Serverbeach.com offers for less than $1400 and some like others even for $1000 but TO MY SURPRISE LIMESTONE OFFERS IT FOR A WHOPPING 2K YA $2000 and server beach offers 10mbps unmetered for $80-100 so for $2000 i can buy 150mbps unmetered rather than 100mbps from LIMSTONE means rather than 33000gb i can get 33k+16.5k gb = approx 50,000gb
so i can earn more!
In 3 weeks I'm launching a service that will stream about 5TB of music per day.
I currently use Rackspace Mosso cloud, which can get quite expensive for such massive traffic.
After a talk with my dev team, they told me that the 100mbps dedicated unmetered that some providers like ThePlanet or Rackspace advertise might not guarantee the speed until the end-user. That the speed is guaranteed until just outside their hosting facility or backbone and after that it's just pooled bandwith.
After the recent null route of my server ip by providers datacenter without asking no questions nor informing anyone from VD or myself. I am forced to seek a replacement for a 10 mbps unmetered server used for web proxies.
Suggest me good place which has good business ethics and atleast care to inform their customers of their actions.
no Burst net based resellers or anyone even remotely related to burst!
a remote desktop with unmetered bandwidth, i don't care about space, 500 megs of space would be fine

View 14 Replies View RelatedWhen service providers advertise a dedicated server for lease (or colocation) and they mention 100Mbps port (sometimes uplink port), what are they referring to?
Are they referring to the port speed of the switch that the NIC is attached to?
Or is it the router's port speed where this switch ( which in turn the server's NIC is attached to) is attached to such that no matter what the NIC speed is (e.g. 100Mbps or 1Gbps), the traffic that passes thru the server is capped to 100Mbps?
We currently have a single 100Mpbs (currently pushing ~40Mpbs) feed from a single upstream provider. Routing is handled by our transit provider.
We wish to provide a more resilient setup and are now looking to install our own BGP router(s) and take a second feed from another provider. I have a looked around the Cisco website and this forum but am unsure which model of routers / layer 3 switch we should be looking at.
A layer 3 switch looks more cost effective but doesn't appear to support enough routes for BGP without great expense. Would a 2600 router be enough or should I be looking at something higher like the 7600 series?

View 12 Replies View RelatedI was on the phone with tech support at a datacenter that hosts one of my servers and I asked him as I have all my servers beside this particular one on 100mbps connections about the noticable difference between the speeds as 10mbps is fast to begin with.
I was told that he, from personal experience, never noticed the difference between the two because any computer he accessed his sites/files from never had a connection itself of over 4mbps.
He then went on and said the only people that 100mbps would benefit are people who personally have a computer that has a speed of over 10mbps.
I'm gullable and he was very convincing but does anyone have a better explanation of noticable difference (from the client perspective) between the two speeds?

Due to our bad connectivity in our actual French hosting provider (OVH), we need to search for alternatives.
Please post opinions about other hosting companies that can give same configurations at a reasonable price, if possible with related experience with them.
Actually -from 1 year ago- we have the following configuration at OVH:
1xDBServer: Intel Q6600, 1x250GB, 8GB DDR2, 100Mbps (not real on a daily constant), Wind2K3 STD. : 130eur. + vat
1xWebServer: Intel Core2, 1x160GB, 1GB DDR2, 100Mbps (not real on a daily constant), Win2K3 WEB Ed. : 49eur. + vat
All days we have traffic problems, with low real bandwith connection, also with poor pings to/from Spain (where most percentatge of our users come).
We need to find a hosting provider with a same or a litle best configuration with the follow requisits:
-100Mbps per server [If possible, 100Mbps dedicated (non shared, without aggregation ratio)], UNMETTERED.
-IMPORTANT: Good bandwith connectivity
-Preferable Datacenter hosted in Europe
-WebServer same config, but 2GB DDR (also can be an AMD), if possible with W2K8 WebEd.
-DatabaseServer same config. preferable with 16GB DDR, also preferable -optional- with 2x or 3xSAS 15K. (RAID 1 or Raid 5)
-Possible upgrades (specially beacuse OVH is the first to launch a server with Intel 25GB SSL drives that are superfaster (look at ovh.fr for model HG2009). Any other has support or previsions to serve SSL Drives?)
-If possible, with X days break of contract agreement (money back guaranteed)
We can pay some more at a month, but on the first months we can't pay more than around 500$/Euros.
I've been happily hosted in Equinix Ashburn for over a year now, so I haven't been looking into price changes over the past months. However, my colo provider suddenly decided to raise prices by 20% on me, saying that space and bandwidth has become scarce over the past year and their own cost went up by 75%. So they are asking me to lock the new hiked price by signing a new contract, otherwise I won't be able to get such offer from them or any other provider in that location.
Before signing anything, I'm trying to get a feel of the current prices. I see a lot of ads in here for same bw and space, but I'm sure there are variations in the level of service they provide, depending on the colo company, location, bw providers, package type, etc... So, just as crude estimate, can you please tell in general whether prices/costs has went up or down or stayed the same since last year, and by how much?
And if someone has experience with Equinix/Ashburn, what would be a reasonable price for a dedicated 100Mbps/4U colocation with a quality bandwidth provider?
Anybody have a good sales rep I can use from Level3 for a great price on 100mbps commit?

I've tried three budget companies this month already.
dmehosting ~ 20mbps,

Is there any webhosting company that could provide me a budget proxy? I have already asked DTH and they told me they dont provide such service
Will be having 4 users ( 1 or 2 most of the times) at most and no weird use will be made.
I live in the UK and have a budget of £150, so say, $300 to spend on hardware for colocating my server.
I already have a 1U Queenserv Chassis with 280w PSU & rails.
I also have 2 SATA drives so i wont need to buy Hard Drives.
What i need is:
- A motherboard
- A CPU
- At least 2GB RAM
Anyway what would be the best hardware to buy on my tight budget?
I'm considering moving from free to budget hosting. The maximum I would be able to pay would be $5 per month, and I don't really like the idea of a contract over 2 years.
I've been looking around, and it seems like 1 and 1 has the best deal. They allow unlimited domains, which is good as I plan on trying to host quite a few sites off one account. They also offer 10 MySQL db's. This is what i'm mainly concerned about, as most of my sites use 1-3 db's.
Does anyone have anything to say about 1&1? Or any other budget host recommendations?
Is 100Mbps a lot better (10 times?) than 10Mbps uplink?
What does 100Mbps mean? 100M bits per second right? So 10M bytes per second, inclusive of both download and upload?
i'm trying to look for a reliable server host where i need 1 Xeon server with a dedicated 100Mbps private bandwidth, can anyone advice or provide some kind of price quote so that i know what kinda range i'm looking at? i got sth from burstnet which is around 1300$/month for 100Mbps private.
View 3 Replies View RelatedI have a few small VPS accounts (think 64MB memory, low disk etc). I usually pay around $10/month and everyone seems to use HyperVM with XEN/OpenVZ. I've pretty much had it with issues with HyperVM mainly and I want to move back to Virtuozzo.
I used to be with Future Hosting but I see their lowest price is $20/month for their lowest 32bit packages. Are there any others that are cheaper? Not looking for crazy specs, management or a particular country. These are just test beds.
building a SeedBox with a $35,000 USD Budget
how to build one of these bad boys. While staying under my budget.
I want to build a top of the line SeedBox that can handle 100 users. I need help on what kind of software and hardware I need with prices. I want this to be able to hold a 10Gbits line. (Or 10 1Gbits lines) And security stuff I need like firewall or virus scanner stuff. And Back-Up type stuff like in case of a HD Crash. And how to get 100 different IP addresses.
I've been a customer of Budget VPS Hosting for about 10 months now and figured it was about time I wrote a review
I signed up initially for B-VPS's 111 package (CPU 100MHZ HD 10GB RAM 100MB BW 100GB PORT 100mbps, 100KB/s Uplink). There was a major fiasco with my Paypal account, which resulted in the payment eventually being treated as "spurious" and B-VPS being asked to refund the amount!
Despite this, Jon who handles support at B-VPS was very patient and agreed to help me get a 2nd VPS to work with (even with the 1st one still not paid!). I've since upgraded this server to a VPS333 account and in January this year, I signed up for a 2nd server with B-VPS
Pro's:
- Great support! I'm based in Asia, so timezones work against me. Despite that, I can usually expect a response with 12 hours of opening a ticket. Some problems took a very long time to resolve (I'm looking at you OpenVZ) but Jon stuck with me on figuring out the source of the problem.
Regarding provisoning of the VPS, I got my login details within a hour of putting in the order for both my orders
- Pricing: The VPS111 package costs just 5 USD/month and is more than enough to run some low-volume websites. Heck, with some careful tweaking you could even run a CMS on that.
-Bandwidth: I get very good speeds when running package installs from the server. My East Coast VPS (600K uplink) has a public speedtest page for folks who'd like to check this out from themselves: http://torbox.theaveragegeek.com/speedtest/
Cons:
-Uptime: To be honest, Uptime has been a bit of a mixed bag. My central DC VPS (Limestone hosted) has had some pretty significant outages, where the host node is completely offline for upto 4 hours. The East Coast VPS (Burstnet) has had no issues so far though.
-CPU & RAM: Budget VPS does not offer Burst CPU or RAM. This can be a tad frustrating especially if you need a little extra RAM/CPU for installing packages but not otherwise. I'm not going to debate this (at B-VPS's prices, I've been able to afford the beefier package that allows me to do both ) but you should keep this in mind.
Well that's the review. I highly recommend B-VPS if you are looking to host a low-usage VPS cheaply and quickly!
I run a site that has a medium sized forum (23,000 members; 350,000 posts), about 1000 pages of content (but not heavily viewed), and some relatively un-resource-intensive features. We have one feature that is a bit stressful on the database side of things, but nothing too extraordinary.
I'm looking to migrate from our current dedicated server at LunarPages to another alternative. LP has been great to us, and I would recommend them to anyone, I just feel like we can get a similar server for slightly less somewhere else.
We are paying $165/mo for these specs:
- Intel Pentium 4 2.8ghz
- 2 GB RAM
- 160 GB Storage
- 1500 GB Bandwidth
- cPanel
I would like to shoot for something more like this:
- Something better than a P4... open for suggestions, but I'm pretty greedy in terms of processors, I'd like something pretty nice.
- 1 GB RAM should be fine
- 100 GB Storage or more
- 1000 GB Bandwidth or more
- cPanel
- Less than $150 total
So not too many major changes I suppose... and maybe I'm being too greedy. I've found some offers I like the looks of, but I need some suggestions. Companies with good customer support are always preferable as well, of course.
We're building out a small setup for a client, and we're wondering what's a recommended L3 switch on a budget?
Basically, we're going to be colocating in a rack with about 12 servers & a 100 mbps drop, and won't really be doing any major bandwidth (less than 10 mbps).
The datacenter was saying something about a /30 handoff for the C class of IPs they're going to be allocating to us. They also said they will NOT handle any Vlans for us, and will just basically handoff the IPs and we will need to route to them and do our own vlans.
One thing we need to be able to do is route additional IPs to servers if a client orders them. We were recommended a 3550-24-EMI by a friend, it seems old but if it does the trick, it works. One thing I was reading about it though was PVlans and the 3550 not supporting them. I don't think we'd need PVlans in our setup, just basic 1 vlan per client.
Now i've been looking at a LOT of servers in the past few weeks, many many sites.
I've seen a LOT of CELERON 2.4 GHZ being unloaded
BUT what about the AMD Semprons?
Who would rule over?
Whats the min Sempron that would rule over an Intel 2.4ghz?
Assuming both 1 GB RAM
I would like to build two servers. I have a budget of $15,000 to build one (1) database and one (1) web server. These servers would have to be very very powerful and have the best hardware money can buy but remain within the budget.

I'm in the market to purchase a handful of dedicated servers here in the next few months. I'm looking for the most "bang for the buck". And preferably don't want to pay more than $700 - $800/server/month. I stumbled onto 10tb, I've been doing a little bit of research, and so far have not found any negative reviews other then people trying to user their vps servers from outside the US and expecting 1Gbps speeds.
Anyway, I digress, their price tags are definitely in my price range. About $638 for an 8core server 2.26Ghz 12GB ram 2x250hdd, 100mbps unmetered. Best deal I've seen yet.
So far I like what I see with 10TB but i want to verify that I can expect to get the results I need. I've talked to support and they say it is dedicated bandwidth which means I can burst into 100mbps for long periods of time. I care about this more than anything. Most of these servers are going to need that connection, and I expect to max it out quite often. We plan on launching several game servers so bandwidth is definitely a necessity.
I will also be hosting our web-servers as well and will be looking to deploy load balancing when the time comes. So I would also like the ability have these servers in a private vlan.
Are there any 10TB customers out there using their 100Mbps unmetered plans with heavy loads? I know soft-layer has an amazing network. I just want to make sure this is dedicated bandwidth and I can loadup the port for days if needed. Without experiencing problems, server being shutdown, or extra fees coming into play.
I can probably expect to be at a normal load of about 60% or more bandwidth usage per server.
10TB really stands out to me because its on soft-layers network, and they have 3 different locations I can locate these servers. Which since we'll be deploying game servers is great to ensure low pings to all our clients.
I am open to looking at other hosts as long as they can provide me with the above requirements. I'm very interested in what 10TB costumers have to say.
