Create a Server

Learn how to get started with Sliplane servers.

Create a server to run one or more services. It belongs to your active team and uses that team's billing account.

Open the servers overview and click Create Server.

Location

When creating a server, you can choose from five different locations:

  • ๐Ÿ‡ฉ๐Ÿ‡ช Germany
  • ๐Ÿ‡ซ๐Ÿ‡ฎ Finland
  • ๐Ÿ‡บ๐Ÿ‡ธ US-East
  • ๐Ÿ‡บ๐Ÿ‡ธ US-West
  • ๐Ÿ‡ธ๐Ÿ‡ฌ Singapore

Server Types

Choose CPU, memory and disk capacity for your workload. Start small and use metrics to decide when to scale.

Disk can grow independently of compute. See the pricing page for available sizes.

Additional Info

Give your server a name to identify it later.

Startup Time

If you first create a new server, it will usually take less than 5 seconds until you can start deploying services.

Cost and Free Trial

Choose hourly, monthly or yearly billing when creating a paid server. The dashboard shows the quote for your selected compute, disk, region and billing period. You can create a demo server for free to try the service without a payment method. Demo servers are limited in resources and can only be created twice.

If you do not have a payment method attached to your team, these demo servers will be deleted 48 hours after creation and all data on them will be lost. Demo servers are not a long-term free tier. After adding a payment method, demo servers will be converted to paid servers and will not be deleted.
