Enter your workload

CPU Cores Most backend services perform reliably with 2–4 vCPUs.

RAM (GB) Memory is often the limiting factor for dashboards and workers.

Workload type (optional) Used to refine the recommendation.

How this calculator works

InfraPilot uses a transparent sizing model based on CPU and RAM thresholds. Each tier is designed to balance performance, cost, and real‑world developer workloads.

B

Basic

1–2 cores • 1–4 GB RAM — Ideal for static sites and small apps.

S

Standard

2–4 cores • 4–8 GB RAM — Best for APIs and dashboards.

A

Advanced

4–8 cores • 8–16 GB RAM — For medium‑traffic apps and workers.

H

High‑Performance

8+ cores • 16+ GB RAM — For heavy workloads and scaling apps.

These tiers give you a reliable starting point and help you avoid overpaying for unnecessary resources.
