News story about a cloud hosting provider?
Here's some dissenting opinions about them. Half of them have some sort of merit.
Disclosure: I have a vested interest in their direct competitor.
Seriously, man? You point out some valid things but this post doesn't really serve a purpose.
- blueskin_ 13y agoNo IPv6 is fairly serious. As is censorship to the point I wouldn't feel comfortable using them in case I angered Big Google at some point. Their general lack of HA and resource shortages make them look like amateurs. So what if I use Linode? I don't work for them. I use two other providers as well. My 'vested interest' in them is limited to my VPS there running. I don't get a discount for pointing out DO sucks and Linode don't ban me if I speak ill of someone they like. PS. Is a VPS host really a 'cloud hosting provider'? That term makes me think of overpriced individual services that aren't a self contained system, like AWS/EBS/their hosted databases.
