Title: Running multiple Docker containers on a VPS
Post by: OliviaBennet on October 31, 2026, 04:26:43 PM

I'm moving a small development environment from shared hosting to a VPS. I want to run several Docker containers: a web application, a database, Redis, and a reverse proxy.

I'm looking at configurations around 4 vCPU, 8 GB RAM, and 120 GB NVMe. My budget is approximately $25–30 per month.

I've noticed HostPro.com while comparing available VPS plans. Does 8 GB RAM sound comfortable for this setup, or would it be better to start with 16 GB? I'm not expecting heavy traffic, but I'd like to avoid running out of memory when rebuilding containers or performing updates.
