[New Provider] K.N Cloud — Hourly KVM VPS in Miami, Frankfurt & Amsterdam from $4.99/730h

koanodekoanode Member, Patron Provider

Hello LET,

I am Tony from K.N Cloud.

We are a new VPS provider operated by World Creation Technology Limited. Our first locations are Miami, Frankfurt and Amsterdam.

We are starting small. The goal is to keep the service stable, handle support properly, and grow step by step instead of overselling from the beginning.

Website:
https://koanode.com

Company:
World Creation Technology Limited

Brand:
K.N Cloud

Virtualization:
KVM

Billing:
Usage-based hourly billing. For comparison, 730 hours is treated as one month. No long-term prepayment is required.

Locations:

  • US-MIA: Miami, United States
  • DE-FRA: Frankfurt, Germany
  • NL-AMS: Amsterdam, Netherlands

Test IPs:

  • US-MIA: 64.81.171.254
  • DE-FRA: 179.61.225.254
  • NL-AMS: 179.61.241.254

The test IPs are for ping and traceroute only. Please do not use them for bandwidth stress testing.

LowEndTalk launch allocation:

For the first 10 LowEndTalk users in total, we will manually upgrade the Lite VPS from 1 GB RAM to 2 GB RAM at the same $4.99 / 730h price.

The upgraded allocation will be:

LowEndTalk allocation — $4.99 / 730h

  • 1 vCPU
  • 2 GB RAM
  • 20 GB SSD
  • 1 IPv4
  • 2 TB monthly outbound transfer
  • KVM virtualization
  • Available in Miami, Frankfurt and Amsterdam

This allocation is shared across all three locations: Miami, Frankfurt and Amsterdam. It is not 10 per location.

After the first 10 orders, the regular Lite VPS remains 1 GB RAM.

To order the LowEndTalk allocation, please register here:
https://koanode.com/register

After registration, email verification and login, choose your location and Lite VPS plan in the K.N control panel.

Please mention “LowEndTalk launch allocation” in your support request after ordering so we can apply the manual 2 GB RAM upgrade.

  • Is it hard to post the hardware you are using?!

    Are you selling Kimi K3 API keys? The logo seems similar to theirs. No offense 😅

    Btw, I wanted to ask one question since you’re a new provider. If these are hourly limits, and I use 2 TB in around 4 hours 27 minutes (which is approximately how long it takes to transfer 2 TB over a 1 Gbps connection), and continue at that rate throughout the month, how would that work?

    Per 30-day month = 324 TB
    

    I mean, is that okay? Because that’s quite a lot of usage for a new provider, especially if I’m running many instances.

    The website has a Chinese version and payment uses Alipay. Are you a merchant from China?

    Quick follow-up — does "outbound" here mean traffic leaving the VPS in general (e.g., to my own client connecting through it), or specifically traffic to third-party destinations? Asking because for a typical proxy/VPN use case, most of the data volume is the VPS sending traffic back to the connecting client, and I want to make sure that counts correctly against the pool.

    Hi Tony,

    Tried to register and order the Lite VPS for the LowEndTalk launch allocation. During checkout the panel just hung on the payment step — no approval, no decline, no confirmation, nothing. I ended up retrying several times because of that. Stripe still charged my card four separate times ($5.00 each) in the background, but the panel kept showing "Failed to create instance — Complete a successful payment before creating cloud resources," so no VPS was ever provisioned.

    Could you check the payment status on your end? Right now I've been charged $20 total with nothing to show for it, and the panel gave me no feedback during the actual payment process to explain why. Please advise how to get this resolved and refunded if the account can't be provisioned properly.

    Thanks.

    Hi user0990,

    Thanks for providing the transaction details. We can see the KOANODE transaction notifications from your bank.

    We have also identified that some recent payments are currently shown as pending in our system. Our finance team will complete the Stripe and account reconciliation on Monday.

    Please do not retry the payment for now. We will check the final status of each payment and either credit any captured payment correctly or arrange a refund if no service was provisioned.

    Sorry for the inconvenience, and thank you for bringing this to our attention.

    Hi,

    Yes. “Outbound” means traffic sent from the VPS to any external destination, including traffic sent back to your own connected client.

    For a proxy or VPN workload, data sent from the VPS to the connecting client is also outbound and counts toward the applicable regional pool. It is not limited to traffic sent to third-party destinations.

    Inbound traffic to the VPS is free.

    Please also ensure that any proxy or VPN use complies with our Acceptable Use Policy.

    @koanode 324TB × 10 = 3,240TB, want to verify if that's okay. It's for an online video transmitting service, not file hosting. It just gets info from the main server, processed changed pixels, then uses other children servers ( servers from you ) to transmit them without overloading. For now it's just a private usage one, but it'll at least use about 10 petabytes. :)

    Thanks for clarifying the use case.

    The Lite plan includes 2 TB of monthly outbound transfer per instance. The traffic volume you described — approximately 324 TB per instance per month, or about 3.24 PB for 10 instances — is far beyond the public Lite plan and is not covered by this offer.

    We cannot approve or guarantee a 10 PB video transmission workload through the standard VPS offer. It would require a separate capacity, network, abuse, and commercial review, with dedicated terms if feasible.

    Please do not place this workload under the Lite plan.

    thanks. i never meant the lite plan btw. if the hourly option means we get to use the resources during that hour for the hourly price, that’s what i was asking.

    as for the architecture, there’s one main dedicated server managing everything. it splits the frames across a bunch of small vps instances, with each vps processing one frame in parallel instead of one server doing the whole sequence one by one. once a vps finishes its frame, it sends the result back to the main host. the main host handles the distribution, ordering, and reassembly, then the child servers handle sending the processed output onward.

    it’s basically a distributed parallel pipeline. that’s why the 3.24 PB :)

    @hhhh8uq8

    Yes. K.N Cloud is operated by World Creation Technology Limited. We serve customers internationally, with VPS locations in Miami, Frankfurt and Amsterdam. We provide a Chinese version and accept Alipay to make the service more accessible to Chinese-speaking customers.

    Thanks for clarifying the architecture.

    I also noticed that some payments today may not have been processed correctly. Because payment integrity is important, I’m going to prioritize investigating and resolving the payment issue before discussing the high-volume deployment further.

    I’ll follow up once the payment flow has been fully checked.
