Rough estimate: an idle openSUSE server plus typical per-service use. Large databases or heavy builds need more.

How openSUSE Leap releases work
Leap tracks SUSE Linux Enterprise: each minor release is supported for a fixed period, and you move to the next one with zypper. Check openSUSE's lifecycle page for the current end date before deploying something long-lived.

Linux VPS in Paris →Who it's for
What people run on openSUSE VPS servers
What is a openSUSE VPS?
An openSUSE VPS is a virtual machine running openSUSE Leap, a free distribution built from SUSE Linux Enterprise sources, managed over SSH with full root access. At FlashRDP it comes as openSUSE Leap 15. It runs on KVM with 2–8 shared vCPU and 4–32 GB RAM in Phoenix or Paris, starts at $11.99 a month and is online in under 3 minutes. It is unmanaged: you install and update the software yourself.
openSUSE VPS questions
Which openSUSE version can I install?
openSUSE Leap 15 as a minimal image. Reinstall another distribution from the control panel at any time.
How do I connect to my openSUSE VPS?
Run ssh root@your-server-ip with the password from your welcome email. Add your SSH key and turn off password login once you are in. See the connection guide.
Is openSUSE Leap compatible with SUSE Linux Enterprise?
Leap is built from SUSE Linux Enterprise sources, so packages and configuration closely match SLE. It is a good place to develop and test for SLE.
How do I install software and updates on openSUSE?
Use zypper install for packages and zypper patch for updates. YaST gives you a text menu for users, network and firewall settings.
openSUSE or Fedora?
Leap changes slowly and follows SUSE Linux Enterprise; Fedora ships the newest software and upgrades twice a year.
Is my openSUSE VPS managed?
No, it is unmanaged. You handle updates, backups and security inside the OS. We run the hardware, network and DDoS filtering, and publish uptime on the status page.
