OpenCode or another popular harness (the tool that runs an AI agent) is easy to run on it. You order a CLOUD.SSD instance in the panel with your SSH key and full root access, and your agent or CI pipeline deploys the app over SSH. From there the agent manages the server through REST API v1 and the MCP server: it restarts the instance, opens ports in the nodeaD agent firewall (if it runs on the instance), adds SSH keys, DNS records in zones hosted in Nodea DNS, and monitoring. It does so within the scopes of a token you create in the panel.

## Three availability zones as standard

### Instances on a 3-AZ architecture

You run instances across three independent availability zones (3-AZ) in the Tricity. This is an edge most VPS providers don't offer — you design for high availability at the infrastructure level.

### 100 Gbps fiber ring

The three data centers are joined by a private 100 Gbps fiber ring. Replication and traffic failover between zones happen at low latency, within a single metropolitan area.

### Resilient to a zone failure

A single facility failure does not stop your services — you keep replicas and backups in physically separated buildings. A natural foundation for a disaster recovery plan.

### Availability backed by a 99.99% SLA

We guarantee 99.99% service availability over the year, written into an SLA. Every instance is monitored with Zabbix, and alerts are handled by a technical team made up exclusively of Linux administrators — often before you notice a problem.

### Try an instance free for 24 hours

We're confident in the quality of our services, so we let you test them first. Just note in the order that you'd like a trial and we'll spin up your instance free of charge for 24 hours — no strings attached.

## We'll migrate you in for free

Every client with a Linux administration plan is migrated free of charge, with no billing for extra admin hours. In our experience a well-executed migration is an investment that pays off in years of successful cooperation.

## Frequently asked questions

### When should I choose CLOUD.SSD over CLOUD.NVMe?

CLOUD.SSD instances are general purpose with a favourable price-to-performance ratio — a good fit for websites, APIs, databases and production environments with predictable load. Reach for CLOUD.NVMe when you need maximum IOPS and the lowest I/O latency: intensive OLTP databases, in-memory caches or applications with very high request rates.

### How does billing work?

Instances are billed monthly, with no long-term contracts and no cancellation penalties. You pay for the period an instance runs and scale resources in step with your project.

### Does my data stay in Poland?

Yes. All instances run in Polish data centers across three availability zones in the Tricity, with Polish support and contracts — and in compliance with GDPR.

### Which operating systems are available?

Choices include Debian 10, Debian 11, Ubuntu 20.04, CloudLinux 7 and CloudLinux 8. If you need a different distribution or configuration, get in touch.

### Can you administer the server for me?

Yes. We offer full Linux administration in four plans — with Zabbix monitoring, proactive incident response, security audits, DR tests and backup storage. We act on monitoring alerts ourselves, so you don't have to report outages.

### Can I deploy from Claude Code, Codex or CI?

Yes. The instance comes with full root access and the SSH key you chose when ordering, so a coding agent (Claude Code, Codex, OpenCode and other popular harnesses) or a CI pipeline deploys the app over SSH. Through REST API v1 and the MCP server (https://app.nodea.io/mcp, a personal token from the panel) the agent restarts and stops the instance, opens ports in the nodeaD agent firewall if it runs on the instance, and manages SSH keys and records in Nodea DNS zones. You order the instance in the panel. The step-by-step setup is in the [guide to deploying from AI coding agents](https://nodea.io/en/api-docs/ai-coding-agents).
