Introducing LioranDB Cloud Dedicated Instances: 2 vCPU, 4 GiB RAM & 150 GB Storage for Just ₹8/Hour

Today, I am excited to introduce LioranDB Cloud Dedicated Instances, a managed database hosting solution built for developers, startups, SaaS applications, and backend services.

At Lioran Developer Solutions, we have been working on building our own developer infrastructure, starting with LioranDB, our NoSQL document database developed in Rust.

And now, with LioranDB Cloud Service (LCS), developers can deploy their own dedicated database instances without having to manage the underlying infrastructure.

Our dedicated plan starts at just ₹8 per hour! 🇮🇳

What Do You Get for ₹8/Hour?

We wanted to provide developers with dedicated database resources, predictable pricing, and managed infrastructure.

Here is what our dedicated database instance includes:

Resource Dedicated Instance
Pricing ₹8/hour
CPU 2 vCPU cores
Memory 4 GiB RAM
Storage 150 GB
Internal nodes 4
Partitions 8
Backups Daily
Maximum retained backups 7
Backup retention 7 days
Database engine LioranDB v2
Infrastructure Managed by LioranDB Cloud

All of this is available through our managed database cloud platform.

No need to manually configure servers, install database binaries, or handle routine database infrastructure management.

You can focus on building your application while LioranDB Cloud manages the database environment.

Dedicated CPU and Memory Resources

Unlike shared database hosting, where multiple customers compete for the same resources, our dedicated plan provides an allocated environment with:

2 vCPU cores and 4 GiB RAM.

This configuration is designed for developers and startups that need more resources for their backend applications.

Whether you are developing a SaaS product, CRM, dashboard, internal application, or API backend, having dedicated resources can help deliver more predictable performance.

Of course, actual throughput depends on your workload, document sizes, indexing, query complexity, and concurrency.

150 GB of Storage

Storage is one of the most important considerations when deploying a database.

With LioranDB Cloud Dedicated Instances, we are offering 150 GB of storage.

This gives developers room to store application documents, user records, business data, and other structured information.

As your application grows, database storage becomes increasingly important.

Our goal is to make storage capacity and database management straightforward for developers.

4 Internal Nodes and 8 Partitions

One of the interesting parts of our dedicated database architecture is how we organize the database internally.

Our dedicated configuration includes:

  • 4 internal nodes
  • 8 partitions

This architecture is designed to support partitioned data management and distribute database workloads across internal components.

Rather than treating the database as one large, monolithic processing unit, we are developing LioranDB around a partition-aware architecture.

Our long-term goal is to improve concurrency, resource utilization, and scalability as workloads grow.

These internal nodes and partitions are part of the database architecture and should not be confused with four independent physical servers or an automatic high-availability guarantee.

Daily Backups With 7-Day Retention

A database is not just about storing documents or achieving high benchmark numbers.

Protecting application data is equally important.

That's why our dedicated instances include daily backups.

Our backup policy includes:

  • One scheduled backup per day.
  • A maximum of 7 retained backups.
  • A retention period of 7 days.

This gives developers access to recent recovery points if they need to restore data from an earlier backup.

Backup retention is an important part of our managed hosting offering, and we will continue improving our backup and recovery infrastructure.

Simple, Hourly Pricing

We wanted to make pricing easy to understand.

Our dedicated database instance costs ₹8 per hour.

Here is what that looks like over different usage periods:

Usage duration Estimated cost
1 hour ₹8
24 hours ₹192
7 days ₹1,344
30 days ₹5,760
31 days ₹5,952

These estimates assume continuous hourly billing and exclude any applicable taxes or additional charges.

With hourly pricing, developers can better understand the cost of running their database infrastructure.

Who Is This Plan For?

We are building LioranDB Cloud Dedicated Instances for developers and teams that want managed database hosting without handling the underlying server infrastructure.

Some of the applications we are targeting include:

SaaS applications: Store customer information, application configurations, subscriptions, and other business data.

CRM platforms: Manage customer records, contacts, activities, and application documents.

Backend APIs: Power Node.js, TypeScript, and other backend applications with a document database.

AI applications: Store user profiles, conversation metadata, configurations, and application records.

Startup products: Give small engineering teams a dedicated database environment without requiring them to operate their own database servers.

Building India's Developer Infrastructure 🇮🇳

LioranDB Cloud is part of our larger mission at Lioran Developer Solutions.

We want to build developer infrastructure from India, including databases, object storage, authentication systems, and other backend services.

Our vision is to reduce dependency on foreign developer infrastructure while giving developers more choices for building and deploying their applications.

We know that building reliable database infrastructure takes time.

Performance, durability, security, backups, recovery, and long-term stability are all critical.

And we are continuously working to improve each of these areas.

Try LioranDB Cloud

If you are a backend developer, startup founder, or engineering team looking for a managed NoSQL document database, I would really appreciate it if you explored LioranDB Cloud.

We are still growing, improving our infrastructure, and gathering feedback from developers.

Your feedback helps us understand what needs to be improved and what matters most in real-world applications.
