KVM Virtualisation · Full Root Access · Run Docker Freely · From ₹399/mo

Container-Ready Cloud Hosting in India

Hoststack Linux VPS plans run on KVM virtualisation with a full independent kernel per VM — so Docker, Podman, and container workloads run exactly as they would on bare metal. No nested-container restrictions.

See Linux VPS Plans

Why KVM Matters for Containers

Not every "VPS" can run Docker properly. Container-in-container restrictions on OpenVZ or LXC-based hosts are a common surprise — Hoststack avoids that entirely.

🐳

Run Docker Without Restrictions

KVM gives your VPS its own independent kernel, so Docker, Docker Compose, and container networking work exactly like they would on a dedicated server.

🔐

Full Root Access

SSH root access from the first login — install any container runtime, configure any network bridge, load any kernel module you need.

Dedicated CPU via KVM

AMD Ryzen 5 5500 and Intel Xeon E5-2673 v4 CPUs, with KVM enforcing real resource isolation between virtual machines on the same host.

💽

NVMe SSD for Image Layers

Container image pulls, layer caching, and volume I/O all benefit from NVMe-backed storage instead of slower spinning or SATA SSD disks.

🛡️

DDoS Protection Included

Exposed container services — an API, a webhook receiver, a small app — are covered by the same network-edge DDoS mitigation as every other Hoststack plan.

Mumbai & Delhi Data Centers

Low latency for Indian users and Indian data residency, with Singapore and Germany available if you need a wider footprint.

KVM vs Container-Based "VPS" Hosts

A meaningful number of budget VPS providers actually sell OpenVZ or LXC containers and market them as "VPS." These share a single host kernel across all customers on that node — which means you often can't run Docker inside them without workarounds, can't load custom kernel modules, and can hit odd resource-accounting bugs.

Hoststack's Linux VPS plans start at ₹399/mo and use KVM (Kernel-based Virtual Machine) virtualisation exclusively. Each VPS gets its own full virtual machine with its own kernel — the same technology used by every major cloud provider — so Docker, Podman, Kubernetes single-node setups (k3s), and any container tooling work without special configuration or nested-virtualization hacks.

This matters in practice for developers deploying containerised apps, CI/CD runners that spin up build containers, or small teams running a handful of microservices behind a reverse proxy on one VPS. You get root access from the start, so there's no ticket-and-wait process to enable container support — it works the moment your VPS is provisioned.

If your container workload grows into something that needs guaranteed, non-shared compute at a larger scale, Hoststack's dedicated servers give you an entire physical machine to run as many containers as the hardware allows.

FAQ

Container hosting questions

Yes, without restriction. Because Hoststack VPS plans use KVM virtualisation, each VM has its own kernel, so Docker and Docker Compose install and run exactly as they would on bare metal.
KVM gives each VPS a fully independent kernel and hardware-level isolation. OpenVZ/LXC-based "VPS" hosts share one kernel across all customers on the node, which often blocks or complicates running containers, custom kernel modules, and certain networking setups.
No. Full root access and a real kernel are available from the moment your VPS is provisioned — you can install Docker or any container runtime immediately via SSH.
Lightweight single-node Kubernetes distributions like k3s run fine on a Linux VPS with adequate RAM. For a multi-node cluster, you'd typically provision several VPS instances or move to dedicated servers.
It depends on your workload, but the Spark X1 plan from ₹399/mo is a reasonable starting point for a small number of lightweight containers such as a reverse proxy, a small API, and a database.
