@Maounique you mean you don't like rolling in piles of cash? :P
Does having a location in ths US make you vulnerable to threats by the US government? Is the data on my Italy VPS still safe?
Nothing has changed regarding EU servers, but I think you should not be worried about us being vulnerable to US threats, you should be worried the Italian government might be.
People were kidnapped in the streets of Rome by CIA, I think nothing is safe anywhere.
We don't move any data over there, even when the cloud services will be active you'll choose the zone where your instance/storage need to be created.
This is the example for the severbear on DallasZ3 / 384MB :

You don't need a visa for the US as EU citizen, also applies to newer EU (BG/RO).
@Willaim yes, you do. We've been promised for years that the visas would be removed, but this is still not the case.
Sweet Lincoln's Mullet!! 1.8 GB/s disk I/O Very nice.
Signed up for it last night, very satisfied with what I've received but I guess you can always say that about Prometeus
I'm still hanging on to one of their 50 cent plans as well 
Please consider New Jersey!
Most of the servers in New Jersey are built around financial centers. I do not really see the huge advantage of NJ server, living in NJ my self I dont find it very useful, unless you are on dial up [lol].
for NJ, i even use France/NL servers and still get nice .
NY or South of USA have good servers, I don't trust Chicago Servers or Atlanta since most of the spammers originate from there and I never had any good luck with them, but that's a personal experience.
Wat?
I mean allot of cheap and massive providers for low end VPS and allot of attacks/flood/port scans [kiddies] just dont worry.
I don't think that it unique to Atlanta and Chicago. Do you have some data?
I don't think we can cover more than one US location with iwStack, is a very expensive deploy (both in time/work and hardware), so if Dallas prove to be good enough no more location will be tried :-)
Throw my vote in for New Jersey too.
Do you have some spare room at home? :-)
Choopa is very popular amongst NJ DCs, which also doesn't seem to mind tanking some DDoS :-)
Dallas can adequately cover NJ (and all of North America). If you are going to invest more resources, rather than "doubling up" in one geographic region, why not invest in Asia, South America, or Australia?
Please don't disclose our plans ;-)
We're gonna expanding to Asia??
maybe ;-)
If they were choosing two US locations I'd be all for New Jersey and something else, but with one location picking somewhere central (like Dallas) that provides the best possible latency to the entire country is a much better idea.
My thoughts exactly, and is not far from miami either. The only issue with dallas was so far IPv6. If that is the only problem and we check all other requirements, we will most likely stay there. From Milano we dont do so bad on the east coast and Dallas does even better.
We will not put 2 IWStack deployments in US. At least not in the foreseeable future.
@Maounique Doesn't Incero allow you to have ipv6 for a $200 setup fee or for free if you wait for them to automate it?
yes, waiting for the manual setup :-)
Sounds great. I will have another server from them
or soon?
And plenty other hosts at same location. I like Italy, it was something new in LEB world but Dallas is just meh...
