Rackspace Cloud or AWS are your most equivalent options. There are lots of cloud VPS providers, but it's difficult to tell if they have any better security practices. I'd venture to guess that most small VPS providers aren't really any more secure; they're just smaller targets.
- drats 15y agoI think this is the essential point, the smaller ones often have no data points either way regarding security. That said, there are some great cheap ones http://www.lowendbox.com/ http://www.lowendbox.com/

They also make a few references to Linode - how are are/were they using their service?
- cheald 15y agoIt looks like LEB is hosted on Linode. http://forum.linode.com/viewtopic.php?t=8530&postdays=0&postorder=asc&start=15 http://forum.linode.com/viewtopic.php?t=8530&postdays=0&...
- chc 15y agoFWIW, Rackspace Cloud's brackets are very closely equivalent to Linode's at almost exactly the same price points. AWS has very different setups with very different price characteristics.
