Recommended VDS for full CPU usage
Recently I had a discussion with a customer service of a well reviewed company on LET about their VDS service. I was under the assumption that when you rent a VDS, you can use the CPU's fully/100%. Their response was that as long as I wouldn't affect my neighbors it would be fine.
I then asked them to how can I disturb my neighbors when I have a dedicated core and got vague answers. I can understand that if other resources like disk usage or network usage is also high, that can affect neighbors. That's not the case they said, it would only be CPU related.
It's not that I want to mine crypto or something, I just wanted to know how it works when you have longer lasting usage of CPU. They stayed vague and redirected me to their TOS. Dedicated means dedicated right, or am I wrong? Do you understand what there are meaning?
What VDS services do you LET'ers recommend that allow for longer times of 100% CPU usage (hours)?

We (Crunchbits) offer true VDS, you are dedicated a core and both it's threads and you are free to use it 100%. Plans start at $8/m.

@b00n We'd be happy to have you on our cloud platform https://1gservers.com/cloud
https://my.racknode.net/index.php?rp=/store/vd
We are currently out of stock, but plan to restock soon
Name it and shame it.
VDS is dedicated no matter what.
In the meantime, I invoke my affiliated 🦄 where all VDSs are VDSs or they get hosed.
low end dedicated servers are so cheap nowadays it is surely hard to muster the energy to argue semantics and hypervisor overhead and non-trivial noisy neighbour impact with a provider, no?
I have a few VDS's, and the whole "1 core" vs "2 core" stuff is pretty useless without knowing what the processor is. It's like saying "1 bedroom" vs "2 bedroom" in housing ads. It might be 1 bedroom in a shack or a 1 bedroom in a mansion.
I use and would recommend https://my.hosteons.com/store/ryzen-7950x-based-hybrid-dedicated-server (the Ryzen 7950 is FAST) based on my experience.
That's not true
A sly marketing trick
Yor plan start at $14/m
😜
No?

🤣🤣🤣
Are u ok?
Try to buy it 😂😂😂
Yes, perfectly fine. Just because a plan is out of stock it isn't a "sly marketing trick".
https://my.heartbeat-it.com/cart/nl-amd-ryzen-7000-vds/
You get 1 (or more) real Cores of the 16 Cores of an AMD Ryzen™ 9 7950X with us. 100 % CPU Usage allowed.
Starting at 8,99 € per month (+ VAT if you are from the EU)

Yes, it is a sly marketing trick.
Your argument went like this:
Do you realize that there are other humans on earth that also want to buy cheap deals and that could in theory make the plan out of stock?
Go tell that to your grandma and grandpa, they might buy it. But me, as a marketer and just a regular person, I’m calling it straight—this is a marketing gimmick. Same as that flashy 'UNBEATABLE PERFORMANCE' tagline—total BS.
🙂
It's mostly out of stock, but there's always space to add internal orders
I recommend this
for single core cpu performane and high network bandwidth

There are few things here.
a) VDS is not always VDS - you will find providers (mostly 'eastern Europe') that will call VPS a VDS (and you are fucked).
b) You will find providers that don't 'dedicate/pin' a core (thread) to you - you will be put on a server and when theirs hypervisor/monitor decide there is too much noise you (or someone else) will be live migrate to different machine (mostly German providers)- they still call it Dedicated.
c) Most of those VDS comes with "dedicated" CPU, but rest is shared - if you start writting 150MB/s 24/7 on the disk they will be pissed off - so "disturb my neighbors" kinda makes sense.
d) most people here want cheap thing, you can't really have VDS for cheap so... shortcuts and a lot of 'creative marketing' and when people ask about 24/7 100% CPU usage on 7$ per month package there is a big chance that it doesn't cover the electricity cost so they kinda don't want you as a client, but no one gonna tell you "fuck off"
+1 for @crunchbits
I always recommend dedicated vCore with both its Hyperthreads as HTs are not truly independent of each other.
@heartbeat_IT is another recommended provider for VDS
Avoro is not dedicated VDS … it is VPS with unmetered cpu usage permitted.
Hi,
dedicated is dedicated. Thats ( for me ) defined by:
Of course you should make sure that the provider mention somewhere the CPU core, so you have a guaranteed "minimum" of CPU model and this way speed.
Would be bad if they will transfer you freely between servers with good cpu's and slower cpu's.... and would be allowed to do so.
If what you got is not like this, its ( imho ) not dedicated and this way no VDS.
Thanks all for your comments. Any recommendations in Europe and preferably the Netherlands besides @heartbeat_IT?
Dedicated server is dedicated.
Anything else is advertised but not guaranteed.
I don't really like the terminology VDS and VPS; in reality I think if you are offering something like a VDS there should be a separate physical disk for each client so you aren't limited by the IOPs of the other clients.
In the current landscape I find a more ambiguous term like "Performance x86 VM" or "Budget ARM VM" make more sense and people can find out more information about virtualization limitations like IOPs bursts and bitrate within your FAQ, Documentation, or Pricing pages.
On another note I wish there were more providers like Frantech that offered the tiered block storage such that there is no thing as a "Storage VPS" and you can easily move and scale your block devices.
are you hatin on crunchbits just because your free backups didn't work as intended?
I don't think I hate. Guess that's just how you see it. I only hate my ex-girlfriends 😂
