Vietnam VPS alternative to DigitalOcean and Lightsail

A DigitalOcean and Lightsail alternative with servers in Vietnam

DigitalOcean and AWS Lightsail have no servers in Vietnam; the nearest region is Singapore. If your users are in Vietnam and you want to pay in VND, Thinkmay has a 4 vCPU, 8 GB VPS in Ho Chi Minh City with VietQR top-up.

What makes it different

Every Thinkmay VPS opens VS Code and a terminal in your browser. Claude Code, Codex, Gemini or Grok sessions keep running after you close the tab, and a GitHub repo you build gets its own HTTPS address.

When to stay where you are

If you need many regions, many machine sizes, managed databases, load balancers or GPUs. Thinkmay has one VPS size in Ho Chi Minh City and does not compete on those.

If your users are in Vietnam, you want data and IPs in the country, or you have no international card, Thinkmay fits better.
