LXC Containers from $4/mo — Lightweight Linux Hosting

What is an LXC Container?

An LXC (Linux Container) is an isolated Linux server that shares the host kernel. Unlike a traditional VPS that emulates complete hardware, an LXC container boots in seconds, uses less memory, and delivers native performance — ideal for web applications, development servers, and microservices.

LXC vs VPS: Which Should You Choose?

Feature	LXC Container	VPS (KVM)
Starting price	$4/mo	$12/mo
Boot time	~2 seconds	~30 seconds
Performance	Native (no overhead)	Near-native
Operating systems	Linux only	Linux + Windows
Isolation	Kernel-level	Full virtualization
Best for	Web apps, dev, databases	Windows, max isolation

Simple rule: If you only need Linux, choose LXC and save money. If you need Windows or maximum isolation, choose VPS.
