Just purchased a year of object storage, thanks for the awesome deal. Can you share what the underlying system is? Garage/minio/etc.
it will be GA in the next few weeks
we use Ceph
Cool! Also any new locations planned for S3?
Amazing S3 upload speed, managed just over 200MiB/s moving large backups!
@onidel Are there plans to add S3 management to your API?
not at the moment. you have any location in mind?
what is the use case? it can be added fairly quickly.
finding a backdoor to give myself 2.50/tb usage based
IaC provisioning/management of object storage services for separate environments. Don't have a need for it at the moment, just curious since I didn't see anything S3 related in the API docs.
US and/or EU would be nice. The two current locations (SG/AU) are far away from most of my servers.
Time to start using 1TB (...or 2TB)
the end of sale is nigh
Its showing 48 .. and today is 03 Feb .. So still within 24 hours ?
Is there a coupon I missed ?
It's already 4 Feb in Australia (Onidel HQ).
Luv Onidel 4 Lyfe.
Moving my backups from Singapore to Sydney. Based on the test download links, the more local service should be pretty sweet.

It should be valid till its 03 Feb around the world..
I miss this deal too, It should have been running little longer as per UTC time...
Even if you slept for 8 hours, you still had a 16-hour window.
FFS - I knew about the second fault, but not about the third one. I’m gonna have to find an ISP that has Telstra then as they’re the only ones that have a decent route to Australia at the moment.
FWIW I just (finally) purchased an @onidel VPS and plan to use it as a reference server if it's as good as my former benchmarks indicated - and it indeed seems to really be that good. I just saw close to adapter speed to another SGP target (989 Mb/s).
YAY!
Et voilà, here's the benchmark:
Here's the benchmark results of my new @onidel reference VPS, based on a bit over 25 runs.
In case it helps them to sell even more I don't mind at all.
Short version of sysinfo: the usual but with a Xeon Gold 6242 processor, all interesting flags available. Processor (single core) & memory results:
Nice results. Not that I care much (with a SGP VPS), but really nice. Also note the Epyc territory crypto results!
On to the disk which I care a bit more about ...
Yay, nothing at all to complain about here as well. 50 MB/s and very solidly above 10k IOps is good enough even for DB use.
Finally on to the test I really care about with a Singapore VPS, connectivity.
Europe - not great from a european perspective but actually quite decent from SGP. All major targets about 70 Mb/s isn't bad at all.
Asia / Oceania - here I expect good results - and onidel delivers. For a start even 2 out of 3 Iran targets were reached; yes 20 Mb/s looks crappy but currently getting anything from a server in IR at all is worth to write home about.
Now to the fully working targets. India way above 150 Mb/s is decent, and so is Hongkong with well above 300 Mb/s. SGP even (almost) fully uses/fills the 1 Gb/s pipe and multiple CN targets above 100 Mb/s and one even comparable to IN results is really great. MY well over 600 Mb/s is decent as well and so is JP with well over 150 Mb/s. Down to Ozzyland with a bit under 70 Mb/s is disappointing though, but at least the secondary targets achieved similar results.
All in all I think this onidel VPS was a good choice for a reference VPS. I'm happy (but hope that connectivity to Straya gets restored fully soon ...).
Africa - not great but good enough to occasionally download a not too big file.
Americas - OK, I guess, after all the whole Pacific and then some need to be crossed over. The west coast results are a bit better but still not great.
Btw. almost all secondary targets were reached as well.
Summary/verdict: Sadly the 50% off promo is over, but for that price this VPS truly is a great deal! Probably even for the normal price, at least for people who need good quality and performance more than a super-low price.
Albeit with that caveat, I recommend Onidel's Asia/Oceania VPSs.
Pleased to let everyone know that Indigo West is now live again.
GSL also started using ASC
