Currently seeking advice!

[Consultation]

Hello MCM! My name is Nick. I am a server manager for the server ExoticMC. We are an unreleased factions server and we are wondering how much RAM we need to run our server on. We are also wondering what host we should use and if we should buy a Dedi or VPS or just run the server off of a normal minecraft host. We can currently spend around $20 USD a month. We are also wondering if we should buy one server to run an entire network off of or buy multiple servers. We don't plan on making a network right away but I do want to plan these things in advance. Thank you for your advice/feedback!

Yours truly,
Consultation

I suggest a 4GB VPS Service at OVH Hosting, or just 2-4 GB Service at some shared hosting (etc. Bisect Hosting) It should be enough to run up to 32-40 players with 4GB on Factions ^^

Thanks a ton

EDIT: We are actually running a 8GB VPS at OVH right now. Should we keep this server or go for a cheaper/more expensive one?

Depends on what you need 8GB is great but necessary for start.
