Hello everyone,
I am a newbie to VPS Hosting and Hosting in general. I have recently purchased a VPS 2 plan from Hostinger which has 2 GB of RAM and 2 CPU cores.
I am currently hosting a NodeJS application on it and using ejs as my templating language for the front-end side. I didn’t install any Panel for managing the hosting, I am just running Nginx as a reverse proxy on Ubuntu 22.04.
My question is: are these resources enough for hosting both the site and the mail server or should I upgrade for a better plan? I want to use CyberPanel to manage the mail server to avoid the complexity of setting up the mail server. The site is not expected to have a lot of traffic, it is a student consulting company’s website. I want to have about 5-10 emails at most.
In your case, I would opt for a common hosting plan from the hostinger itself as you mentioned.
This would already include hosting the website + professional emails with greater authority.
Departing for a VPS, it is only good for specific needs of applications that no longer support running on common hosting or that have a reasonable number of traffic.
That really depends have multiply clients that using vps services at my company with 2GB RAM and 2 CPU with a lot of traffic.
That could easy put 10 websites on it really depend also what they running.
Yeah I know it is very troublesome, but as I know, the only plan that supports running NodeJS applications in Hostinger is the VPS hosting. And Hostinger is better than all other providers in terms of price
