Top notch shared hosting. Very solid based on my monitoring and not remotely oversold nodes. +1 recommend. Also didn't think I could leave cpanel but direct admin these days is remarkable and every bit as good if not better in other ways.
-
Neat. Would be great if put into excel and then charted ;)
-
The 8gb plans were and are very limited. My guess is is mostly the 2gb and 4gb plans which makes more sense. Additionally it gains traction on the business and gives him more leverage with reliable sites for volume discounting of the dedicated servers. It's frankly a smart way to get rocking.
-
Good note. The cloud backup can be easily managed via rclone but surprised they didn't just integrate rclone themselves into it. If even as a plugin of sorts
-
Not 100% I don't want to have to install a full x environment if it can be avoided but virt manager looks very good! Can it handle the networking as well. Really like the idea of kimchi a lot thanks for the suggestion. Kinda wish it had more development since Jan 2020 but hey it's still definitely active and alive. Proxmox…

I'm definitely up for it. But I don't have much spare time for this and a bit of a write up till probably Aug. Then I have loads of free time for such activities. Really a bit late and pointless considering its till the 7th I know but it's a busy month for me and real work takes priority over fun. Thanks for thinking of me…

As a native speaker I haven't really caught anything in support conversations that lead me to believe their English was poor. Got my VPS yesterday though and so far super impressed. Gonna put it through its paces over the next few days
-
Depends but generally yes for example a tcp port check but you can also do a push via a client
-
Can't say I've had a similar experience. Hetrix for example has 4 free locations and you can set a threshold of 3 before it triggers along with 5× mins of downtime. That basically resolves the vast majority of false positives.
-
Not sure I have the free time currently for this but might in about a month or two. However I love the idea as a lot of reviews for me lack proper network testing. There are many applications and solutions that depend on solid routing to keep things running well. Such as voip for example. In fact many VPS have enough…
-
Feel like anyone not using hetrix or another uptime service isn't getting accurate data. It's remarkable how many shared hosting services for example have 5-10 mins of downtime. Price isn't even always the factor. One of my best uptime shared hosting is the cheapest I've gotten actually while the more expensive established…

I'm sure the provider could go into more detail but here's my analysis at least. That's actually dual CPU so 40 threads. They ran a promo with limited number of dedicated 2core, 4core (thread) options with really minimal pricing between. The 4core option sold out fast so they probably only provisioned very few of those and…
-
It's really a hard offer to pass up. Even with my previous reservations I've picked one up and will be doing some testing soon. Nice blog. I would review a bit differently though. Supposedly those are dedicated cores which isn't mentioned in your review. Additionally a more thorough network test of routing is always…
-
Now that's tasty....
-
Considering his site is down (at least currently) and they've only been around since February 2020 but have many locations. I'm gonna wait and see how it goes in a year then maybe consider them.
-
Example specs are too beefy. People love dedicated cores and resources though. Additionally your right no one wants to manage bare metal and monitor raid for failure or beg a provider to upgrade the hardware. Why not just choop that up? 1 dedicated thread, 4gb ram, 50gb nvme, 1ip, 7-8 pounds a month. Or is there not enough…
-
We can sit here and discuss the scientific faults or shortfalls of the setup all day long. Frankly this is also possible in even the best of scientific research. But this looks like a fun technical test and something uniquely possible to a forum like this. I'm sure enough members can find actual real world applications to…

Basics: * Use random password generator for sign up and save that somewhere * Sign into portals/panel(s) and change the passwords. * Use custom iso if possible to upload the distro of choice or mount the provided distro as CD then use vnc and do a fresh "net" install of the distro. set root passwords to something not…
-
The most important part of this is trusting your provider. There are many low cost solutions which I pass on. Back when I co-located (wasn't cost effective ultimately for my needs) I had the idrac port physically disconnected from the network. I needed Idrac access like once every year or so at most. A low priority ticket…
-
That's actually a great option. The reality is they are weak but they are dedicated and imo a bit more secure than a VPS if you can encrypt the data. With that said I would rather use a single board quad core atom.
-
Nice! How's performance and reliability been with minio? Do you have all the same size drives or mix and match?
-
Interesting. Which data Center location were you using? Also how's minio been treating you? Did you use a cluster in one location or cluster over multiple locations? Or single system stored locally? I have some atom nucs and tempted to try out a 12tb raid 1 setup now that 12tb drives are actually affordable
-
Thanks! I have a single board atom I kinda want to do it with but now running into whether it's cost effective vs a decent deal on a VPS. Feeling like a no. But it's a fun thought
-
Neat! Any others people know about?
-
This is why dedicated servers and colocation are the only sure ways to retain privacy. Affordable options (lowend) are atom dedicated servers (preferably with raid 1) and pi colocation.
-
A storage KVM solution that solution is backed up via crashplan. I know crashplan isn't the best but it's cheap above 2tb.
-
Again though you have to remember the 90 day billing cycle on new data which B2 doesn't have. I believe they bill for day on the day. https://wasabi.com/cloud-storage-pricing/pricing-faqs/#:~:text=With%20Wasabi%20minimum%20storage%20retention,using%20Wasabi's%20RCS%20pricing%20model

These feel like data mining tactics to me personally. $15 for lifetime usage seems unsustainable otherwise.
