Does Prgmr have easy-to-handle web menus to for DNS, etc.? I am planning to get a Linode within a few months but Prgmr is a lot cheaper!
Bottomline, Linode has everything of what I am looking for (as I have seen most of the web interface from work). Easy to operate, fast, etc. Is Prgmr the same?
Since I don't like moving to different servers, I will probably be stuck with my choice for a few years. My mind would have been set to Linode if I wasn't reminded of Prgmr. :P
- lsc 16y agoI don't touch your dns at all... it's a static IP, my assumption is that you have dns service through your registrar or something, and that they are doing it better than I could. I do have a serial console/rebooter and you can boot in to a rescue image if you mess up your domain so you can fix things without my help... but it's only accessible via ssh, and authenticated via ssh public key. but yeah, overall, we're cheaper than Linode, but right now in most other areas they have me beat. I'm working on it, and I will catch up in features eventually, but right now it's a price vs features decision. As for the actual metal we run, every CPU bench I've seen, linode wins (I usually do okay vs. slicehost, though.) this is unlikely to change, just 'cause I don't see CPU as a bottleneck. It's very rare I see high cpu utilization. The biggest problem right now is that Linode has a system, I believe, for identifying, warning, and limiting heavy disk users. I have no such system. Because of this, I believe, they have a reputation for having better disk speeds than I do. I see this as a big problem for me, and I plan on implementing something similar shortly.
