NVMe VPS

​NVMe VPS

​A significant contribution to the performance of your website is done by the storage type used on it. If you are looking for high-performance drives that can provide your website with the highest data transmission rate for storage intensive projects, NVMe VPS should be what you should be looking for. NVMe is the ultimate storage option that we offer, so let’s see why it can be so attractive. 

Affordable NVMe SSD VPS Hosting Plans

Although NVMe is by definition a significantly more advanced storage type, our NVMe SSD VPS plans are pretty affordable and don’t cost too much compared to traditional SSD VPS.

You can get our entry-level NVMe VPS for less than $6 a month, featuring 2 Epyc cores, 1 GB RAM, and 10 GB NVMe storage. This will be enough to launch a small storage-intensive project, and if it will grow in size over time, you’ll just have to contact us and request to rescale your capacities. 

Advantages of NVMe VPS Hosting with HostZealot

Besides the advantages that are associated with NVMe storage drives as such, hosting with HostZealot offers a great deal of other more general advantages. In particular:

• KVM virtualization: Virtualization is the technology upon which VPS servers are built. What kind of virtualization is used on your VPS determines in many ways its quality. KVM virtualization is one of the best virtualization solutions that you can possibly find, allowing you to create virtual machines that work smoothly, stably, and reliably, providing you with full control over your resources and root access.
• Free IPv6 for each VPS: Take advantage of the newer promising IP standard, with free IPv6 for each VPS by HostZealot.
• Numerous locations: With 17 locations on three continents, you’ll be easily able to pick a plan to target your audience at almost any spot of the globe.
• Uptime: We do our best to make sure that your servers are up at least 99.99% of the time. 
• Support: You can have peace of mind about the operation of your server, since we’ll back you up and help solve technical issues quickly and at any time.

Comparing NVMe SSD and Traditional SSD: Key Differences

NVMe drives are a type of SSD drive which is however built upon a more advanced interface, which allows for much faster data processing and the eventual speed of the storage device.

Besides that, there are numerous further differences that result in NVMe’s better performance in any aspect. Let’s have a look at them.

Interface and protocol

Traditional SSD drives were built on interfaces and protocols that were borrowed from earlier HDD drives model and were not adapted for the speed potential of SSD drives. NVMe drives are exactly the invention that was intended to solve this issue, with high speed PCIe (Peripheral Component Interconnect Express) interface and NVMe (Non-Volatile Memory Express) protocol.

Bandwidth

While traditional SSD bandwidth was limited to the maximum bandwidth of the SATA III interface, which is 6 Gbps, NVMe offers significantly higher bandwidth, with potential speeds up to 32 Gbps (PCIe 3.0 x4) or even higher with newer PCIe versions.

Latency

NVMe provides much lower latency due to the efficient NVMe protocol and the direct connection to the CPU via PCIe.

IOPS

NVMe has a times higher IOPS rate, with common NVMe reaching from 300,000 to 500,000 IOPS and high-end NVMe reaching up to 300,000 to 500,000 IOPS. For comparison, a common SATA SSD reaches only 70,000 to 100,000 IOPS with high-end reaching up to 150,000 IOPS.

Architecture

NVMe is designed to take advantage of multiple CPU cores and  support multiple queues (up to 64,000) with thousands of commands per queue, enabling better multitasking and parallel processing, with SATA SSD limited to a single command queue with 32 commands per queue.

Form Factor

Typically comes in M.2 and U.2 form factors. M.2 NVMe SSDs are small and can be easily integrated into thin and light devices like ultrabooks.

Power Consumption

NVMe drives are generally more power-efficient during high-performance tasks due to better optimization, although they may consume more power during idle states compared to SATA SSDs.

Enhance Your Website Speed with NVMe VPS

NVMe drives are the future of storage devices and are already widely used in a variety of scenarios where high storage performance is a priority. If you are going to focus on high performance tasks and explore more sophisticated cutting-edge solutions, then a NVMe VPS will be a truly reasonable investment.
