Dedicated Mac Studio and Mac mini servers

A Mac dedicated server is a physical Mac Studio or Mac mini with Apple silicon in our data center that only you use. You get an administrator account, reach the Mac remotely and work on it like a Mac on your desk: install Xcode and your tools, run builds and services around the clock, and use the whole machine without sharing it with other customers.

A macOS VPS or VDS is a virtual Mac: a macOS virtual machine that shares Apple hardware with other virtual machines. A Mac dedicated server is the physical machine itself. Every CPU and GPU core and all of the memory and storage are yours, apps use the GPU through Metal with no virtualization layer in between, and tools that start their own virtual machines, such as Docker Desktop or the Android emulator, run on it. Choose a macOS VPS or VDS for a quick, flexible start and a dedicated Mac when you need the whole machine.

Our Mac dedicated servers are Mac Studio and Mac mini computers, every one with Apple silicon. Each plan on this page lists its configuration and its live price, so you can compare them before you order.

Yes. You get an administrator account on macOS, so you can install Xcode, Homebrew, your build tools and your own services, and change the settings your work needs.

We email your login details as soon as your Mac is ready. Connect in your browser with the HyperDC Web Console, with Apple Remote Desktop (ARD) or with the HyperDC Remote Connect app. Inside macOS you can also turn on Remote Login (SSH) for your own tools and scripts.

The order form shows the macOS versions offered for each server. Choose the one that runs the Xcode release you need: Xcode 26, which App Store Connect has required for uploads since 28 April 2026, needs macOS Sequoia 15.6 or later. Every Mac dedicated server has Apple silicon, which macOS 27 and Xcode 27 require.

Yes. Docker Desktop and virtual machines are allowed, and because a dedicated Mac is not a virtual machine itself, Docker Desktop, the Android emulator and tools that run macOS or Linux virtual machines work on it. Keep in mind that every virtual machine takes its share of the Mac's memory and storage.

Yes. Register it as a self-hosted runner for GitHub Actions or GitLab, or as a Jenkins or Buildkite agent, and automate builds, tests, signing and uploads with tools such as fastlane. Because no other customer uses the machine, build times stay steady from one run to the next.

Yes. Keep your signing certificates in the Mac's keychain, archive and sign in Xcode, notarize macOS apps with notarytool and upload builds to App Store Connect. You need your own Apple Developer Program membership; since 28 April 2026, App Store Connect accepts apps built with Xcode 26 or later.

Yes. Every Mac dedicated server has Apple silicon, where the GPU works from the Mac's unified memory, so frameworks such as MLX, llama.cpp, Ollama, Core ML and PyTorch with the Metal (MPS) backend can load models that need a lot of memory. The memory of each plan sets how large a model you can run, so check the plan list before you order.

Every plan lists the billing cycles it is offered with. Switch the cycle above the plans to compare prices; longer cycles show the saving against monthly billing when there is one.

Choose one of the payment methods offered at checkout. Every invoice also stays available in the client area, where you can pay it online.

Your service appears in the client area as soon as it is set up. From there you can manage it, pay invoices and open support tickets.
