I know CDN is only for static files, but is there such cloud host service where users from Asia, Europe and USA will face no serious latency issues?
Is this going overboard, would using Amazon Cloud suffice?
or would purchasing dedicated servers in each region like USA, Europe, and Asia be better?
im looking to add failover protection at my main server, in order that if it goes offline, all the traffic can be in a automatic way redirect to a failover / backup server.
For the failover server i was looking to buy a low-cost dedicated server located in other datacenter and have my dns be run at this failover server, but now i have been looking at Cloud Hosting, like Amazon or Mosso CloudServers and as it seems a very stable network, im thinking if it will be best to have setup/running my DNS at a Cloud Host...
So what do you think it would be best:
Option A:
1 main server
1 failover dedicated server
1 cloud (amazon/mosso) virtual server to run DNS
or
Option B:
1 main server
1 failover dedicated server (running the DNS)
I've written an application that acts as a game server for a simple game I'm creating. From what my friends tell me you can't run an exe on a webhost. They did however tell me that you can run java apps on a host that gives ssh access.

I'm in the process of installing PPA on infrastructure running Parallels Cloud Server. Each container has 2 interfaces, one public facing and a private interface for inter-server communication.
No problems installing PPA 11.5 (specifying IP's on commandline) or adding service nodes however, the firewall rules the documentation speaks of are nowhere to be seen? i.e.:
Important: After the installation, PPA creates the special firewall chain PPA-SN-Rules-INPUT used for communication with service nodes. Do not change it, otherwise, you will not be able to add service nodes to PPA.Click to expand...
Has this been dropped from PPA 11.5 ? (I recall seeing the firewall settings in 11.1) There is also no sign of the ppa.firewall tool that is also mentioned.
The only rule I see inserted is for Postgres on the management node, and 2 for pleskd on all of the nodes (open to world!).

Should I just purchase a deicated box from say FDC, and put 5~10 users on it?
Or should I get small vps for each user.

PROBLEM DESCRIPTION
In a costumer panel have a one database MSSQL, and assign to this DB 3 users, but the tab option "Users" don't work fot his costumer and show this error:
Error Javascript:
TypeError: template is null
this.template = template.toString(); in protototype.js 8472831 (lÃÂnea 807)
ACTUAL RESULT
Error Javascript:
TypeError: template is null
this.template = template.toString(); in protototype.js 8472831 (lÃÂnea 807)
EXPECTED RESULT
Show users in the tab users for database.
On my server, users can connect to any database as long as they have the database user and password. This makes it easier to hack any database on the server.
What I want to do is to make the users can only connect to their own databases and not other's.
I tried changing the localhost ip address but it didn't work ( I assume I didn't do it the right way)
am now registered my domain with a local person who's name is ABT in india.. but their service was not good and am planning to change the hosting space to yahoo or other cheap web space provider... how to do it... whether the ABT peoples help with this part...

Its very recommend datacenter in europe.
We are very happy to use giga-international.com services.
Just wanted to stop by and make a quick review for Giga-international.com
I ordered my webhosting package at Giga-international this friday, the account was set up pretty fast and everything seemed great, but my website was offline the whole saturday because of some customer "causing problem" the support said. It took the support a fully 24 hours to get the server running again.
When i wanted to bail out and get another provider they refused to send me a refund, im stuck with Giga-international for year, great!
The server went down again today and thats why i'm writing this review.
We are from Brazil and we've been working with US dedicated servers for 5 years (Staminus, SoftLayer and FDCServers). We are now looking for colocation options to reduce our costs.
Which companies would you recommend that would allow us to by servers directly from them, replace hardware and do upgrades ? (we don't want to ship hardware).
What are the "old" and well known companies that would offer this kind of service with great support ? (we just need hardware/reinstall support but with fast responses on emergencies)
i want to post my experience with giga-international.
A month ago i was looking for a dedicated server to start a gaming community, at first i was looking for something cheap and simple, just for start and check how it was going until i get a better server.
Well, my first server with they was a Pentium 4, i've sent the payment on a saturday so i didn't expect an answer until the monday, and since they say at the website that usually takes 1-3 days to setup the server, i dont care too much about the time.
My surprise was, the monday at 7:52 GMT +1 i receive an email confirming the receipt of the payment, all ok, so i was like, ok, i must wait 3 days.
But no, 2 hours later another mail was at my gmail account with my login data, they had the server up and running in 2 hours when they say in the website that may take 1-3 days to complete the setup, that was a VERY nice start.
Since my gameservers was a huge succes, i have bough the server package with the Core 2 Quad Q6600 and 8GB of ram, same as above, they receive the payment and 2 hours later i was configuring my server.
Actually i host 4 Team Fortress 2 gameservers with 32 slots each, this morning with all the servers full the netgrap was reporting a 1-1.5mb/s continue data transfer rate and the servers running so fine.
The support team was very helpful, when i was thinking to get the quad server they have helped me about the SO choice mainly due the ram.
Also their Windows License offer is awesome, you dont pay the first 3 months of the Windows license, only a little setup fee (14€ for W2008 Web)
I was once a user in here - prior to the hacking that occurred in which the DB got wiped, so was a lurker for the time being and I currently am a registered user of 10+ dedicated servers from 10 different providers in here, so I am definitely NOT someone who registered for 1 dedi and then complained and bitched like a little girl. My threshold of tolerance extends probably most far beyond a lot of people in here and the average of customers for dedicated servers.
I've ones again created a new user - this time for the purpose of giving Giga-International a review. Yes; we mostly hear about bad reviews, but they're definitely BAD news.
So here's the timeline;
I read about their "great" offer on this forum under the Dedicated Server Hosting.
Thought; why not - I'll give the .DE guys a chance (remember I have servers located in .NL & UK) to earn some of my hard-earned $$$.
So after signing up, filling out the blanks & giving the instant payment (like I usually do without considering whether it is worth 129.99 EUR) I wait for my server.
I had previously read that their servers could take a while to get up; surprisingly mine wasn't, so happy I was. This happiness turned out to be short as I discovered their HDD they had supplied me was FAULTY - NOT running @ 7200 RPM for a SATA HDD. I/we (my tech team) contacted Giga-International regarding this matter. They promised they would look into it. So they did, but nothing happened. After NUMEROUS emails of an update of what was going on, it finally got fixed. Time to fix a f*cking HDD: 10 days.
So thought; ok, I'll hope it runs smooth from then on. It did for --7-- days UNTIL they had to "relocate" to a more powerful, fancy, <insert words>, datacenter which would double my routing and speed worldwide to cloud nine. "YAR!". Remember 17 days has now gone by, they relocated, in which they promised MY server would be up within 5-7 hours.
HA! Try 5-7 days instead. So after bugging and bitching like a little schoolgirl that has lost 129.99 EUR for 17 days of downtime in total, my server finally went up again. Prior to the bitching and whining THEY had the AUDACITY to send me billing emails of "risk of suspension - pay within 5 days" bollocks.
17-18 days of downtime, 7 days of "perfect" uptime.
I'm sure I can find alternatives to their service in here which is far from as diabolic as what was offered.
I kindly asked for a discount for the following month (May), but has yet to receive a reply from them.
Conclusion: Giga is quick on the billing and very slow on the support. They may be the biggest provider in Germany, but help me God Germans must be the most patient human beings walking this earth then...While getting ripped off; full price! Their routing is as average; nothing I'd pay 129.99 EUR/mo for a little over a week of uptime.
Final word to Giga: Kindly go do one or fix up and look sharp.
Currently have BurstNet dedicated server which is running flawlessly but i'm looking for a 2nd dedicated server for backup. Anyone use giga-international or superbhosting before?

Anyway ticket has been issued to them and still waiting for reply.
Just curious if anybody else face the same problems as i didn't not play around with my DNS servers at all.
I have a shared hosting plan with giga-international since October 07 – already 8 months.
I’m using it for my web gallery , address book – personal use. Using 1.5 GB and 500 MB transfer per month. I mean – I am very reasonable and not demanding user. I had a several problems with the support. I was not getting upset cause it’s not a business website, but the recent one just turn the page. I don’t thing anybody would like to run his business site in this conditions.
Few facts first:
- No CC payment option, just PayPal even though the FAQ page says there is.
- No other option but annual payment
- There is no such option to use your own domain name – you need to use the free one and add your own for 1 eur /mont additionally
- Never bother to call the phone on the webpage – they are too busy to answer.
- I suspect one man support
- the time for the answer from support is proportional to the complexity of your problem – sometimes you don’t get answer at all.
- I have had a problems almost every month – website not loading, SQL server down,
CPanel errors
- don’t bother to ask for anything complex like SSL certificates, DNS entries or “why my website is down” – you’ll probably will get the support more confused than they are.
What actually turned the page for me was: they were migrating my space from one server to another, they finished in 2 days, but my add-on domains were still pointing to the old location. They fixed it. And this was next, I’ll just copy the correspondence: ....
I see lots of bad reviews of Giga-International.
Is there anyone out there who are happy with their service, and can recommend them?
Or is it all just bad?
I recently purchased a server from them and You will NOT get the same speeds from your server that you will get with their test file server.
Before i bought the server i tested their speeds with the file they gave me at different times of the day for 2 days and it consistently obtained speeds around 70 to 100 kbps. As of right now I only get 35 kbps. I mean i guess its not false advertising as they dont gaurentee their bandwidth but it seems like bad business practice to me.
Also their customer support is very good BEFORE you purchase a server. I complained about the speed and no one has bothered to respond to me.
Its funny though because before i bought the server they replied to my questions on the same day.
I am trying to code a small download manager for my site to help speeds while keeping my files safe from hotlinking but its alot of trouble and I regret not going with another provider. If it doesnt work the way i want its just money down the drain.
I saw some people saying good things about Giga but if you dont want to take a chance with your money go somewhere else.
Are there any out there? I need a personal server which can do VPN protocols and transfer data consistently at 20mbps on a single connection. Preferably a host with good connectivity and fewer hops to Asia where I am located.
View 14 Replies View RelatedI was running a webhosting business, now I'm almost ruined because of Giga International.
I will expose all the details, in order to see how things evolved.
I have purchased dedicated server 3 months ago. After a month, I had flood problems, the server was down for couple minutes, the other day for hours. The support from their site asked for EUR 50 for managed service, which I have paid monthly. Here is their offer of managed service:
Quote:
We are offering a special package, that includes the following services:
- 24/7 Server Monitoring (5 minute interval) with Reboot
- System / hardware optimization
- Software installation and configuration
- Emergency Problem Resolution
- Unlimited admin hours and tickets
- Proactive security patching
- Kernel upgrades
- Ongoing OS / Control Panel updates
- Remote backups
That package is available for the following operating system:
- Redhat, Fedora, CentOS, Debian, Slackware, Gentoo, SuSe, Mandrake
- FreeBSD, OpenBSD, NetBSD, all Windows Operating Systems
- Sun Solaris
This upgrade is called 'Managed Server' and costs a monthly fee of 49.99 EUR.
If you are not able to control the connections to your server by yourself,
than I suggest you to consider getting this upgrade.
EndQuote
After that, the server was up for a month, they modified csf and it was all fine. Last week, someone hacked the server, erased the database completely. I have announced managed service, they didn't had any remote backup, I had to restore from a 3 days old backup all the users and databases. Two days ago someone hacked the server again, erased all the data, server down.
I have contacted them again, I have waited for more than 12 hours, no success, they didn't recovered a thing. Me and my admin, reinstalled all via ssh, uploaded over 50 GB of user files from a remote office backup, and after 16 hours of work and waiting, the server was up again. Today, at the same time: 11 AM, the hacker entered into the server, changed root password, erased home directory and operating system library, making the server unusable. Now, after 9 hours of calling managed service, messaging them with more than 50 emails, the server is still in rescue mode, no one except me and the admin on it, no load, they are all home.
I'm asking: where are the promised services? they never did any remote backup, any verification from 5 to 5 minutes, I have always announce them about problems; where is Emergency problem resolution? Over 120 clients hosted on the server, including my webpage are down for 9 hours, 2 days ago for more than 24 hours, I'm desperated, Giga International doesn't answer to the phone anymore, the server is still in rescue mode without kernel, without boot partition. I have sent them emails, no replies, I'm a beginner in linux but I know how to reinstall an OS and put back the server online, but I cannot do that from a rescue mode, via ssh.
So, maybe someone from giga international will read that and take measures, otherwise I will try my best to notify people about their bad services.
