*📜 Plan description

LAX-Global-K01 is the entry level SimpleCloud K Global package and is aimed at users who need a small but responsive virtual server on a premium worldwide network. It offers 1 vCore of processing power, 1 GB of RAM and a 20 GB pure SSD OS disk, which is adequate for a lean Linux distribution hosting light web applications, testing environments, DNS or VPN gateways. The plan includes 1000 GB of monthly data transfer on a 1 Gbps network port, giving ample capacity for personal projects, small business sites or lightweight remote access services while still taking advantage of optimised global routing. A snapshot entitlement is included so you can capture a full image of the VPS before major updates or structural changes, and optional SAS data disk storage can be attached if additional space for media or backups is required. With pricing of 8 USD per month and 80 USD per year on the annual term, this plan is a straightforward way to gain access to the global route platform without committing to larger resources.

All SimpleCloud K Global plans are hosted in Los Angeles on GigsGigsCloud's high performance global route cloud platform, which is optimised using China Mobile and other major carriers to provide stable, low latency access from Asia and worldwide. The underlying infrastructure uses the latest processor technology and KVM virtualization so each cloud server behaves like a flexible dedicated machine with full root access and custom kernel support. Operating systems can be reloaded at any time from one click templates that include popular Linux distributions such as CentOS, Debian and Ubuntu as well as Windows Server 2022, allowing administrators to quickly change stacks or recover from experiments. Pure enterprise SSD storage is used for the OS disk and configured in RAID10 so that read and write performance is markedly faster and more predictable than on legacy spinning disks, while optional SAS data disks are available for customers who need larger capacity for archives and media. Each VPS is connected to the network with up to 10 Gbps of port speed depending on the package and is engineered to take advantage of a premium global routing mix built on carriers like GTT and Cogent together with optimised Asia routes so that traffic to China, Southeast Asia and North America remains efficient. Integrated remote reboot and KVM console access from the client area provide out of band control when firewall or network configuration changes lock you out, and snapshot options make it straightforward to capture complete images of a running system before major changes. Cloud servers are provisioned automatically after PayPal payment and are offered on a self managed basis, which is ideal for experienced administrators and developers who are comfortable taking responsibility for system maintenance, security and backups.

📄 Editorial Review

GigsGigsCloud is a Hong Kong–based hosting brand positioned as an extension of GigsGigs.com and operated under TechAvenue International Ltd. The focus is on VPS, cloud servers and bare metal dedicated servers, with special attention to Asia-Pacific connectivity and optimized routes into mainland China. The brand is aimed at users who need low-latency access to Asian networks, particularly China, rather than classic mass-market shared hosting.
GigsGigsCloud is a service built to provide affordable yet stable and reliable VPS and cloud hosting. The wider TechAvenue group is involved in data center and VoIP services in both Hong Kong (TechAvenue International Ltd) and Malaysia (TechAvenue Sdn Bhd), so GigsGigsCloud sits inside a broader infrastructure and telecoms context rather than as a stand-alone reseller.
On the product side, GigsGigsCloud’s portfolio revolves around:
  • Cloud VPS / Cloud Servers – Offered in several regions, including Hong Kong, Singapore, Japan, Malaysia, the United States (Los Angeles), and the Philippines. Many plans highlight direct China route options (CN2 GIA, China Telecom/Unicom/Mobile, PCCW, etc.) and are marketed as "Premium China KVM VPS" or "Asia VPS" for users needing good performance into China. Virtualization technologies include OpenVZ containers and KVM VPS, and there are both Linux and Windows VPS variants in some locations (for example, Hong Kong Windows cloud VPS).
  • Bare Metal Dedicated Servers – Dedicated servers are available in Hong Kong, Singapore, Los Angeles and the Philippines, including standard bare metal and Anti-DDoS dedicated servers. These are positioned for customers who need full control of hardware and higher, more consistent performance than VPS can offer.
  • Virtual Dedicated Servers (VDS) – A middle ground between VPS and full dedicated servers, with dedicated CPU cores and RAM but on a virtualised platform. VDS plans are offered in Hong Kong, Singapore and the US (LAX), designed for users who want predictable performance without renting an entire physical machine.
  • Anti-DDoS / Premium China Services – Separate lines of Anti-DDoS cloud and dedicated servers and "Premium China" KVM VPS plans emphasize mitigation against DDoS attacks and optimized routing into Chinese networks. These are aimed at businesses whose traffic profile or geography makes them frequent targets or heavily dependent on China-bound performance.

Network and infrastructure are a major part of their positioning. GigsGigsCloud stresses that they build and own their network for enterprise-grade usage, optimizing it for "fastest Asia access with highest throughput and lowest latency." The features overview references connectivity and peering with well-known carriers such as Hong Kong Broadband Network, NTT Communications, TATA, GTT, Cogent, China Telecom, China Unicom, China Mobile and PCCW, which reinforces the Asia-first, China-optimized angle.

Hardware is branded servers only, with thorough load testing before production. Multiple cloud VPS pages mention that cloud servers are powered by Intel and AMD EPYC processors, up to 128 cores, which is more than sufficient for heavy workloads when combined with SSD or SAS storage. Overall, GigsGigsCloud is best viewed as a regional infrastructure and VPS specialist for Asia and China-focused traffic, rather than as a beginner-friendly shared host.

Note: Most product names at GigsgigsCloud have remained unchanged since November 2018 for Dedicated, Virtual Dedicated, and several VPS plans, with the main additions being new Cloud offerings. This continuity may reflect a very stable business and a product lineup that has proven successful over time.
