Frequently Asked Questions — Astro on AIC Cloud

Should I use Astro static or SSR mode?

Static is best for marketing sites, blogs, and documentation — fastest possible performance, near-zero RAM, can serve millions of requests on a ₹99 VPS via Nginx. SSR is needed for dynamic content (user dashboards, real-time data, personalized content). Most Astro sites should be static.

Which AIC Cloud plan for Astro hosting?

For static Astro (most common), Essential 1 GB at ₹99/mo is overkill — you could host dozens of static Astro sites on one VPS. For Astro SSR with heavy server-side logic, 1-2 GB is sufficient. Astro is generally one of the most resource-efficient frameworks.

Can I run Astro Content Collections on AIC Cloud?

Yes — Astro Content Collections are processed at build time, so they work identically to any Astro deployment. Your Markdown/MDX content becomes static HTML, served via Nginx. Combine with Astro DB for dynamic content.

Astro vs SvelteKit vs Next.js — which for marketing sites?

For pure marketing/content sites, Astro wins — smallest JS payload, fastest performance, easiest deployment as static. For interactive web apps, SvelteKit or Next.js. For documentation, Astro Starlight is purpose-built. All three run cleanly on AIC Cloud VPS.
