Do you have some specific providers you were interested in having connected?
- toomuchtodo 9y ago> Do you have some specific providers you were interested in having connected? Not off hand, but lots of colleagues in hosting, exchange fabrics, SaaS products, etc and I want to be able to recommend a partnership to them whenever a good fit appears.
- budmang 9y agoExcellent. We just created this Google Form to add/recommend partners: https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSdObw8HKH4uDexOg-flMbnOKTb47I5aiXEztt1dDSP3t3_r-A/viewform https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSdObw8HKH4uDexOg-fl...
- prolepunk 9y agoI've been using b2 and linode and I would benefit from having those two services connected :)
- budmang 9y agoGreat - we'll try to connect with them.
- lukeqsee 9y agoI can second this. We run significant bandwidth from you guys to Linode, and this would help immensely in a few of our applications. We also use Digital Ocean, so they'd be our second choice; however, I doubt they'll be willing to integrate with a direct competitor to their Spaces product.
- budmang 9y agoI guess we can explore with DO, but certainly will with Linode.
- codingminds 9y agoWhen your European region exists: I'd love to see Hetzner(.com) connected.
- budmang 9y agoLooks like they're in Germany/Finland. We'll try.
- dx034 9y agoJust to second that. Hetzner has a great product in Europe for compute but they lack simple storage options. Connecting both would be great.
- chx 9y agoBe still my beating heart. Seriously? I would drop my Hetzner storage boxes in a heartbeat if I could connect to you instead on a fast link. I have, through the years, have used their auctions to snatch quite a few SSD only boxes and so I need external mass storage their network storage offer is ... ahem ... not the fastest! I would welcome something better :)
- lars_francke 9y agoI'll second what the others have said. Especially their new Hetzner Cloud would be a perfect fit. It's one of the cheapest (if not the cheapest) cloud option I could find. Combining that with your B2 storage would be a perfect match. And the best thing: They don't only focus on price but the quality is great as well. And for us being a german/european provider is a bonus (GDPR).
- timc3 9y agoYeah Hetzner would be awesome. We already run some stuff over there so I could foresee spinning up some transcoders if you have connectivity there.
- deadlyllama 9y agoVultr would be great!
