I need suggestions for a cheap vps that will work with android emulators. I'm currently looking at some that are 5-7$ for a 6gb ram vps, which will allow me to run 2 android emulators each. However I am reading about lots of problems with android emulators on VPS and I can't find anything else about the topic.

Thanks for any and all replies.
 
I don't think Android emulator will work on a VPS. Android emulators use virtualization to run Android OS on your computer. As VPS is already virtualized it can't run another software that is using virtualization. Even if you manage to find software emulator, it will be painly slow.
But, you can order dedicated server and run Android emulator there.

Makes sense. I see websites offering VPS with claims they work for android emulators. That's about all I know on the subject lol
 
Hoping the right person finds this. Only other option is to start spending money and setting up VPS to find out.

Any replies welcome. Thanks
 
Like @Johnik answered. It will be a double virtualization and booting into android may never happen. Considering your budget you may not get a normal vps with 6gb memory in that. You may get a standalone machine with Intel Atom that some vps providers sells but in range of $40 and above. Why not buy another used computer to run same?

Because I am looking to scale aggressively with a quick ROI.

I understand what he's saying, but there are sellers offering this exact thing. I'm trying to see if anyone has used any or can recommend one. Really hoping to have to avoid trial and error on this.

That's a wonderful offer man but I don't wanna put anyone out like that y'know. Im hoping someone with prior experience comes around.

Thank you very much though.
 
There is nothing more stable than one made by yourself. Nowadays you can build your own server criminally cheap thanks to ali and xeons

Thanks. I wouldn't know what to build since idk what's gonna work and not. Good idea for stabilizing late.
 
Popular emulators like BlueStack/Memu require hardware virtualization to be enabled on your VPS provider you should ask them first if it's enabled.

Yeah I assume the places promoting vps for Android emulators have vt enabled.

I'm hoping someone with prior experience with a vendor or multiple instances of bluestacks comes along.

no I'm starting to think I'm going to have to cast my net a bit wider in post on some other forums to get an answer
