To note, I started this as a frustration to current VPS providers. I wanted a minimalist, straight to the point, fast deploying VPS service with no bullshit.
Myself and another developer ended up creating our own provider from scratch with our own equipment co-located at a reliable DC.
In all we used:
Back-end: libvirt + kvm virtualization + ruby + go
Front-end: siantra (control panel), WHCMS (billing), all integrated into one (sinatra is reversed proxied via lighttpd)
Background / workers: resque + goworkers + some ruby workers
We're the first to introduce Atomic Project images.
We're still developing and continuing to add features. One of them being hourly billing as well as scaling.
- detaro 12y agoInteresting options, I like that you offer CoreOS and other "fancy" options. Also nice that you accept an SSH key, way to many services mail passwords around. From the FAQ: > Is this a contract? > No it is not, you may cancel at any time. Then how would you call it/what legal construct does describe the relationship with your customers? Maybe wording it as "Can I cancel anytime? Yes." would work better. EDIT: removed second question, misread something
