Facet: Use cases — every value: https://www.findhost.app/use-cases/

7 providers market themselves for game servers, listed alphabetically. Split across virtual private servers, bare metal and serverless.

A game server holds open connections, often over UDP on non-standard ports, and its quality is measured in milliseconds to the player. That rules out most web hosting, which serves HTTP on two ports and optimizes throughput rather than latency. Providers marketing it mean a machine or a container with direct network access, chosen for where the players are.
