Pay As You Go - Virtual Data Center (GPC)

Our 3rd generation, Pay As You Go Virtual Data Center is part of Cloud Propeller’s General Purpose Compute platform, delivering reliable, enterprise-grade infrastructure for cost-sensitive workloads, while the usage-based model allows clients to scale up or down without paying for unused capacity.



This platform runs on Intel® Xeon® Gold 6246R CPUs, DDR4 ECC memory, and HPE Alletra all-flash NVMe storage, providing strong and consistent performance for the vast majority of production use cases.



Clients are billed using a usage-based model, with resource consumption measured every 5 minutes. While invoices are issued monthly, usage is calculated with high precision, enabling modern hourly-style billing without rounding surprises.



Even in our Pay As You Go model, we design our infrastructure conservatively. We never provision any of our clusters beyond 50% utilization, ensuring ample headroom for scaling and eliminating noisy-neighbor impact.

Choose Billing Cycle

The $50.00 Initial Credit is applied directly to your account balance and used toward Pay As You Go usage. It is required to activate your account and allows us to confirm billing details prior to service provisioning.

Configurable Options
Support Plan SLA (Optional)

We have support options to match your needs. No Service Level Agreement for Self-managed environments, or Business and Mission Critical SLAs with guaranteed response times.

Business and Mission Critical SLAs are priced as a percentage of your Monthly Recurring Charges (MRC) and include a minimum monthly commitment.

Monthly Pre-Paid Support Hours (Optional)

You may commit to a set number of engineering support hours each month without enrolling in a full SLA. This is ideal for Self-managed environments that may occasionally require predictable direct access to Tier-3 engineers.

Pre-paid support hours are a monthly recurring commitment, do not roll over, and are delivered under our Business SLA. You may increase your committed hours at any time, or reduce them prior to the next billing cycle if your needs change.
