Prometeus Amsterdam location
The Prometeus Open Stack interface now displays Amsterdam in the list of locations. Are there any particular advantages, besides the proximity to Western parts of Europe and the States?
Any experiences?
and wheres Maounique when you need a response from him?
Thanked by 1rokok

@rchurch I don't think Maounique ventures around these parts anymore
On the other end of the Prometeus client area. Just open a ticket... ;-)
Openstack?
I am just interested in what it offers besides the obvious location and how it compares with Milan.
shuold have opened a ticket and shared the answer here.
now probably a load of people will see this, and everyone will start opening tickets about it
What DC they use?
I saw it too and was surprised. There is nothing to be found on their website about it.
Maybe they will post something about it soon.
Datacenter is serverius

I got a reply from Prometeus:
<begin ticket reply's>
as anticipated the datacenter is Serverius, we are finalizing the installation. We have a ZFS for shared storage and will deliver SSD servers by the end of the week.
we have our own storage and nodes there, also routers and switches.
The news will be out when the other new PoP is also ready.
<end ticket reply's>
So lets wait until they are finished with building there PoP.
Serverius, the datacenter with free power outages
Yeah, not amused about the choice...
Looks like they are using Haswell E3's from those single thread scores
On Twitter prometeus added some news, the there iwstack is up and running.
Also a few pictures. More news will follow, so follow them on Twitter to get updates
This was the tweet. It's probably a high performance beast of a setup but it looks pretty boring...
https://t.co/vRIp2xYij0 infrastructure in the AMSTERDAM zone, you can create #SSD and #SAN HA instances. https://t.co/qDcCUbm8TC
The one below is storage server, the 3 above are E5s and the top 3 E3s.
They have been ordered last month.
The Romanian setup will have more, even from the start.
In other news, Incero move is in progress: http://board.prometeus.net/viewtopic.php?f=15&t=1448
At this time we do not know how long it will take, we can just hope the nodes will be powered on in the right order to prevent possible issues, but it is highly unlikely, so, after the nodes are powered up, we will need extra time to sort out the issues.
WELCOME BACK!!!!!!!!!!! WE'VE MISSED YOU
Wait, there's an iwstack AMS location now?
This changes everything.
still waiting, ..down !!!!
Dallas move in progress
Indeed, no news so far. I presume Incero technicians are too busy with the move to answer tickets.
AMS has the full options, with the exception of Xen, both ssd and fail-over storage VMs will be available. At least this is the plan so far. Same for .ro
Damn you, damn you. HAPPY DANCE.
PM me Network test/looking Glass?
Any promo coming soon?
You can deploy a VM fast and see yourself. Salvatore is still working on the setup there, today had this Dallas move mess, no LG yet.
Once the deployment is done, we will have a template from which to build.
As with any product launch early adopters which risk running into bugs more than others, will get a discount.
This is not simply another iwstack zone, will have further servers and products, the storage KVMs are already in place, just need fine tuning and templates.
Must... stop... spending.... money
Fuck, too late
Serverius != Amsterdam? Serverius is located in Dronten and Meppel
If you use the same map as EasyJet and RyanAir then its definitely Amsterdam
But for the rest of the us, its absolutely not Amsterdam.
I've heard about the power issues too, not sure how widespread they are anymore. The bigger problem seems to be their IP transit service which many of the colo customers use.
Surprised at Prometeus using Serverius, hope they don't regret it. But I think they will.
Waiting for discount code/link.
Or are AMS instances billed cheaper right now?
@Maounique: will there be vpses like VZSSD30 in NL?
Would be great
@Maounique
I'm waiting for discount link/code, too:-)
