Exotic Locations

What are some very exotic/rare locations you have seen Dedicated Servers and VPS being offered? Or do yourself?

    I have a VPS/server in Ecuador, I think it's a bit strange around here to offer some Latam infrastructure.

    are you the provider for that or could you share :)

    I once got invited to test some VPSs in Uruguay (IIRC) and Kazachstan.

    But AFAIK @zGato has or has had VPSs in far more exotic locations ... (which is why I tagged him).

    I'm about to bring (to Ecuador) some Supermicro servers because I don't have any dedicated servers in stock right now, and I'm also adding Colocation to my whmcs these days.

    Many people confuse it with Afghanistan, but this is not accurate.

    I currently have VPS servers in:

    That's what I would consider exotic and can confirm the providers actually offer good services there.

    There are also other "exotic" locations on my radar (not verified):

    @alexhost said:

    Not really exotic - i could name a lot of providers having servers there.

    Avenacloud, Alexhost (you), Ava, MivoCloud, cockbox.
    Also having 4 of those companies on LET doesn't really make an impression of exotic location.

    i have access to a vps in Turkmenistan. To get one it's required to personally go to the provider's office, be a registered individual entrepreneur and have documents which say that last 3 generations of your family weren't criminals. it's a necessity for me because i administer a website for turkmenistan and most foreign hostings/cdns are banned there (i was using gcore cdn before, but they banned their ips and also banned my domain name, it's almost impossible to get it unbanned so i had to buy a new domain and switch to local vps). the vps has the same stupid internet censorship as home internet in turkmenistan, it means that almost everything is blocked (e.g. docker is fully blocked, let's encrypt is partially blocked and i can only renew certs but not issue new ones, some apt packages like openvpn are also blocked by http dpi), im working on it from another country and my ip was banned from accessing the vps multiple times, it's a pain to work with and there is a chance of losing it permanently if they suspect anything (they hate vpn servers for example)

    Is the Russian language causing a strange attitude? A misconception. The most stable companies that have been operating for many years.

    I've been using it for several months without any problems.

    i mean i havent had issue with kvmka and such either and i dont really care but it jus seemed like, i always wonder how those providers get all that money

  • sh97sh97 Member, Host Rep

    Would like to see some Hosting providers in the middle east, and south America. Places like Tajikistan would also be rare af, but I've been there, and the infra sucks, most homes are still stuck on 5-10Mbps lines.

    I've got a VM in Vladivostok, Russia East (near china korea border), which I think is the most exotic location I have.

    Checkout @zGato 's list tho, got quite a few exotic places.

    And I just so happen to know that both the disk is (very) fast and the connectivity to Europe is very decent as well ... *hint, hint
