    You mentioned the best in the world of free virtual servers.
    However, the disadvantage of Oracle Free Tier is that the speed is limited to 50Mbps based on Seoul Region/x86 instance (500Mbps is a theoretical speed) and it is an Oracle.

    I think starting at 0,29 € / month is one of the cheapest offers you could find.

    Does anyone have any benchmarks? Any reviews? I found offer thread, but it was full of cries about 5€ deposit, and nothing about the service...

    ARM instance has higher network speeds

    Op wants it for DNS 50Mbps is overkill

    On x86
    500Mbps is speed inside Oracle network (private), 50Mbps outside (public). Location doesnt matter.

    I haven't been around here for a while.

    Did someone find another billion IPv4 addresses down the back of a sofa?

    Plan is Budget VM - Pro.
    First at all, it's worse than the x86 instances offered through the Oracle Free Tier. Except for network speed.
    Of course, considering the price, it cannot be said that it is bad. And this is KVM. Not OpenVZ.
    If you pay annually, you can use VPS for €4.99/year.
    IPv4 is provided as NAT, and IPv6 can be used as a static IP if configured separately.

    I haven't had any problems with Racknerd, I highly recommend them.

    Same. One advantage racknerd have over the other cheap deals is that racknerd genuinely have a LOT of different host nodes so you can buy multiple services on different nodes.

    Other providers with the cheap deals cram everyone together into a slow overcrowded server that is about to meltdown.

    I had 256MB, 3.5USD per year vps recently. If you can wait until January 2022 you can get one of them https://my.boomer.host/order.php?step=1&productGroup=4

    Tbh next lineup will be quite nice. Dallas servers with Path DDoS protection setup in a cluster of high availability servers. If one server fails, the next one takes up the load from the shared array of storage servers

    January is the month that the scam larvae begin their transformation into full blown deadpool-shitterpillars.

    I think you should probably just wait till BlackFriday. Although if you're looking for something very stable and reliable, then BuyVM ( @Francisco ) is your best option. Their cheapest plan is $2.5/mo and gets you 512MB Memory which should enough for your use.

    If not, then you could try going to Gullo ( @Cam ) or @webhorizon

    I'm an active user on all three and I haven't had any issues with said providers so far. :smile:

    I'll wait and see what all is out there. I'm just now looking at low end stuff and it's a brand new world to me. I appreciate the advice, bruv. Thank you.

    typicalGtaTG has the pricing wrong for BuyVM... the smallest is $20/year or $2/month (with no automatic backups). I just terminated a server with 250+ days of uptime at BuyVM, so I can vouch for reliability.

    I have no experience with the other hosts mentioned, but I would say committing to a full year at any company is risky if you don't want to spend even $16/year: what if it's not good enough and you now have to pay someone else even more to switch? You may have to lower expectations or increase your budget.

    BuyVM servers are in and out very fast, and I don't believe Fran does sales, ever. So I would recommend finding a way to get notified when servers are in stock if you want to go with BuyVM - a few sites do this, mine included https://buyvmstock.xyz/ (affiliate links used).

    Wow, thank you so much for the suggestions, helpings and the support. I'm very grateful. I will be waiting for Black Friday as well and also doing some more research about all the wonderful suggestions here.

    Thanks guys. :)

    I'm tired of registering oracle, It's too difficult.

    I have three servers for free with them. 2x 1GB/1oCPU AMD, and 1x 24GB 4oCPU, and a 50GB free block storage, in addition to the 50gb attached to each instance. That's a good bit.

    How difficult can it be? How different is it as compared to other providers?

    For that tiny bind9 need, as low as possible. I got a few good suggestions. Still researching and waiting to see some BF deals.

  • stonedstoned Member

    Say for example, you go with Racknerd deal $12/yr etc. Do they charge more next year on renew or does the pricing remain the same?
