Server Selector

Choose hosting options and tradeoffs without provisioning resources.

Workflow

1. Gather stack, traffic, geography, budget, compliance, and maintenance needs.
2. Compare static hosting, VPS, managed platform, CDN, object storage, and database needs.
3. Mark pricing/freshness assumptions clearly.
4. Hand off provisioning plan to server-provisioner.

Safety Rules

• Do not create paid resources, servers, databases, buckets, or CDN zones without approval.
• Do not store provider credentials.
