You mean here? https://www.ovh.com/manager/dedicated/index.html
I can see my kimsufi there.
The Kimsufi manager is a separate panel to the OVH one, at some point OVH decided to give Kimsufi it's own.
https://www.kimsufi.com/fr/manager/?lang=en_GB is the one I think everyone's referring to.
Yup, that's correct @Nekki. http://i.imgur.com/gGlHpGe.png?1
Cool. FWIW, I just logged into the panel and my BHS server is there.
How did I not know that? It does not accept my credentials.
(yes I entered them correctly)
It's only for Kimsufi's bought after a certain date, I'm not certain, but I believe it's for all orders after they instigated the setup fee. My two GRA servers from the final pre-setup fee sales only show on the OVH manager you linked to, whilst my BHS server purchased after the setup fees were introduced only displays in the Kimsufi manager.
Is it still not possbile to transfer Kimsufis? I have one of the original 4€/month N2800s expiring next month and could transfer it to someone if that's possible.
I don't think you can move those ones, probably ever. I'd guess OVH will be glad to see the back of them.
Damn, I'd definitely take it..
For my needs a kidechire is better. Besides, OVH never wanted me as customer.
At 3 Eur a month I would have taken an atom, at 4 I am already considering a decent VPS with a decent provider. At 5 I take the VPS.
^this
I dare say pretty much everyone other than the storage hungry would agree with you.
Add CPU power
Is the Kimsufi basic Atom N2800 really that much better? If I wanted a decent chunk of CPU I'd probably for for a VPS if I was looking to stay in the same price bracket.
I had today again a DDOS attack on my Gameserverbox, as OVH said it was going on 1 Hour, last time it was about 7 Minutes. And i must say, i just saw the impact, 3 mins later it was migrated, GS was back online but the DDOS was still going on as OVH said but everything was working smoth.
Seems like the filtering is working reallly good.
Technically it is, since core-for-core the N2800 is a bit faster
...and then you also get two cores instead of one
...and then each of those also supports HT (so 4 virtual)
It can be up to ~3-3.5 times faster on multithreaded tasks.
However in reality I haven't noticed that Nano is any slower, on the contrary I'd say it's turned out to be much better than I expected. My primary task for them is light web serving + SQL (web and DB on two different servers, same setup I had on KS1).
Also Nano supports the crypto acceleration, which will help if you host HTTPS websites (and which the Atom doesn't have).
Did you said kidechire isn't it? so compare it with that. Just find dedicated server with that price mark, the KS-1 (n2800) and at least with that CPU power
Not sure what you mean?
Anyway, @rm_ provided a decent summary, so it appears it comes down to whether you need to be able to deal with multiple threads or not, as to whether the KS-1 is worth the extra couple of Euro (if you don't need the additional disk, obviously).
Every one has different requirements.
Kimsufi KS 1 (n2800) -> more disk space (usually fresh hdd), more cpu power, better DDoS. Very-very bad support.
Online.net kidechire -> 100gb backup, great bandwidth, and great support.
Personally I choose KS1 and perhaps if I need bandwidth+great support I pick Online.net, that the points. Sorry, english is my third language so lot of mess
That means you've still got 2 more languages than I have, so I'm in no place to judge.
I wasn't really going for a full comparison anyway, I was really just commenting on Mao's assessment.
I have one Online.net kidechire for rent. PM me if interested. Paypal accepted
Same here, I have a Via C7 and it sucked compared to contemporary CPUs, even though only geode, maybe, had the same low power consumption. It does the job i need it to do (the C7) but it is no champion at all.
I went for some benchmarks and the nano should have been way worse than the N2800, in reality, while probably not on par by any measure, it is somewhat 2/3, maybe 3/4 if you consider the crypto support. Another case in which benchmarks only tell part of the story.
Online.net really found the atom killer IMO, they wanted to prove they can do better than OVH and they did. I am almost sure OVH still loses money on those, probably as much as online.net does.
The only thing I cant compare is the DDoS protection since i never experienced it from the times of CS 1.6 when I was hosting a couple of servers at UMB (undermybed).

Yeah, if we are to judge from the benchmarks, the atom is more than twice as good, but in reality, the "feel" is like 33-25% better only.
Not always http://lowendtalk.com/discussion/comment/826637/#Comment_826637
That because you run non CPU intensive task I guest
but any way the regular prices for Nano is €5.99 / month + 20.00 € vs € 4.99 /month + € 9.99 so KS-1 is still good deal actually.
Uhm, it depends. I am not mining, if that is what you think or do "grid computing" optimized to get the last bit of sweat from the cpus, but on maxed out atom i do some 500 GB on Tor (D525, not N2800, true, but still dual core) a day and i expect to do the same with Nano. From what I saw at spikes, it does that.
Even if the CPU is twice as fast, for the price you can get 2 kidechires. Who pays regular prices anyway. ;p 2€ for kidechire and 4€ for kimsufi in my case.
Kidecherie seem to be much harder to get, from my experience.
@edan can you access the My services page on the Kimsufi console or is it showing errors as well?
It's fixed for me now at least.
