Your Dream VPS Deal

Simple, what would your dream VPS or deal be?

Not a Octocore system for $1/m something realistic but what you would want...

    I'd like an affordable dedi in the UK, kimsufi style prices/spec.

    I'd like a Linode 1GB RAM (understand why they might not want to do this, but 2GB is much more than I usually need) or DigitalOcean 1GB RAM 2CPU for $10 - $12 per month

    Poundhost? Only been with them one month but has been good so far. http://lowendbox.com/blog/poundhost-10-99-2gb-250gb-atomcore-dedicated-server-in-reading-uk/

    Can vouch for them. Great company!

    @DH22 Kimsufi spec but not Kimsufi price. If I didn't already have 2 Kimsufi's in France I'd have kept on that, but I'd probably need double the spec of that Poundhost offer to jack them in.

    Id like that too tbh, just not sure PoundHost is what im after and the IP's are expensive.

    What pricing? £20/mo or lower?

    Lower I think, if have to check what I was paying for the Kimsufi's, but approx a fiver on top of whatever they're costing me would probably be the limit, otherwise it's not worth the trade-up.

    GVH specs offered by @Francisco.

  • shovenoseshovenose Member, Host Rep

    I agree that a Linode half the size and price of their current smallest one would be fantastic.

    Twice the size and half the price would also be acceptable.

    50gb HDD
    4gb ram
    1 gbps port(shared of course)
    50TB BW /month

    Price : $45/month

  • mikhomikho Member, Host Rep

    A small 32-64mb vps in Sweden from a provider I trust that I can use as a vpn server.

  • NekkiNekki Veteran

    Jack said: What pricing? £20/mo or lower?

    Right, have a look at the billing, I'm paying £24 (inc VAT) a quarter for 2 2GB/500GB/2 Atom Core machines, so approximately £8 a month for two machines.

    I'd be prepared to go up to roughly £13 inc VAT per month to have a 4GB, 500GB or more HDD, plus 4 cores, otherwise it isn't really worth trading up just to have something a few ms closer/not with OVH. I'd be up for paying £40 a quarter if that helped make it more viable, if I felt it was a provider I could trust.

    Pretty much what @ricardo said:

    • $15-$20 per year
    • 64 to 256MB RAM
    • 5 to 10GB HDD
    • 1TB bandwidth: 20Mbps guaranteed on a Gbit uplink
    • Locations: All of EDIS' locations (pretty much all around the world)
    • SLA offered by provider
    • "Hosts business model is sustainable, host is happy, host loves life", à la @NickA, @Maounique or @William
    • Active on Twitter/IRC and quickly informs customers in case of sudden downtime.

    25$ /year,
    512mb ram,
    20gb disk + optional cache,
    500gb bandie,

    europe/L.A.

  • NekkiNekki Veteran

    Jack said: Given OVH give 100mbps unmetered it's just crazy as that would probably cost any small scale provider a decent amount of money to legitimately offer it.

    I don't need anything like unmetered TBH, my bandwidth requirements are relatively modest (after the first month of migrating everything anyway), a couple of hundred GB would suffice.

    I figured the rest probably wouldn't be viable, but this is a 'dream' thread after all.

    I for the right specs I could go to £20/month, with enough resources I could replace more than the 2 Kimsufi's I guess.

  • FalzoFalzo Member

    7$ monthly: OpenVZ with committed fair overselling, 3 vCore, 5GB Ram, 2.5 GB vSwap, 25 GB pure SSD, 500GB BW (1Gbps shared), location like Netherland, Germany, France.

  • perennateperennate Member, Host Rep

    I'll pay $300/mo for dual L5420 or similar with around 8 GB memory, 500 GB disk, 1 gbit network connection and 10+ TB bandwidth.

    .

    .

    if its deep underwater in middle of Pacific, or in Antarctica

    @Jack said:
    To replace two Kimsufi's what sort of usage are you using them for?

    Do you require Disk IO or CPU resources?

    Right now one is a SubSonic server with a large single-user ownCloud install, plus a bit of VPN on the side; the other is running a NewzNab powered private usenet indexer and holding backups of pretty much every VPS I have.

    As such, CPU is a must for SubSonic as I use it video transcoding, NewzNab uses 100% of an Atom core in non-threaded mode, and both NewzNab and ownCloud need reasonable disk I/O, NewzNab in particular is constantly writing to the DB.

    $15-20/yr LEB at less common locations, e.g. IS, SE, AT, JP.
    (128 MB RAM, 5 GB disk, 1 ipv4, 1 ipv6, tun/tap, decent uptime)

    This will likely change over time, but currently I only run a few things and like the idea of distribution across multiple mini servers.

  • NekkiNekki Veteran

    I'd remove my trousers for a $15/year VPS in Japan. I'd be in green circle heaven.

  • AuroraZAuroraZ Barred

    **KVM **
    2-3 cores
    256-512 mb ram
    20GB disk space
    250-350GB Bandwidth
    Location Chicago
    IPv4-IPv6 is a must
    $2.50-$3.00 a month

    Would be a well used dev box so you can not get upset if I use the cores a lot. Also need isos loaded.

    Dedi would be acceptable also but the price would have to so attractive that no one will give me one. Like the old Kimsufi Dedis were priced is what I mean.

    This is but one of my pipe dreams as of late.

  • Cheap dedis on the Best Coast. That's all I want in life.
