Free 4GB VPS from Incero

@Fliphost posted a thread about this, but didn't mention that you could literally deploy a 4GB VPS with 100GB disk and 4 cores of E5 goodness within seconds of signing up for an account: http://portal2.incero.com/cloud-register
Combine this with https://receiveee.com and it's pretty damn easy to abuse the service....

o.O
@Hassan No fraud checks or anything...
Yikes, yeah. Not really clever, took me ~20 seconds to get an instance, literally.
Abuse heaven.
Try abusing and see what happens then.
@Infinity it even logs you into the account automatically after signing up for an account.
What? Instantly deployed. lol
@DalComp Yup. Wonder how long it's going to take before getting abused...
dem instances
It is being abused right now, thanks to you.
Was going to say that but meh..
Abusers will love this thread.
@DStrout @Infinity I made the thread, not doing the abusing myself...
and why it is free?
@netomx Probably because they're testing stuff.
thanks for the noice, created one
Interestingly:
0 memory used on an Ubuntu instance.
And Gordon will kill the whole test because of them. He's a bit like me in that, I've got a hole in my wall for each time someone abused my services.
Its not real cloud setup though, false advertising. Doesnt even have a SAN!
I get this too:
whats the problem?
Do you know for sure what the setup is? You can pretty much host this on CentOS in a ESX cluster using a SAN datastore. This would technically work and be redundant.
Being able to provision your own OpenVZ containers is pretty neat in itself.
Alright, next time I want to break into your house I'll abuse your services multiple times. :P
I know that, but abusers will definately be looking out for opportunities like this, yes, even on LowEndTalk, and especially since LowEndTalk has a great Google index, it'll easily get in the abusers view. Either way, it doesn't matter now.
I you look at the IOping it is always .1ms, which is basically impossible on SAN. And the disk IO is too fast for SAN
Just remember I don't fight fair :P
I want to know how long one can use this ?
nevermind
Now I'm going to have to try this! But I'm sure you're 100% right.
Now you guys know darn well that "cloud" actually means remote desktop and file sharing, all of which can be done on this!
My daily poke at Microsoft. Was beginning to wonder where I'd get one in.
This is what I'm getting for ioping on Debian632minimal on Debian64-2.6.32-5-openvz-amd64 in ESXi with a SAN.

Odd this is what I was getting http://serverbear.com/benchmark/2013/03/11/rFr9U99aZDquyo0h
The point being that this isn't a SAN.
