Title: Moving my Python app from shared hosting to a VPS
Post by: OliviaBennet on October 26, 2026, 04:53:53 PM
I’m deploying a Django application that uses PostgreSQL and a couple of background workers. I also want to run everything in Docker so deployments are easier to manage.

I’m looking for 4 vCPUs, 8 GB RAM and at least 80 GB of NVMe storage, with a budget of around $25–30 per month.

Hostpro.com is one option I found while comparing VPS plans. Root access is important to me because I want to configure Docker and the entire application stack myself.

Does this configuration sound reasonable for a small production application, or would you start with fewer resources and scale later?

VPS accounts from hostingsource.com (https://hostingsource.com/vps-hosting-promo/) and scalahosting.com (https://www.scalahosting.com/cloud-vps-hosting.html) are full-featured and low cost.
Their pricing has been incredibly fair, transparent, and worth every penny for their professionalism and kindness.
