Ubuntu VPS hosting

Deploy the most popular Linux distribution in minutes. Ubuntu 18.04, 20.04, 22.04, and 24.04 LTS templates ready to go. Full root access, Ceph distributed storage, and a fully redundant network across 6 global data centers.

Ubuntu LTS on ColossusCloud

Ubuntu is one of the most popular Linux distributions in the industry. It leads in terms of package freshness and community support, offering the latest improvements in the Linux ecosystem while maintaining the stability that production servers demand. It is an excellent choice for WordPress hosting, Docker containers, and general-purpose server workloads.

We offer Long Term Support (LTS) releases exclusively, because LTS versions are supported by Canonical for up to five years. This means you don't have to constantly upgrade your operating system, and you can rely on a predictable stream of security patches throughout the lifecycle. If your stack requires RHEL compatibility instead, CentOS, AlmaLinux, and Rocky Linux are also available on ColossusCloud.

  • Ubuntu 18.04 LTS
  • Ubuntu 20.04 LTS
  • Ubuntu 22.04 LTS
  • Ubuntu 24.04 LTS (recommended for new deployments)

Why host Ubuntu in the cloud

The world's most popular Linux distribution, ready to deploy on enterprise infrastructure

Long Term Support releases

Ubuntu LTS versions receive five years of security updates and critical fixes from Canonical. Deploy 24.04 LTS today and maintain a stable, secure server through 2029 without worrying about frequent OS upgrades.

Snap and APT package management

Access thousands of packages through APT and the Snap Store. Install web servers, databases, monitoring tools, and development frameworks with a single command. Dependencies are resolved automatically.

Container-ready

Ubuntu is the most popular base image for Docker containers. Run Docker, Docker Compose, LXD, or Kubernetes natively. Our VPS plans provide the CPU and memory headroom your containerized applications need.

Modern kernel and systemd

Each Ubuntu LTS ships with a modern Linux kernel and systemd for service management. Benefit from the latest kernel security features, improved scheduling, and support for current networking and storage subsystems.

Massive community and documentation

Ubuntu has one of the largest Linux communities. Find answers to nearly any question on Ask Ubuntu, the official documentation, and thousands of tutorials. Broad community support means faster problem solving.

Built for server workloads

Ubuntu Server is optimized for headless operation with no desktop overhead. Run Nginx, Apache, PostgreSQL, MySQL, Node.js, Python, Go, or any production stack efficiently with all resources dedicated to your applications.

Frequently asked questions

ColossusCloud offers Ubuntu 18.04 LTS, 20.04 LTS, 22.04 LTS, and 24.04 LTS. All are Long Term Support releases backed by five years of security updates from Canonical. We recommend 24.04 LTS for new deployments.

LTS releases receive security patches and critical updates for five years, compared to nine months for standard releases. This means fewer OS upgrades, better stability, and a predictable maintenance schedule for production workloads.

Yes. Ubuntu is one of the best-supported platforms for containers. Install Docker, Docker Compose, Kubernetes, or any container orchestration tool directly. Our VPS plans include full root access and enough resources for container workloads.

Yes. Ubuntu supports in-place LTS upgrades using the do-release-upgrade command. However, we recommend deploying a fresh Ubuntu 24.04 VPS and migrating your data, because clean installations tend to be more stable. You can run both servers side by side during the transition.

Yes. Ubuntu has excellent support for modern development stacks. Node.js, Python, Go, Ruby, and Rust all install easily through APT or Snap. Ubuntu is also one of the best-supported platforms for Docker and Kubernetes, making it ideal for containerized deployments.

Yes. cPanel officially supports Ubuntu LTS releases and our automated installation handles the entire setup during deployment. Select the cPanel option when creating your VPS and it will be ready within an hour with Apache, email, databases, and SSL certificate management configured.

We've been using ColossusCloud for our Ubuntu servers for over a year now and the experience has been outstanding. The performance is excellent, uptime is rock solid, and the few times we needed support, the response was fast and helpful. Highly recommended for anyone looking for reliable Linux VPS hosting.
