Comments
Just want to say, now your VPS is an option for APAC. Because before this, LW was a clear winner in the VPS in APAC. This might even beat those VPS providers in Asia that resell your servers.
Bravo OVH!
The Perks 1 x IPv4, 1 x IPv6 included Full root access
I mean, thanks I guess?
Any Chance you can allow the purchase of cloudlinux in your VPS range now please? Just easier to get all the licenses in 1 place.
Hope to see bench on Elite.
Made this for my own reference, but maybe it might be useful to someone else.
I still got my LW VPS, with OVH's new line up, I might get one, in a few days. I'll keep you in mind.
If only there was AMD instead of Intel... But dream on boy, dream on.
Congrats on the continued expansion. Certainly a nice product offering for the region.
Would be great if you add DirectAdmin as a paid addon.
Still no IPv6 /64 subnet
This is really really good. I do have a question though @OVH_APAC, I notice that freebsd was disabled for all the different vps options. Is that something thats being resolved?
No, OVH is not hashwell, it's just what is exposed in cpuinfo - the hypervisors uses latest gen Intel CPUs
Indeed the cpuinfo isn't accurate for these new VPSes
This is a courtesy OVH Essential VPS in Sydney that OVH is providing me for testing/benchmarks I will run.
From prelim benchmarks, it performs as fast or slightly faster than Hetzner's dedicated 2 cpu - Skylake 2.10Ghz reported KVM cpuinfo (if it's accurate). I noticed in other OVH VPS thread folks reporting 2.4Ghz versions. So if frequency is at least accurate, I am guessing these could be dual Intel Xeon Silver 4214/4214Y Scalable Cascade Lakes ? Just guessing if OVH VPS literature is accurate in that they're latest/next gen processors
Then even better!
No US? The US website now only shows 1 plan
The prices look good for the specs that is provided on paper.
I know OVH has been around for a long time but just to know from people here if it's a decent provider (decent as in not oversold to the edge that things are not usable) and is actually worth buying?
Thanks in advance!
And yes, I looked at https://www.lowendtalk.com/discussion/164185/new-ovh-vps-range but just want to solicit more opinions.
Hardware and network are generally very good. But you get pretty much 0 support when it comes to issues. If you don’t have problems or require support, you’ll be fine
They fix issues usually quite fast themselves, usually.
Absolutely if its something detected by their monitoring, its fine. But any isolated network issues etc tend to take a while to resolve based on others experiences.
Can anyone bench a Sydney VM for me?
Leaseweb was not SandyBridge either (dunno about the new lineup.)
After comparing benchmark heuristics, and instruction sets, I had come to the conclusion that mine was either E5v3 or v4.
Very solid 4 cores with zero steal on my 4gb kvm (now deprecated in favor of the new lineup)
The 2 GBps is really nice for Asia but I would love to see that on a new Dedicated game line with Ryzen CPUs.
No, they are Gay friends of cPanel. Had cancelled few servers with them because they were adamant to not to offer DA license for virtual ips on their dedicated servers.
they dont even offer DA licenses on failover IPs, so cant virtualize a hosting server on them... its main ip or nothing...
May anyone make a test curl -s https://raw.githubusercontent.com/masonr/yet-another-bench-script/master/yabs.sh | bash
?? Thank you in advance.
Hello @MissFortune , it is coming very soon for US too.
singapore
Hello @darvil , let me double check with our product team and get back to you.
I have also noted other feedbacks which I will pass on to them (IPv6, DA..etc..)
Anyone has their "Starter VPS solution"? The one with 1 vCore / 2GB RAM / 20GB SSD / 100Mbps Bandwidth.
Please bench curl -s https://raw.githubusercontent.com/masonr/yet-another-bench-script/master/yabs.sh | bash
Agree with this. I have LeaseWeb 4vCPU with them. Feels like dedi cores. I want to get the same specs with ovh to see the difference.
@OVH_APAC do you offer trial? So I can justify the move from LW to you guys in SG?
