- volandovengo 16y agoThanks! I wasn't aware that somebody had created a search utility for hackernews. :)
- dutchrapley 16y ago+1 Web Faction - starts you off with shared hosting with some dedicated memory for your application. You can add more as needed, for a small fee. +1 Linode - Best bang for your buck for a VPS loaded with features and reliability.
- taylorbuley 16y agoAgreed on Linode. Good people, good technology. One might also consider PHPFog or Orchestra.io, which are "Herokus for PHP"
- volandovengo 16y agoThanks - I will check them out. :)
- haploid 16y agoYes, and phpfog has the added bonus of being very secure. Those guys eat, sleep, and drink security. Your code/data/site is safe with them.
- abyssknight 16y agoSidenote: Linode will do 32bit images, which so far, has been proven to lower the memory needs of some processes. SliceHost/Rackspace Cloud only run 64bit images, AFAIK, unless this has been resolved since I last checked. You also get 512mb at Linode vs 256mb at SliceHost for the same cost. Learning curve is steep, I'll agree, but totally worth the investment in learning. When it gets to be a pain, hopefully your business model allows for you to hire someone to handle day to day operations. :)
