- free tier: USD 8.72 per month is the stated floor for a cloud server with the vendor's 30 percent code, printed by the review site as a floor of USD 8.72 for a cloud server; the same offer prices bare metal from USD 134 a month across 59 data centres. The vendor page states elastic compute in 20 or more countries, hourly or monthly billing, deployment through a web interface, an API and Terraform, a free virtual firewall, and three bandwidth modes: data transfer, flat-rate capped bandwidth, and aggregated burstable at the 95th percentile. Traffic within a virtual private cloud is free. No plan table and no shape are printed on either page read. | unit: unlimited | metered on: wall-clock | read on: 2026-10-23 | source: [1] | note: none
- per-object cap: not applicable | source: [1]
- retention: not applicable | source: [1]
- egress: three modes: data transfer, flat-rate capped bandwidth with unlimited data, and aggregated burstable at the 95th percentile; intra-VPC traffic free | metered: no | free allowance: none stated; intra-VPC transfer is free | source: [1]
- identity: email | detail: not stated
- interface: rest, cli
- limits:
  - per-ip-shaping (binding): Bandwidth is bought in one of three modes and the page prints no allowance for any of them, so the mode is the wall: a flat-rate row is capped at its port, a data-transfer row at its bytes, and the 95th-percentile row at an aggregate commitment. The USD 8.72 floor has no published shape. [1]
- limits note: Bandwidth is bought in one of three modes and the page prints no allowance for any of them, so the mode is the wall: a flat-rate row is capped at its port, a data-transfer row at its bytes, and the 95th-percentile row at an aggregate commitment. The USD 8.72 floor has no published shape.
- binding note: the same as limits note
- interface detail: inferred from the tooling the provider documents; not probed
- tooling: web console, API and Terraform provider documented on the vendor page; this is the only provider with a Terraform path stated
- composes with: A Terraform and API path with hourly billing across 20 or more countries is the shape a scripted fleet needs, and the 95th-percentile bandwidth mode is the only one priced on aggregate rather than per machine
- reliability: no reliability event recorded
- notes: Source: zhujiceping offer listing, then the vendor page. Neither page prints a plan row, so the record is reported and the shape is empty rather than guessed. Rendering and provenance: currency written as USD.
