Use cases
Why labs choose
Cloudzy's Scientific Linux.
Long-tail research pipelines
If your lab has a 10-year-old pipeline pinned to SL 6 or 7, reproducing it on a fresh distro is rarely worth the cost. Spin up SL, snapshot the result, move on.
Compute nodes for data analysis
MPI, batch schedulers, Pandas, NumPy, ROOT, all run cleanly on the EPYC + NVMe base. Hourly billing means a 32 GB node only costs you while the job is running.
Reproducible build environment
Pin a Scientific Linux VPS as the canonical build host for a paper or thesis. Snapshot the exact state, share the snapshot hash with collaborators.
Teaching computational science
Spin up an instance per student for a course module, hand out SSH keys, tear down at end of term. Same toolchain across the whole class.
Migration staging to AlmaLinux
Use a Scientific Linux VPS as the source-side staging box while you port your pipeline to AlmaLinux 8 or 9. Side-by-side validation on the same network.

FAQ. Scientific Linux VPS
Common questions, straight answers.
What is a Scientific Linux VPS?
Scientific Linux is a Red Hat Enterprise Linux rebuild originally maintained by Fermilab and CERN for research-lab workloads. A Scientific Linux VPS gives you that environment on Cloudzy's cloud. RHEL-compatible packaging, the lab toolchain you already know, full root, and a dedicated IPv4.
Is Scientific Linux still maintained?
Active development of new Scientific Linux releases ended after 7.x. Fermilab now points users to AlmaLinux as the upstream replacement. We still offer Scientific Linux 7 images for labs running long-tail experiments and legacy pipelines, and recommend AlmaLinux 8/9 for new deployments.
Why pick Scientific Linux over RHEL or AlmaLinux?
Pick it when you have an existing pipeline, beam-line software, accelerator control code, ROOT/Geant builds, lab kickstarts, that was developed against Scientific Linux specifically. For brand-new builds, AlmaLinux or Rocky Linux is usually the better current target.
Which package manager does it use?
yum on Scientific Linux 6 / 7. RHEL-compatible repositories work, and the EPEL repo is supported. Most lab software stacks (HEP toolchains, ROOT, Geant4, MPI distributions) have well-known install paths on this base.
How fast is provisioning?
Once payment clears, your Scientific Linux VPS is live in 60 seconds. You'll receive an email with the IP, root password, and SSH connection string.
Can I upgrade my plan later?
Yes. RAM, vCPU, and storage all resize live from the panel. Most upgrades complete in under 60 seconds with no downtime, since we use KVM with online resource hotplug.
Do I get a dedicated IP?
Yes, every Scientific Linux VPS comes with a dedicated static IPv4 plus IPv6. No shared NAT, no reputation issues from neighbors. Floating IPs are available at $2.50/month if you need failover.
Can I run heavy compute jobs?
Yes, the AMD EPYC cores and 40 Gbps networking handle data-analysis workloads cleanly. For very large parallel jobs you can scale to the 32 GB or 64 GB tier, or if you need GPUs for Monte Carlo or ML, look at our Premium GPU plans on the pricing page.
Is there a money-back guarantee?
Yes, 14 days from purchase, no questions asked, full refund. Apply from the panel or email [email protected].
