Thinking about using several VPS Servers throughout the world to use as VPN nodes. There are several hosts offering 10Gbps VPS servers, is that just marketing or can VPS Servers actually handle such throughput? Can you guys recommend VPS hosts that have worldwide presence, and offer 10Gbps bandwidth with large Data Transfer allowance (50TB+)?
Yes, VPS can do 10Gbps. If you are setting up the VPS on a server with 100Gbps NIC it is possible. Ideally if you need 10Gbps sustained usage you need to setup your own VPS environment.

Setup my own VPS environment. You mean a dedicated server? I am looking into VPS because I don't need full-resources that a dedicated server offers. Just need to setup some VPN relay nodes i.e. don't need a database or high-end cpu, or large amounts of ram. Just a server able to forward TCP traffic at 7-10 Gbps (not-sustained)

Most of the VPS providers offering 10Gbps speeds will be offering it as a shared offering. The host server will be connected to a dedicated 10Gbps NIC and all the VPS hosted on the host node will share the 10Gbps pipe

There are definitely VPSes with 10Gbps bandwidth (something like Clouvider), but most likely the bandwidth will be shared and/or capped.
If my server can pull that massive amount of bandwidth, I will worry about getting throttled.

If it is too good to be true, it often is.

The cost of a 10G port will often surpass that of a VPS. Get a dedicated server if you need 10 Gbps.

I need 10Gbps to handle traffic bursts, most of the time usage will be less than 1Gbps.

Gradually yes, but getting 10 Gbps in/out at one given time, impossible. I used to had to explain to clients that getting 10gbps true throughput is impossible to get at one giving poll, but gradually you can get a sum of 10

If you're asking whether VPS hosts can achieve 10Gbps+, then yes. As long as they're running on platforms such as KVM or ESXi, which can deliver near-native speeds with the right hardware, performance can get very close to bare metal.

Absolutely, VPS can hit 10Gbps bursts if the host node and network are built for it. Just remember it’s usually shared capacity, not guaranteed throughput. You may ask the host if the node has enough capacity and isn’t oversold. In our tests, many VPS setups actually outperformed comparable dedicated servers for network throughput.

Even if a VPS says it has a 10Gbps port, that doesn’t guarantee fast speeds if the path your traffic takes through the internet is slow or congested. It's like having a sports car but being stuck in traffic.
