Docker works properly
Docker requires kernel-level access that KVM provides. docker run, docker-compose, Docker Swarm all work exactly as documented.
KVM VIRTUALISATION · FULL KERNEL ACCESS · NOT OPENVZ
KVM VPS India. True virtualisation, dedicated resources.
Every RupeeCloud VPS uses KVM — hardware virtualisation with a dedicated kernel per instance. Docker, WireGuard, custom kernel modules, and Windows all work without restrictions.

What KVM unlocks for you
WireGuard VPN
WireGuard loads as a kernel module. Set up a VPN server, encrypt traffic between your VPS instances, or route client traffic through your server.
Windows support
KVM can run Windows Server. Add the Windows licence for ₹399/mo and get a fully functional Windows Server 2022 environment with RDP.

You get full root access and a clean OS. We manage hardware, network, and uptime. Everything inside the OS — software, security patches, kernel upgrades, configuration — is your responsibility.
Frequently asked questions
What is KVM virtualisation?
KVM (Kernel-based Virtual Machine) is hardware virtualisation built into the Linux kernel. Each VPS gets its own kernel and full OS isolation — completely separate from other VPS instances on the same node.
Does Docker work on KVM VPS?
Yes. Docker requires real kernel access which KVM provides. On OpenVZ, Docker does not work properly because containers share the host kernel and have restricted access to kernel features.
Can I install a custom kernel?
Custom kernel loading is available on request. Contact support at my.giganodes.host to discuss your requirement.
Is RAM dedicated or burstable?
RAM is allocated and dedicated to your VPS — not shared with other instances. For guaranteed physical RAM with no hypervisor-level sharing, see our VDS plans.
Can I run WireGuard VPN on KVM?
Yes. WireGuard requires loading a kernel module which works on KVM. It does not work on OpenVZ-based VPS.
