Frequently Asked Questions
Here are some most commonly asked questions
-
How long does it take to deploy a service on Elestio?
Most services are fully deployed and accessible in just a few minutes. This includes VM provisioning, software installation, SSL setup, firewall configuration, and monitoring activation. Some larger applications with extensive initial data imports may take slightly longer.
-
Can I migrate my existing self-hosted services to Elestio?
Yes. You can deploy a fresh instance on Elestio and import your data using standard migration tools for your chosen software. For database services, Elestio supports standard dump/restore workflows. Our support team can assist with complex migrations on Production support plans.
-
What happens if my service goes down?
Elestio monitors all services 24/7 with automated health checks. If an issue is detected, the monitoring system sends immediate alerts and, where possible, attempts automatic recovery. For persistent issues, the support team is notified and responds according to your support plan SLA.
-
Can I access my server via SSH?
Yes. Every Elestio service runs on a dedicated virtual machine that you have full root SSH access to. You can connect directly to your server for custom configurations, debugging, or any advanced administration tasks.
-
Is there a commitment or minimum contract period?
No. Elestio billing is hourly with no commitment. You can deploy a service, use it for a few hours, and delete it. You only pay for the time your service is running. There are no setup fees, cancellation fees, or hidden charges.
-
How does Elestio handle data privacy and GDPR compliance?
Elestio stores account data in the EU, protected by strict European privacy laws. Your application data is hosted in the region you choose. Automated backups are stored on the same continent as your service but in a different datacenter. You retain full ownership and control of your data at all times.
-
Can I connect multiple services together?
Yes. Every Elestio project includes an encrypted private network (powered by Nebula) that securely connects all services in that project. Services can communicate using private IPv4 addresses across different cloud providers and regions with near line-speed throughput.
-
What cloud providers does Elestio support?
Elestio partners with DigitalOcean, Amazon Lightsail, Linode, Vultr, Scaleway, Hetzner, TensorDock, Netcup, and Azure. You can also bring your own VM from any provider including AWS, Azure, or on-premise infrastructure using the BYOVM feature.
