    Today, had another great support experience, courtesy of the RackNerd customer support team. I don't know if they have an internal mechanism to monitor response times, but, I am still amazed by their quick response times. And, it makes me wonder why those big corporations with all that money, charging 4x prices than RackNerd can't provide quick support. Gonna stick with RackNerd for life now !

    Hi @noob404 -- Love this! You're absolutely right about our response times, and for that, I appreciate you sharing your experience.

    Quick and helpful technical support has always been one of our core fundamentals. We've invested heavily in building a solid team that understands the importance of rapid responses. Without a doubt, I can say that our internal monitoring shows consistently quick response times, averaging just ~10 minutes.

    Thank You for trusting RackNerd with your business! ❤️

    Hey Dustin, can I have double bandwidth on this order?

    Number: 9479995322

    Thank you.

    You bought a new server this season?

    $850 RackNerd credits, dude! Remember?

    Yup. I am wondering what you bought. I thought you will take some time to decide what to do

    Nah, got friends lined up to buy stuff as well. I wanted to try something good and saw my chance right here.

    Just tell us what you bought. A dedi?

    Nah, not yet, just a Ryzen VPS fo a few months to test stuff out. Friends planning to get a few dedis.

    Ryzen where? I think i've seen Racknerd have baremetal in singapore.

    US itself. Didn't care about the location. The project I plan there better be close to US.

    man i am setting up a DB server on a lsw vps1 seems fine for now let's see how it unfolds :)

    MariaDB?

    A single server for mariadb + postgres, with couple of DBs ranging from 400mb to 1gig

    You already have that much of data? existing project?

    yeah have to move around bunch of stuff and fix some issues with nginx fastcgi

    Postgres seems much more lightweight than PHPMyAdmin. Gotta try it out someday.

    postgrest and mariadb both are different, my use case mostly goes with mariadb postgres for some js stuff where i don't need that much of data unlike mariadb.

    Oh, I used to think Postgres was a PHPMyadmin alternative. Isn't it a client rather than a server?

    yeah postgresql it's a db server :smile:

    Didn't know this. Thank you.

    always happy to help, there are other db servers as well, typically monogodb and postgres are more flexible than mariadb and can scale better for me mariadb is serving just too much of my infra.... don't have time or patience to migrate everything over.

    Me as well. Moved to MariaDB a few years ago from MySQL. Stayed with it, cause it serves my purposes well, and is slightly faster than MySQL in some cases. Will have to try Postgres one of these days.

    you will instantly notice the difference specially since postgres supports much more indexing types than mariadb and of course the scalability....

    Yup. I am also planning to use it for the shop plan I told you before.

    sounds like a plan, i would also suggest leveraging redis or something better for in memory caching, you get better response times.

    True, support is the main thing most companies fail to deliver.

    Yah. They somehow overcharge and fail to deliver the bare minimum in terms of after sales support. Don't understand what their strategy is.

    I've seen them. Some people are fighting in HH thread as well about support.

    Pardon me what's HH?

    Another premium provider here.

    Oh yah, TrK clarified. Hosthatch, right?

    Yup, there was big fighting going between fans and people who ordered one month back. HH team is not communicating it seems.

    Postgres is like msyql/mariadb.. another databse. Phpmyadmin is php web client to access and manage the db server

    Yah, it is clear now. I am half asleep right now.

    It happens. And you'll learn all these on the way..

    Thanks to you guys.

    mongo have a pretty good documentation about DB scaling, let me just find it...

    No problem, I will google for it. Thank you.

    Where's everybody. let's bring the RackNerd Christmas spirit to the thread now!!

    Everyone celebrating the festival I think.

    Makes sense. Got any plans for Christmas?

    No plans. Working currently. :(

    BTW, whatever happened of your Jellyfin plans. Had the time to try it yet?

    Not yet. Those are for NewYear, i will start working on it after 31st.

    Oh ok. Ping me if you face any issues.

    Sure. Are you using it currently?

    Yup. On my Android box. But, planning to get an SSD for it soon.

    SSD will definitely improve the experience. Can your android box handle the streaming

    Oh yes, for that, I use their official clients, which disables transcoding on the Android box. If I do transcode, it's always 100% CPU usage on the Box with constant buffering.

    Ok, so transcoding may not work with the 2 core setup then. They have Android client as well?

    Oh yes, they got official and some unofficial forks with added features, for virtually every OS. here it is https://jellyfin.org/downloads/

    Just realised, they even got one for WebOS. So, if you got a recent LG TV, you are set there as well.

    Nah.. my tv is old VU non smart. Have firestick though.

    They have a Firestick client as well. I use it there. Works as expected.

    firestick is just android.........

    Yup, it is I just meant the official client is available on the FireStick store itself.

    Hi @xpress7 -- No AI within our support :) Just a passionate team that understands the importance of quick, helpful support, and truly cares for our customers' needs as if it were their own. I actually talked more about this in an interview on LowEndBox here: https://lowendbox.com/blog/interview-with-racknerd-ceo-dustin-cisneros-the-importance-of-human-interaction-in-customer-service/

    I agree with you though, support is indeed where many companies fall short. It's why we've invested heavily in building a solid team that can deliver consistent response times. This has helped us maintain our reputation in the industry :)

    I'll buy some fantasy game.

    Got any specific game in mind? Like Elden Ring?

    That sounds good. Will definitely buy the Witcher 4.

    Oh yah, Witcher games are generally good. Not into fantasy games, though. I have been a Naughty Dogs fan for long.

    Witcher 3 is just awesome. Became fan of it, and watched all the web series based on it.

    Missed this comment. Let me quickly sumamrise why I love RackNerd:-
    1. Unbelievably cheap prices, esp. if you are active on the threads. The best part is the prices are recurring.
    2. Quick and professional support. While Dustin would claim a humble 10 minute response time, I have had them complete requests in record times of less than 5 minutes, 3 to be precise. Now, considering point 1, this is not something that you'd expect. As the saying goes, "You get what you pay for." On RackNerd, that doesn't apply, cause you get premium service regardless of whether you won the VPS in a GA, a flash sale, or any other way.
    3. Giving back to the community. As you would have seen from the threads, Dustin spends a huge amount of money every now and then back into the community. He could just ride on the cheap prices and awesome support to get sales. Or, he could spend a good amount on advertising. That would be more than enough. But, he decides to give it back to the community. That's something I absolutely love about them.

    Hi @noob404 -- This means so much to us! Love how you've highlighted our core values - competitive pricing, lightning-fast support, and community focus. It's feedback like this that keeps us motivated to deliver even more value. Thank you for being part of our success story ❤️

    Where's everybody. let's bring the RackNerd Christmas spirit to the thread now!!

    Everyone celebrating the festival I think.

    Makes sense. Got any plans for Christmas?

    No plans. Working currently. :(

    BTW, whatever happened of your Jellyfin plans. Had the time to try it yet?

    Not yet. Those are for NewYear, i will start working on it after 31st.

    Oh ok. Ping me if you face any issues.

    Sure. Are you using it currently?

    Yup. On my Android box. But, planning to get an SSD for it soon.

    SSD will definitely improve the experience. Can your android box handle the streaming

    Oh yes, for that, I use their official clients, which disables transcoding on the Android box. If I do transcode, it's always 100% CPU usage on the Box with constant buffering.

    Ok, so transcoding may not work with the 2 core setup then. They have Android client as well?

    Oh yes, they got official and some unofficial forks with added features, for virtually every OS. here it is https://jellyfin.org/downloads/

    Just realised, they even got one for WebOS. So, if you got a recent LG TV, you are set there as well.

    Nah.. my tv is old VU non smart. Have firestick though.

    They have a Firestick client as well. I use it there. Works as expected.

    firestick is just android.........

    Yup, it is I just meant the official client is available on the FireStick store itself.

    now that's a feat to brag about... :smile:

    It is, Ig. But, a better one is the WebOS client, a few years ago maybe though, cause right now, the OS has a public SDK.

    man i am setting up a DB server on a lsw vps1 seems fine for now let's see how it unfolds :)

    MariaDB?

    A single server for mariadb + postgres, with couple of DBs ranging from 400mb to 1gig

    You already have that much of data? existing project?

    yeah have to move around bunch of stuff and fix some issues with nginx fastcgi

    Postgres seems much more lightweight than PHPMyAdmin. Gotta try it out someday.

    postgrest and mariadb both are different, my use case mostly goes with mariadb postgres for some js stuff where i don't need that much of data unlike mariadb.

    Oh, I used to think Postgres was a PHPMyadmin alternative. Isn't it a client rather than a server?

    yeah postgresql it's a db server :smile:

    Didn't know this. Thank you.

    always happy to help, there are other db servers as well, typically monogodb and postgres are more flexible than mariadb and can scale better for me mariadb is serving just too much of my infra.... don't have time or patience to migrate everything over.

    Me as well. Moved to MariaDB a few years ago from MySQL. Stayed with it, cause it serves my purposes well, and is slightly faster than MySQL in some cases. Will have to try Postgres one of these days.

    you will instantly notice the difference specially since postgres supports much more indexing types than mariadb and of course the scalability....

    Yup. I am also planning to use it for the shop plan I told you before.

    sounds like a plan, i would also suggest leveraging redis or something better for in memory caching, you get better response times.

    I use redis.
