DM’d, thanks a lot
That disk and network is worst than my boomer vm 🙄
@VanwaTechVPS DM'd you. Thanks
Price change
0$
0.01$
1$ now - at 1$ per month I guess Virmach Flash Sales had better deal
You have to request an account credit to get the product for free - just DM me your email or post it here. We are processing them as they come
So it's free for 1 month or is it free forever like initial offer was?
I would rather get a NAT VM for around $3-$5 yearly and that would still have better performance!
It's free if you continue to get credit
Well, it's free with the credit, this is not one of our primary offerings.
Performance upgrades are being rolled out
I would apply if i see a bench with good performance atleast better than current bench logs!
Sounds good, thanks
You're welcome nick!
So is @VanwaTechVPS still hosting Kiwi Farms?
Krebs said they were in Sep 2022: https://yournews.com/2022/09/07/2409354/update-vanwatech-to-now-host-kiwi-farms/
But in November, KF was on here asking for a home: https://lowendtalk.com/discussion/182253/kiwi-farms-bgp-announcements/p1
We never hosted any of those websites, we only did their CDN.
Our ToS is simple for the CDN we don't host the content so we can't take anything down. We only stop providing service to a website if the government requests it.
Surely you technically do host the content for a CDN, do you not cache it on your own nodes?
Some of our customers do use caching for their websites - which is distinct from hosting. Almost every browser even has its own caching mechanisms.
Basically, you can depend on us to service you without issue.
I don't understand how a CDN network works without actually hosting the content though, otherwise it'd just be a reverse proxy right?
Exactly we operate as a reverse-proxy. Rather than a purely storage-based CDN.
In this way we serve primarily as just DDoS protection for many of these websites. Doing their SSL and then reverse proxying to the origin host server.
It's a rapidly growing model for website deployment, and I think soon there will be a few websites not using a reverse-proxy type CDN.
What makes us different from a lot of VPS providers, and even reverse-proxy CDNs like CloudFlare is that we offer both CDN and VPS.
Using one requires the other in most cases. Customers who do use our VPS and CDN together benefit from secure almost 0ms latency to edge servers among other benefits.
Not to mention deep web features that only we have.
So what are the benefits of that, other than hiding the origin?
HTTPS
HTTP/2
DDoS Protection
Caching
Load Balancing
Bot Mitigation
Header Modifications
Content Modification
Deep Web Routing
etc
Check out the panel, there are endless features we have. We have everything CloudFlare has and more.
Great, thank you. More curious than anything
Not really, many use anycast, route optimization, not only caching. Also, if caching does happen, it is not really on disks (albeit it is possible), more like in ram.
You only need to cache to disk if you don't optimize well what is actually being cached. There is an art of configuring the caching and in many cases it depends on your niche. Big CDNs have layered caching, like the CPUs.
That said, caching is not hosting, it used to be explicitly exempted from DMCA AFAIK (long time since i read).
Very true!
