Shared CPU VPS servers for lower-cost cloud compute

Launch burstable shared CPU instances for your AI and general purpose workloads. Get always-on VPS server capacity without paying dedicated-core prices for usage that only spikes in short bursts.

Host OpenClaw on always-on Virtual Servers for up to 85% less cost and connect it to external LLM APIs or routing layers. When you need self-hosted inference, you can also pair OpenClaw with Fluence GPU Cloud.

Persistent storage

Attach an additional volume during deployment or later. Keep application data, small databases, logs, queues, and datasets available when the virtual server changes.

Public IPv4

Create and assign a public IPv4 address for websites, APIs, development environments, and other services that need direct internet access.
