Once your VPS is up and running, you can install any software you need. Since our VPSes are unmanaged, installing and managing software is your responsibility (or your developer’s).
Common Installations
-
Node.js – for running JavaScript apps
-
MongoDB – for database-driven applications
-
Apache / Nginx – for serving websites
-
MySQL / PostgreSQL – for relational databases
Example: Installing Node.js on Ubuntu
Example: Installing MongoDB on Ubuntu
(Exact commands may vary depending on OS version. Please refer to official documentation for best results.)
Notes
-
Always update your system before installing new software.
-
For production systems, we recommend having a developer handle setup, security hardening, and ongoing maintenance.
-
If you are not comfortable managing the VPS yourself, check with us if server management services are available.
