Yep, pricing is attractive, but a nice yearly plan is always welcome
Only one snapshot is kept and rotated every night, is that right? Any way to setup the backup to be weekly for example?
So far I've got 2.
@combahton_it can we expect that you'll reduce price by 30%?
I'm sure you'll get a lot of customers from here. More customers -> more money to invest and become a big player in this cloud competition.
Also missing load balancer feature...
Nice, day -1 and day -2?
As far as I can see there is no weekly option, and they are apparently kept for two days. But you can take a permanent snapshot for an extra fee.
Hi,
we do provide two restore points for daily backups from now
I've opened a issue in our Git to add multiple restore points with the next release, currently our environment (from a code point of view) does not provide the ability to have multiple restore points. But I think it's a great idea in general ;-)
@alexvolk we do have Loadbalancers, it's called HaaS (https://www.fastpipe.io/haas). Please get in touch with our customer service if you want to add a HaaS.
As our pricing is already quite low and we offer a huge amount of features (Anti-DDoS, great connectivity, cheap extra ip-addresses, daily backups, etc.), I dont see any possibility to provide a discount. Our company isnt just a hobby project like some summer hosts and at the end of the day, we do want to have some financial safety too :-)
Is it free? If yes, looks unbelievable
Unfortunately not, but I think it's a great addition if you need highest possible uptime :-)
Nice, thanks!
Non EU = no VAT. Then Cloud SE-4 is 4,41 €/month! Or are you a non non EU (=EU) customer?
Non EU. But was told that "non EU will not have extra VAT charged," so interpreted as EUR 5.25 excludes VAT.
The advertised prices include German VAT (19%), which would then be subtracted in the case of non-EU.
Damnit.
Hi,
to clarify that, the pricing includes all required taxes. In case you are non EU or non Germany, the price applies as net as there needs to be no tax dissipated on our side.
You can comprehend both in our order process as well as your invoice.
I oftentimes am finding myself with the experience of an immensified enjoyment in the reading of this style of translated-to-English clarification and all earnest attempts herewith thereto!
(Though I am quite sure it is exponentially more understandable than any attempt I might make to communicate Germanically, so fair enough.)
Retranslated (if I understand corrctly):
@combahton_it
need a separate extra fee?
@combahton_it - since you've been answering questions here, could you please clarify if you will support cpu pass through upon request as they help improve performance a lot within the VPSs?
Hi, Snapshots are billed extra as they are kept as long as you dont delete it. Means, we need to provide the storage for that. The pricing depends on your server, as larger as it is, as more it costs.
Currently we dont support cpu passthrough by default. However, we will turn on AES as cpu instruction on request - feel free to open a ticket
Do you support any BGP communities / full table?
Any reason why AES isn't enabled by default?
They do, I get a full table from them myself, there is a blackhole community if I recall right...
@datanoise no particular reason so far :-)
@hzr we do provide a few more communities, you can check them out in our RIPE aut-num: https://apps.db.ripe.net/db-web-ui/#/query?searchtext=AS30823#resultsSection (Communities accepted from customer)
would like to give fastpipe.io a go but just wondering about packetloss:

@ilBarista
You mean this one?
These are routers, they dont need to be responsive for ICMP. Their primary job is it to forward packets from A to B without packetloss. As you can see with the following hops and even the final target (lg.combahton.net), they did. It's a wide spread misunderstanding, that routers need to be responsive to ICMP. Only if the target would have packetloss or all following hops in general, there would exist a problem.
In our case, our network gear is configured to not allow more than 2Mbit/s of ICMP traffic on their control plane. Means, if you ping one of our routers and it already deals with a lot of ICMP traffic, you will see a result like the above. That doesnt mean, that we rate-limit ICMP traffic to your server, it only targets the routers (edge/core). It's an protection mechanism for our network which needs to be interpreted correctly.
Our infrastructure and servers are monitored very closely from a few different locations, where we operate our own Icinga2 Cluster across. A real problem would be detected within seconds and leads to a immediate alarm (Push, SMS, Phone Call) of the on call duty.
You can read more about that on https://www.fastpipe.io/infrastructure (see "Always there for you and your services, our oncall duty").
+1 and it's a wide spread misunderstanding how a traceroute/mtr works at all to begin with ;-)
I was stunned by the complicated tax rate calculation.
Fast questions: could we no-EUers get Cloud SE-2 at the price ~2.5EUR (2.95/1.19) ?
"stunned"? That bad, eh?
Yeah, I guess 2,48 EUR.
sorry, my native language is not English and cant use words accurately. (●ˇ∀ˇ●), maybe I should used Troubled
I hope so. I have submintted ticket but have no reply so far ( I can understand because it is weekend now )
"troubled" would also be too strong in this case. You could simply say:
"I'm wondering about how the tax rate is calculated."
Yeah, unfortunately, you may have to wait until tomorrow.
