I reached out to Hostinger support after losing access to my self-hosted n8n instance, and I couldn’t be more impressed. Kodee and Mohammad from the support team were incredibly patient and thorough.
Many thanks to Carla for helping me with this N8N upgrade on my Hostinger VPS. Professional and knowledgeable, thank you again Carla.
Hostinger VPS is absolutely outstanding. It just always works. It is always fast and stable. Never down, never crashes.
The company is doing well, I am very happy with the specific services I use through them. Not as expensive as some places with really great VPS set ups and price plans.
Rocky Linux VPS FAQs
What is Rocky Linux hosting?
Rocky Linux hosting means using this operating system not on your own virtual machine, but renting a server from a web host for that.
Doing so comes with several benefits: first, you will get full root access to modify server settings and install any programs you need. Second, you will get almost unlimited scalability, as you can update your resources anytime your project grows. Third, you will get better performance as web hosts can usually offer the newest technology.
In addition to these benefits, Hostinger adds free automatic weekly backups, the Kodee AI assistant, a malware scanner, and more.
How to install Rocky Linux on a VPS?
First, purchase a VPS hosting plan. We recommend starting with KVM 1 – for A$ 9.99/month (with a two-year deal), you will get one core processor, 4 GB of RAM, 50 GB of NVMe SSD disk space, and 4 TB of bandwidth. It’s a solid start, and you can update your plan anytime with just a few clicks.
After securing your plan, you will begin the onboarding process. There, simply choose Rocky Linux as your operating system, and it will be pre-installed on your server.
How are Rocky Linux and CentOS different?
The main difference is that CentOS Linux was discontinued and replaced by CentOS Stream, which shifted away from providing a stable release. As a result, Rocky Linux emerged as a reliable, community-driven alternative that many see as the unofficial successor to CentOS. For more details on its strengths and weaknesses, explore our in-depth Rocky Linux overview.
Can I migrate from CentOS to Rocky Linux on my VPS?
Yes, you can change your operating system anytime. Be sure to download your server backup before changing its OS, as doing this will delete all your files.
Once you have a backup, navigate to the OS & Panel section on your VPS control panel and select Rocky Linux.
For more detailed instructions, follow our step-by-step guide on how to change your VPS operating system.
