Thanks! @anon40039896

I wanted to provide more details about what I looking for.

I want to build a Cloud Lab on Proxmox.

Doesn’t have to be a dedicated server, in theory it could be a VPS with nested virtualization support however performance is better on a dedicated server.

I am not stuck on a certain processor - I have very little needs for tons of horsepower.

I might even be able to make due with 16GB of RAM if the price was right. Of course more is better.

I don’t need 100% uptime or a super fast network, but I also don’t want it down all the time.

Worldstream is perfect for that, you could even have a whole bunch of cheaper dedis.

Reading your demands, I would personally go with PHP-Friends

Those are all rootservers, with dedicated cores.

Thanks! @anon40039896

How do I change the site to English?

anon40039896 · December 13, 2019, 10:44pm

Not ideal, I know…

Just start a chat / leave a message, support speaks english

aaronstuder · December 13, 2019, 10:57pm

Thanks! Do you know if they allow virtualization?

anon40039896 · December 13, 2019, 10:59pm

Both do.

In general, when you got dedicated cores, either on dedi or kvm, they are yours.

FUP is only with shared resources (still possible with traffic for instance)

@anon40039896 What do you think of this?

anon40039896 · December 13, 2019, 11:14pm

Looks good, but I have no experience with them, so I can’t tell you.

This is from 2 yrs ago, probably they got their things together by now :

@anon40039896 What do you think of NetCup?

anon40039896 · January 22, 2020, 12:34am

Hmm… very good, but for mission critical stuff i’m not fully convinced yet.

Support is so so

aaronstuder · January 22, 2020, 12:38am

This is quite a good deal…

Don’t know if they support nested virtualization but they are dedicated cores.

API · January 22, 2020, 12:43am

Wasn’t it Netcup who charged for enabling nested virtualization?

imok · January 22, 2020, 2:01pm

Yes.

beagle · January 22, 2020, 2:21pm

Yes, if I’m not mistaken they charge per core.

PHP Friends includes VAT in the price, since I am in the USA I get them cheaper?

anon40039896 · July 21, 2020, 7:53am

Yes, you do

aaronstuder · July 21, 2020, 9:27am

Crazy! Sad that they have a 12 mouth commitment tho
