Timme Hosting Root ScaleServer CentOS [...], € 25.00/mo. on Cloud

This Root ScaleServer entry is shown with CentOS Stream 9 as the operating system option along Debian 11, Debian 12, Debian 13, Ubuntu 22,Ubuntu 24. The page lists it from 25.00 EUR per month or 0.0372 EUR per hour, with 40 GB NVMe SSD as the shown base storage point in the configurator and no contract term. Unlike the managed model, this version only ships with a minimal Linux system, so the customer is responsible for setup, administration, maintenance, monitoring, and updates. It is therefore the more technical choice for users who want to build and operate their own stack on top of a flexible cloud server while still benefiting from Timme's scalable resource model and German hosting location.

The Root ScaleServer variant is the lighter and more self-directed version of the platform. Only a minimal Linux installation is provided, so setup, maintenance, monitoring, updates, and service operation remain the customer's own responsibility. That makes it more suitable for administrators or developers who want cloud flexibility together with full control over their own software stack. Timme still presents the same flexible scaling model, hourly billing, German data center location, NVMe-based storage approach, and the option to keep disk size fixed while scaling only CPU and RAM so the server can later move back to a smaller tier more easily. The page also explains that initial provisioning on a smaller level preserves more downgrade flexibility later, because disk size cannot be reduced below the already provisioned level. This ScaleServer line is built for projects that need cloud-style elasticity without a migration every time demand changes. CPU and RAM can be scaled up or down through the customer center, and disk can also be expanded when required. Scheduled Scaling can automate capacity changes by time window, which is useful for seasonal peaks, campaigns, or predictable shop traffic. Timme positions the platform around local NVMe storage, a Linux/nginx/MySQL/PHP stack, fast deployment, and transparent pay-as-you-go charging with hourly metering. The infrastructure runs in Germany under DSGVO-oriented data protection standards, uses redundant connectivity, and is backed by green power from hydropower. The site highlights 300000 IOPS storage capability, 1 Gbit/s full duplex network connectivity, app installation for common CMS and shop systems, optional container hosting for Docker-based workloads, and broad PHP version coverage from 7.0 to 8.5. The general terms mention 99.9% average monthly network availability for the data center infrastructure.
