It also means you can 'upgrade' without migration. They just instruct the hypervisor to provide more resources to the single VM. Or such is my understanding of the new product.

We have built infrastructures and its literally almost impossible to make our money back with how cheap VPS hosting has become. This causes many companies to oversell which is not right at all. Even godaddy has stopped selling bare metal servers. If you go to their dedicated server section, you will see the word “VM” in the description. The answer is focusing on quality support because clients are willing to pay a little more for great support and stability.
