What to run on DataDack
Ten products share one region, Noida (ap-south-3), and one rupee bill. This is the map. Prices below are the console rate card at the time the site was built; the pricing page updates when that card changes.
A virtual machine, when you want root
Start here for almost everything that is not a static site. The smallest published size is ₹1,150/mo (₹2.53/hr). Every size includes full KVM root, an OS image and L3/L4 DDoS protection. None of those is an add-on.
A new account starts with ₹1,000 in free credit on signup.
Use a VM for a database you administer yourself, a game server you would rather panel yourself, a Docker host, or any process that needs SSH. Game servers with the Wings panel are the same compute with a management layer on top, priced like the matching VM: managed game servers.
Dedicated machines — physical EPYC and Xeon, unshared cache, IPMI — are the step up when a guest is the wrong tool. Those are quoted, not picked from the VM ladder: dedicated servers.
A private network, when the boxes need to talk
A VPC is an isolated network. The managed NAT gateway is ₹2,357.9/mo flat, with no per-gigabyte processing surcharge. Traffic between subnets in the VPC is ₹0/GB. Put the database on a private subnet and the load balancer or API gateway on the public side.
Virtual Private Cloud · Load balancers · API Gateway
API Gateway publishes routes, authorizers and throttles in Noida. It does not have a public rate card on this site. Ask the console.
A GitHub repository, when you do not want a server
TejasDeploy connects a repository, detects the framework — 37 frameworks across 5 toolchains — and builds in ap-south-3. Every pull request gets its own preview URL. Rollback to an earlier build does not require a rebuild. TLS is issued for the service and for a custom domain.
Use it for Next.js, a static site, an API that already builds from Git. Use a VM when you need a long-running process, a custom system package, or SSH.
A function or a workflow, while the beta is free
Serverless functions are in public beta at ₹0, metered at a 1ms tick, with no credit card required. Each invocation runs in its own microVM. Serverless.
Workflows are n8n-compatible visual graphs, also in public beta at ₹0, with 100+ connectors. Credentials and run history stay in Noida. Workflows. Self-hosting n8n on a VM is the other option, at a flat monthly price with no per-execution fee: that use case.
Alarms
Monitoring raises alarms on VMs, load balancers and disks, and routes firing and recovery notifications to more than one channel. One month of CloudTrail logs is included.
