Ask HN: any hosting companies offering microservers?
It would be great to be able to rent a microserver, ideally with an SSD - is such a configuration even possible at the moment? If yes, does anyone know of a hosting company that offers them?
- smoove 15y agoPlease define microserver. Amazon offers virtual servers ranging from very small, to very powerful: http://aws.amazon.com/en/ec2/ http://aws.amazon.com/en/ec2/

- smoove 15y agoAhh, did not know that microserver is a real product, i thought you need a very "unpowerful" server :)
- trafficlight 15y agoDoes it really matter what hardware it's running on? From your point of a view one of these nodes and a VPS would look and function the same, right?
- pasbesoin 15y agoSome months ago, a member here mentioned a $40/month atom-based server offer that seemed to please them. SearchYC... Hmm. I didn't recall it being in this context, but maybe this is it: http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=2429947 http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=2429947
