What is KVM virtualization in Near VPS?

KVM (Kernel-based Virtual Machine) is a full virtualization solution that allows Near VPS to provide true hardware isolation. Unlike other virtualization methods, KVM gives each Linux VPS its own dedicated kernel and resources (CPU, RAM, and NVMe), ensuring near-native performance for your applications.

Can I install a custom ISO on my KVM VPS?

Yes! Near VPS KVM instances support custom ISO mounting directly through our infrastructure console. You can upload and install any operating system that supports KVM virtualization, giving you total control over your server environment.

Is root access included with Linux KVM VPS?

Absolutely. Every Linux KVM VPS plan from Near VPS comes with full root (SSH) access. This gives you complete administrative control to install any software, configure custom kernels, or optimize your server stack as needed.

How does scaling work for my Near VPS KVM instance?

Scaling with Near VPS is designed to be seamless. You can upgrade your vCPU, RAM, and high-speed NVMe storage directly through our dashboard as your workload grows. Most resource upgrades require only a simple reboot to apply the new allocations to your instance.

Which Linux distributions are available for instant deployment?

We offer a wide range of automated templates for instant deployment, including AlmaLinux (8/9/10), Rocky Linux (9/10), Ubuntu (22.04/24.04), Debian (11/12/13), and CentOS. You can also use our custom ISO feature for any other distribution.

Does Near VPS provide DDoS protection for KVM servers?

Yes, all Linux KVM VPS plans include enterprise-grade DDoS protection at no extra cost. Our global network uses advanced mitigation hardware to filter out malicious traffic before it reaches your server, ensuring maximum uptime.

What kind of storage do Near VPS KVM servers use?

We exclusively use enterprise-grade NVMe SSD storage across our global data centers. NVMe offers significantly higher I/O performance compared to traditional SSDs or HDDs, making it ideal for database-heavy applications and high-traffic websites.

Can I upgrade my VPS without losing data?

Yes. CPU, RAM and storage upgrades are applied to your existing server from the client area, so your files, applications and IP address stay in place. Most upgrades need a short reboot. VPS plans are unmanaged, so take your own backup before any change.

How long does VPS setup take?

Automated provisioning usually prepares a VPS within minutes of the order being paid. Orders that need a manual check, such as some payment methods or custom builds, can take longer. Your IP address and login details arrive by email and in the client area.

Do you offer a refund on VPS plans?

No. VPS plans (Linux and Windows) are not refundable because the server is provisioned for you straight away. Eligible shared hosting packages have a 7-day money-back guarantee on the first payment instead. Cancel any time from the client area to stop the next renewal.

Quick answer

What is a KVM VPS?

A KVM VPS is a virtual private server created with Kernel-based Virtual Machine, the hypervisor built into Linux. Each server gets its own reserved vCPU, RAM and NVMe storage and runs its own kernel, so you get full root access and performance that other customers on the host cannot take from you.

How to connect to your server over SSH in 3 steps

1Find the server IP address and root password in your welcome email or in the client area.
2Open a terminal (or PuTTY on Windows) and run: ssh root@your-server-ip
3Accept the host key, sign in, then change the password and add your SSH key before going live.
