Is The VPS Market Saturated
Oct 6, 2009
Do you think there are already enough Hosts in the VPS industry in particular and overall Hosting industry in general?
Just wanted to know the experts' opinion, because I can see thousands and thousands of web hosting companies online.

Anyone else having this annoying spam?
Since we changed domain and added hosting at the end we didn't go for privacy with our information. Now for the last 2 weeks I have received an average of about 7 phone calls asking me to advertise our web design company and if I would like cheaper call plans for my phone to which I reply we don't do web design..
I ask "how did you aquire our information?"
Replies "you don't want to advertise / cheap calls?"
I reply "can you answer me first please?"
there reply "goodbye" or words to that affect.
Now if i'm not mistaken is there some companies selling our whois information as market research?

In your opinion do you believe there is a market for a very high end VPS solution?
Something like:
Equal Share CPU (3.0GHz)
3GB Ram reserved
8GB burst
250GB storage (15K drives)
3000GB bandwidth transfer
The thing that makes this “Ultra Premium” would be the host server resource guarantee.
Host server would be undersold in memory, making the possibility of burst memory availability very high.
Max of 8 shares, no host server would ever run more than 8VMs
Each VM would have an affinity for a particular CPU core, at a 1:1 ratio.
All resources are allocated from the beginning.
Host server spec’s would read something like this
2 x 3.0 5450 Xeon
32GB Fully Buffered memory
6x Seagate 15K 450 SAS drives in RAID5 array.
Gigabit uplink

I see people suggest West coast for Asia market, East coast for EU market. But I wonder how good it is when using West coast for EU market? We don't have money to colo in both coasts. Seattle is my choice for colo'ing,

I've been collecting quotes from various colo providers for 1 full cabinet in Virginia. I've been surprised at how much power costs these days, but I also understand power is in short supply.
One quote I got raised a question though. For a Class C (non-portable) IP address space, they want $256/month (so I guess that's $1 per IP). Their other pricing seems in line with the other quotes I have received, but no other place wants to charge for IP addresses like that. Is $256/month for a Class C considered normal market rate?
Does that reflect their costs? Are they paying a price per month upstream for IPs?

I couldn't find any info on it so I thought I would ask. Does Apple have any sort of market share for production web servers? Or any other types of servers?

I just looked at netcraft and was surprised to see apache's market share down to 50%. Last time I looked in 2005 it was at 70% and climbing. You can clearly see that Microsoft and Apache are a near perfect reflection of each other.
So why is everyone going to Windows servers now?

hosts with more than five years in the market without sound negative reviews here?
I could not find any negative review about Futurequest and Downtownhost but there must be more.
