I just noticed that my VPS just expired 3 weeks ago, and there is no way to retrieve it back. That VPS equipped with 128MB RAM, 10GB HDD space for USD4.99 per year (damn cheap).
Then I’m seeking for another poor man VPS. I do not need humongous memory and disk space, just enough for me to SSH and perform remote network troubleshooting (nmap, nslookup, dig, telnet and sometimes for R&D purpose). Ramnode was the best candidate due to their SSD or SSD-Cached disk, but I want to explore another cheap provider.
I found a good deal with HostUS, for USD12 per year they provide:
– 768MB RAM
– 768MB vSwap
– 1 vCPU Core (Fair Use)
– 20GB Disk Space
– 2TB transfer
– 1Gbps uplink
– 1x IPv4
– 4x IPv6
– OpenVZ / Breeze Panel
Breeze Panel is their modified WHCMS integrated with SolusVM (maybe).
Benchmark:
USD12/year available from this link (affiliate). You can’t find from their main page. While stock last.
p/s: From TM Unifi, I’m getting better latency when I choose London Data Center.
pp/s: You can also use coupon code TOPPROVIDER for 20% off any unmanaged plans on their site
