Introduction

Laravel VPS cuts server provisioning from minutes to seconds. One click gets you a fully configured server optimized for modern applications. All Laravel VPS servers are Ubuntu powered servers that you receive full access to, and are offered through our infrastructure partnership with DigitalOcean. But Laravel VPS offers more than just speed. It’s one of the most affordable cloud provider options in Forge, making it easier to experiment with new projects or scale existing ones. You’ll also get simplified billing through Forge instead of managing separate charges from multiple providers.

Benefits of Laravel VPS

Using Laravel VPS servers offers several benefits:
  • No need to link Forge to external server providers like AWS.
  • Provision servers in seconds. External server providers can take over 10 minutes.
  • Utilize Laravel VPS integrated terminal, and instantly gain SSH access to your Laravel VPS servers directly from Forge.
  • Consolidate billing on Laravel Forge, instead of managing billing via an external server provider and Forge.

Forge Terminal

When using Laravel VPS, you can gain SSH access to the server with a fully-functional terminal directly from Forge. To get started, navigate to any of your servers or sites and click the context menu for the server or site, usually on the right side of the page and represented by three dots. Then, click “Launch terminal”. Alternatively, you may launch the terminal from any server or site page using the Control+` keyboard shortcut.
