They're already in Mumbai but they're doubling tripling down. Two new locations announced this weekend.

Interesting.
sounds interesting, might try their banglore loc.
Delhi is a great choice to expand.
North India will prefer Delhi.
Damn, why no Chennai
Because it's not feasible for an international vps provider to have a dc in every city in the world. Besides Bangalore is a stone's throw away.
Their newer bare metal options are great too. Vultr is, in my opinion, the superior cloud right now. More than enough features, still lacking every reason why I don't use AWS.
Right. Chennai has the 2nd largest underwater sea cables landings next to Mumbai and close proximity to Singapore. I'm surprised no cloud provider has taken advantage of this.
Vultr seems more better day by day than digitalocean and linode. The servers are bit more powerful than digitalocean
Vultr has so many more features, locations, and plans than Linode or DigitalOcean. Vultr has definitely got to be one of my favorite clouds
Vultr doesn't support outbound cloud firewall rules, only inbound.
My use case requires both. Hence have to use DigitalOcean as they support both inbound+outbound.
Recently, Linode also started to support both inbound+outbound.
Any problem to make ruleset internally?
Yes. For running untrusted workloads.
Or for allowing external contractors to work on stuff. They have full root access on the VPS and hence can't use firewall rules internally as they can be modified.
Their object storage only available on very few locations
AWS is great SIMPLY due to the product range.
At no other provider can I have decent VPS servers, with decent object storage, with decent DNS, with decent API, and to top it all of, with decent domain registration (even .se domains).
Right now (I haven’t used it for long so idk about how I’ll feel about it in a few months) I enjoy it AND I only have one provider.
AWS everything. Nothing elsewhere.
I pay more but it’s worth it. Domains are twice the price but it’s about 3-4 bucks a month total anyway.
If I can’t make up for that with the time saved, might as well shut down.
Honestly for each services I prefer other alternatives, but they just don’t offer the bulk.
For VPS I like Vultr, for DNS CloudFlare, for domains Sav, for Object Storage B2.
None of them do the bulk of it though.
