What it costs
Cloud Compute instances start at $5/month for 1 vCPU / 1 GB RAM / 25 GB SSD.
Billed by Vultr directly to your own account — DotDeployer's fee is separate and flat. Source: Vultr's pricing page .
Runs PostgreSQL or SQL Server on the same server — see Databases — and DotDeployer itself is $12–$39/month, separate from what Vultr costs.
Frequently asked questions
Does Vultr bill DotDeployer or me?
You. The instance is created in your own Vultr account and billed to you directly.
What can the API key do?
Only what DotDeployer needs to provision and manage instances. It's encrypted at rest, and you can revoke it from Vultr's dashboard at any time.
Which Vultr product does DotDeployer use?
Cloud Compute (the general-purpose vc2 line) — not Bare Metal or the GPU/Kubernetes products, which are outside what a single ASP.NET Core site needs.
