The free instance survives at most 24 hours and must be renewed by hand from the control panel each day. |
| Binding | none the price binds: there is no shape at this vendor under USD 5 a month |
| Identity | card (placeholder) unverified: the product and price pages were read, the signup path was not. The vendor is Japanese-language only and the order form is on a separate domain (secure.xserver.ne.jp), so a card and probably a Japanese phone are involved; neither is documented here |
| Egress | no traffic quota was read on the product page free allowance: unstated |
| Retention | monthly; the server persists while paid |
| Interface | unknown inferred from the tooling the provider documents; not probed |
| Tooling | not stated |
| Composes with | Nothing chains, because no new account can be opened: the value of the record is that a Japanese reader who saw ' VPS' in 2025 arrives at a closed door in 2026. |
| Reliability | no reliability event recorded |
| Notes | The lead was worth closing: XServer is one of the largest Japanese hosts and its floor is above the line. No under-USD-5 shape exists, so nothing here can qualify whatever the identity terms are. |
| Evidence note | documented price and shape from the vendor's product page today; identity explicitly unverified |

| Free tier | [translated] 'A completely free VPS service. There is no initial cost and no monthly payment, so you can use a domestic VPS casually.' The plan table lists a 2 GB and a 4 GB free VPS at 0 yen per month. unit unlimited; metered on unstated |
|---|---|
| Price | JPY 0 per month on the free plan; paid plans from JPY 792 per month |
| Limits |
|
| Binding | write-gated A control-panel action every day stands between a user and the server surviving. That is a manual act, not a byte count, so it binds before any volume does. It is also moot today: the signup button for the free plans reads 'not accepting applications'. |
| Identity | card [translated] 'A credit card must be registered to use this service.' |
| Egress | [translated] 0 yen per month for the 2 GB and 4 GB plans. No traffic allowance is stated on the page. The contract-renewal row says 'manual renewal (every 1 day)' for the free plans against 'automatic renewal' for the paid ones.; ingress: tcp+udp free allowance: none published |
| Interface | ssh, cli, rest [translated] 50+ OS and application images install automatically when the order completes; the panel restarts and reinstalls the guest. |
| Tooling | wg-quick inside the guest; SSH; the panel installs an OS or app image at order time |
| Composes with | If it reopens: a free Japanese root guest is the endpoint for everything else in this topic, and the daily renewal is the one job it needs. |
| Reliability | Daily manual renewal with deletion on a missed day; the page's own footnote says an automatic detection system may throttle guests that load the host excessively. |
| Notes | Read carefully because it looked like the answer: a Japanese 0-yen VPS with a root guest would pass the ingress test outright. Two facts kill it. The signup is closed ('not accepting applications'). And the renewal row means the server is deleted unless a human clicks a renewal every day, which no unattended workload survives. Country: Japan. The free plan carries 50 GB of disk standard with a 500 GB option per the page footnotes. |
| Evidence note | documented The 0 yen price, the card requirement, the daily manual renewal and the closed signup are all on the vendor page read on 2026-10-23. What no page establishes is whether a free guest gets a public IPv4; a probe would. Applications may reopen, which would make this the strongest Japanese free host. |
