As a VPS customer, are you more likely to spend slightly more on a provider providing the same specs but Virtuozzo instead of HyperVM? Why or why not? I'd love to hear some people's opinions on the matter, as I know people are very divided as to whether Virtuozzo is better than HyperVM or not.
View 10 RepliesIs 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?
if the physical location of the hosting company's server makes any difference to search engine rankings (especially Google)?
The reason I ask is that I have been running a successful site, targeted at potential customers in the USA. About a year ago, I moved to a different hosting company, which happened to be in Canada. At that point, my traffic dropped by about 50%.
I'm now thinking of moving the site back to a US-based host, but, before I do, I'd welcome your opinions on whether this would be worthwhile.
I looked all over the web.....well google like 5-6 pages and found the answer but I am not sure I understand.
What is the difference from having [url]and [url]?
does it make a difference to the web user, is it a server thing.
I'm curious. I have read some stuff recently about Amazon, Mosso and other clouds. I know Mosso has switched over to a request based pricing model and I realized that I am not sure exactly what a 'request' is.
I think that a hit, as tallied by AWStats, Webalizer, etc. would be the same thing as a request, but I wasn't 100% sure if that was the case with Mosso. I actually contacted Mosso support (someone I know is considering using them) to ask them for clarification on a request. They stated that a page with two images would be three requests, one for each image and one for the page itself. I asked if it was the same as 'hits' and they said no, it isn't. This didn't sound right to me, because my understanding of 'hits' is the same as how he described 'requests'.
So, I figured I would just ask the experts on WHT.
I am looking to purchase either a VPS1024 or Hybrid1 server from WiredTree this Friday.
The purpose of the server is to house a fairly active phpBB3 forum (10,000 registered members with around 100 members online at any one time). Now what is the benefit of going for the more expensive Hybrid1 ($99 with coupon) compared to the VPS1024 ($71.20 with coupon) - thats almost a $30 difference in price?
In layman terms - am I going to get a greater benefit with the Hybrid1 over the VPS1024?

I ask because I upgraded my server (again) today. I went from 256 RAM, to 512, now to 1024 of RAM. Is 1 gig of RAM good?
Also, I want to know in general if I am getting a good deal here
I have a VPS now with these specs:
Dedicated RAM: 1024 MB
Burstable RAM: 4096 MB
RAID 10 Disk Space: 100 GB
FREE Backup Space: 100 GB
Premium Bandwidth: 4000 GB
Dedicated IP Address: 2

does that seem like a good deal to you?

Should a site on this server run fast, if it is a high traffic "tube" site?
I have a partition /dev/sda2 which is mounted to /webroot.
Today, I find that I can't upload any files via IPB (running on lighttpd)
So, as usual, I went on SSH and tried df in order to see how much space is left on the server:
Filesystem 1K-blocks Used Available Use% Mounted on
<deleted>
/dev/sda2 20641788 19483292 109856 100% /webroot
Since lighttpd is running inside chroot, I thought it was the log files but even after I deleted them, it is still at 100% usage.
After spending some time, I couldn't find any large files so I did du -hs to see which folder is using large amount of space.
web1:/webroot# du -hs /webroot
2.2G /webroot
I'm without a clue on this as what du -hs is telling me and df is different but it seems like the partition is really full.
Any ideas?

you can get really cheap ones, like $20/year, but you can also get really expensive ones, I've seen over 1k per year.
What is the difference between these? Right now I just use self signed but eventually I'll probably want to get a "real" one to suppress all the warnings. (newer browsers are bad for that, they make it look like the site is down, to a typical user).
SoftLayer recently added TW Cable to their BGP mix. However, it is Time Warner Cable, while the ones I usually see is TW Telecom.

Is it the company's reputation that becomes a deciding factor for this? What if the company is new and they boast that there servers are not so populated therefore possibly better performance?

I wanna know Difference Between Managed & Unmanaged VPS
what is the type of management is it.
presently I have hosted my site on a shared hosting platform. I would like to know if it would be a wise decision to move away from shared to VPS.
My site is hosted on "Compaq ProLiant ML370 G3 Xeon 3.20GHz/2MB Cache, 2GB DDR RAM, 146GB UltraSCSI Hard Drive" which is shared.
Now if i move to VPS with the following specs,
Disk Space = 6 GB
Monthly Transfer = 100 GB
RAM (upgradable) = 128 MB
Backup Space = 3 GB
IPs= 1
Monthly Price= $9.99
I am playing $10 monthly for my shared hosting account.
The above specs for a VPS if from buyaVPS.com
I am concerned about the RAM, would 128 MB be enough to run a couple of sites.
or would it affect the speed of my site as compared to the shared hosting account setup.
