Sharing this bad boy from @HostDoc LA. My first gateway drug into a Ryzen VPS.
As a side note, I’ve been looking for a Ryzen-based VPS since Ryzen was first released. I upgraded my personal PC to Ryzen on day one and it’s been flawless. I wonder why it took so long for them to trickle down to servers. Stability issues?

The issue is the perception that Ryzens are "consumer" CPUs and are somehow inferior or unsuitable as a server. A CPU is a CPU and those who think that Xeons have some magic sauce that makes it superior in performance are just funny people in my opinion.

Things like Epyc platforms do have some benefits for enterprise. People aren't adopting Ryzen in servers simply because they weren't meant for it. Server builders don't do Ryzen, because it's a desktop chip, and most people rely on server builders. The very few people that do it upcharege by a lot because it's a risk and low demand.

I am not sure what is the meaning of "not meant for it" because computing processes on a Ryzen, EPYC, i9 or Xeon are the same. Demand wise, it is subject to change. I can see the demand for AMD in servers going up for varying reasons. I still maintain that intrinsically, there is no functional difference between a desktop chip or a server chip.

Maybe that wasn't the best word, but I mean the manufacturer doesn't create them for servers. Epyc has features Ryzen doesn't. To most people it doesn't matter, only to the companies with the specific use.

Exactly this. AMD knows the market, and the home market has a lower margin and need for faster product churn. The enterprise market has much larger margins for higher priced sku's.
Hardware vendors aren't selling it. Dell/HP/Cisco are the major US players for enterprise servers, and they are not selling Ryzen based servers. For a business, the server gear is generally not a differentiating factor for the business -- they want vendor support, compatibility, and availability of systems.
Major software vendors aren't supporting it. No Ryzen CPU is on the VMware HCL. No support if you, like most businesses, are running VMware.
So if you're building your own business servers, and running a bare metal operating system, or hyperv, or cloudstack, or something not VMware your good so far.
Ryzen also is limited to 128GB of ram. This may seem sufficient, but VMware licenses generally cost more than the server does. If I can get an Epyc server with 512GB ram, vs a Ryzen with 128GB, and my workloads are not CPU bound, I can save $50k in VMware licensing (1 socket vs 4) for an Enterprise+ installation.
The beasts from Bandito and Nexus Bytes Mafia Family cost less than low end atom/i3 dedicated for sure. Not sure why those are even a thing when I see such VPS.

Hard to beat AMD on "value" at this point (performance per dollar), especially the 3900X... which crushes pretty much anything around it.
AMD owns the single-core performance market up and down the list from servers to desktop.
From a building aspect, 3900x is absolutely the best bang for the bucks!

Nice. Upcloud has always made IOPS its selling point relative to its competitors. I have't had the time to bench them, but I feel good knowing they are using prem Intel Golds. Explains why it was so buttery smooth when I was using them for a project.

Sadly yes, but that's to be expected when comparing an Intel Server CPU from 2 years ago and an AMD Consumer CPU
AMD have made incredibly powerful processors recently it seems.
