Los Angeles KVM VPS
Hey,
Looking for a Los Angeles or nearby KVM VPS for my offload PostgreSQL instance. The application server is located in Colocrossing LA.
The below spec is an estimate, your input is appreciated 
.
CPU: 2 or more
RAM: 8 or more GB
Disk: 150GB NVMe (since my current Mastodon DB is ~50GB)
Network: Dual Stack (IPv4 + IPv6)
Bandwidth: 1TB or more
Budget: less than $100 / year
Let me know what you have. Thanks!

Shoot us a dm!
(We don't have IPv6)
@yoursunny
Dang it, not the no IPv6 list
Can you not get such a server at Colocrossing?
I would strongly recommend having a database server in the same datacenter as your application server.
Yeah, so that in case of disaster/outage everything should be offline at once. YOLO.
I think this is the closest?
6 Shared Intel Xeon CPU Cores
16GB ECC RAM
140GB NVMe
12TB Bandwidth @ 10Gbps Port
1 IPv4 IP
/64 of IPv6

Not quite sure I understood you, or that you understood me.
Application server and database are both required for functionality under most models. Having these servers separate increases chances of failure. Having them on separate servers + datacenters increases chances of failure even more.
I understand why you might want them separate, but if they must be, having them in the same datacenter will lower chances of failure over a design where the two necessary components are in different datacenters.
Now if you wanted to improve reliability, at the risk of complexity, you could have a separate datacenter with a slave, readonly database, and an application server. Or you could do master-master. Either of these raises the technicality of the setup and can be more delicate solely due to that, and/or the human element. But theoretically would be more reliable.
Hi,
Not sure if this would fit, Melbicom has VPS in LA for €93,60/year with these specs:
CPU 2 core
RAM 4GB
Storage 40GB
Bandwidth up to 1 Gbps. If the monthly quota 5TB is exceeded, the throughput is reduced to 100 Mbps
Data transfer Unmetered

Hey @slowservers, your suggestion makes perfect sense. I'll reach out to Colocrossing and see if they have any cheap VPS plans w/ larger drive but not $19.50/mo lol.
Currently eyeing their 12GB RAM, 100 GB SSD, 6 vCPU, 40 TB BW, 1 GBPS for $59.99 /yr plan but the drive is slightly small.
My server with them is a dedi and DB is quite r/w heavy, so I would not want to have a failed drive and broke everything (assuming with VPS they'll have some disk redundancy of the master node).
Appreciate everyone's help!
@DediRock maybe?
