That's it. I'm done with Linode. I will be keeping one server on Linode, but my new startup where I need several load balancers, Web servers, DB replication will be hosted elsewhere.
Do you guys know any good providers? Not AWS.
- laseeey 11y agoCan I ask why not AWS?
- jafingi 11y agoI just don't think the performance is good enough for pure web hosting. Much slower/$ than Linode and DO. Their uptime and infrastructure is great, but you're totally on your own (e.g. if you're getting DDoS'ed). Also their traffic cost is not as easy to predict than DO/Linode/Vultr.
- pfg 11y agoOVH is hard to beat when it comes to raw performance/$. Hardware and network has been quite reliable for me (using SoYouStart and OVH), and their DDoS filter is excellent. I'm not really familiar with their cloud/VPS offering. That being said, they only have one data center in NA at the moment, and they recently suffered a rather nasty network outage in that data center. Would definitely look into them if your target market is primarily EU, but if you're mostly NA-based, YMMV.
