    @sh97 said: Bench from a flash sale plan I barely managed to get for BF23.

    2x core
    2GB RAM
    28GB SSD
    20TB@1G
    $19.99/yr

    YABS ....

    That works for me !!

    Thank you again for posting this. That network test looks really consistent. I was just looking for something that was good network wise in the EU, but that looks good to everywhere. (Pleasantly surprised face.)

    Yup. I have not put anything on it yet - I'm doing a stock tracker project for a host, that will be deployed here.
    So at regular intervals, I bench, to check if performance is consistent, gotta say it is.
    GB5 is always above 400 (so far), disk speeds are consistent, and you can push 1G on the network to almost all of the EU.

    The project I have is not very CPU intensive, but I need a well connected network in the EU so this sounds perfect. Thanks again for helping me out on this.

  • Dare I say....

    Good luck with sales, @dustinc!

    @Xrmaddness -- Thank You! We're seeing a decent amount of orders & interest so far even though we just launched ~2 hrs ago, which is awesome.

    We sincerely appreciate your continued support. We have a lot of exciting developments in store for 2024! 🎉👊

    Really glad to hear it!

    I'm not sure if someone else has already pointed this out already, but in case you were not already aware, the $11.49/year plan on your website shows "1000 GB Monthly Transfer" while your offer post shows "1500GB Monthly Premium Bandwidth".

    Just spent the last 10 minutes trying to figure out why my web mail server was showing an expired cert, when I had renewed it on the 9th of December. Restart Apache, cert still shows expired. Verify that cert is correct by decoding at https://www.sslshopper.com/certificate-decoder.html yep cert is good. Then I remember that I am running nginx on that server not apache. Restart nginx. All good now. Does anybody else get these senior moments where you forget which type of web server you are running on a particular server ?
    I am currently running 48 VMs.

    It's quite natural when you are running 48VMs! BTW, don't most SSL certs provide a way to auto-renew the certs on a daily basis?

    I renew every 60 days or so. Because I geocast I find it easier to have all my certs auto renew to one location, and then run a script to send them to all the places they need to go. I set it up this way on purpose so that I can read the output to make sure everything goes where it is suppose to and all the web servers restart properly. In this case I fat fingered the web server type so restarting apache did not make the cert renew in nginx. Good news was that my monitor caught it real fast and let me know there was something wrong.

    Ngl, 50% of that stuff went over my head, mainly cause, "geocast" is a new term for me. But, thanks for that. I got yet another thing to learn about.

    Why not just use edge certificate and origin certificate for this.

    I try to stay around 42, but you know BF and RN sales and all that sometimes puts me over then I sell a few off to get back to 42. Of course some of the 42 have gotten much bigger over the years, but there is no limit on size, just the number of VMs.

    Geocast just means that I have multiple servers that run the same synchronized data in various locations around the world. The user gets sent to the closest server to his location so the response time is fast no matter their location. Most people normally just use a CDN to accomplish this but I do it my way. Not saying it is better for everyone, but it is better for me.

    Oh, got it. So, kinda like your own CDN. Cool. So, is there a primary server that filters IPs to determine the country and then send the user to the closest server? Or, is there a different mechanism that does the initial filtering.

    You may be smarter than me on this one but if I wish to have independently redundant servers without using Cloudflare how would one do this ? Each server is an edge and each server could be an origin at any give time based on failover when any server in the group goes down.

    I may not be referring to CF but a traefik nodes serving as edge and others as origin of edge goes down the origin takes over and ssl is automated with traefik, really need to think an approach on this one.
