Title: Need a good quality VPS provider
Post by: enmaku on November 06, 2013, 04:14:02 AM
I've been hosting codinginmysleep.com with VPS6.net for a while now and they've traditionally been quite good, but recently their uptime has not left me feeling particularly good about continuing to use their service. I need a new VPS provider and preferably one that accepts Bitcoin. Price is an issue, but this time around I refuse to let it be the main issue - I'm looking for quality here, as close to 100% uptime as I can get and customer service that's actually functional. Recommendations?

It's not a super fancy system, 4 cores, a gig of ram, 50gb hard disk and way more bandwidth than I really ever use (I use about 10 to 20 gigs a month, my provider gives me 2tb). It's not hard at all to find a system with those kind of specs, but I need reliability.

I mean, just look at the crappy uptime I've had the last month or so with VPS6: http://stats.pingdom.com/t6b5ecwa5m6p/639913

That's what's unacceptable. I can't have 97% uptime, that's just not reasonable.

be able to do it for 0.15 a month
CPU is a good intel xeon E3 running at 3.4ghz (non of this poncy weak cpu stuff)
unlimited shared bandwidth
very low 25ms ping to most of the EU
shared ip
and the only downtime iv ever had was during me upgrading the server software

the only real downside is all port forwarding is done manually.
oh and i dont let people mine on it xd got introuble with the data center for that :D

I recommend digital ocean. Even though it is pretty expensive, it is the most reliable and has great tutorials. Please use my referral link on http://hub.nahtnam.com (http://hub.nahtnam.com) in the domajbs/hosting tab, if you are feeling nice. It will help pay for the server and keep my faucet up.

I'm looking into digital ocean now and I like what I'm seeing so far. I wish they offered a custom VPS so I could get the same cores I have on my current system without having to pay for an obscene amount of RAM but I think I can find a package that will work, especially considering that their use of SSDs should lower the number of threads sitting in i/o wait dramatically. I need some more testing to confirm but I think I may have found my new host - thanks nahtnam!
