Further to Chris' comments...

Digiweb/Webdrive, Unleash and Voyager/Net24 all do VM and VPS options. You talking Vmware or a VPS like OpenVZ/Virtuozzo?

I'd put Digiweb and Voyager above Unleash in support but also depends who you are currently with and what is required.

Do you mean with a datacentre in CHCH, or just a phone number?

CCL infrastructure as a service and compared to off-shore offerings would probably be at the highish end price wise.

Other than that I don't know of any actually in CHCH that I'd consider high end. Maybe Snap?

If you just need a local phone number Amazon and Rackspace both lave local numbers (0800's) and there are some MSP's doing value-add on top of Amazon who are local-ish with good in-house resources, although not in CHCH, Wellington and AKL. Fronde do have a local guy though, but my impression is that he's not technical and calls the head office for tech. issues.

Any particular reason you need it to be in CHCH? You're not going to be able to go hug-a-server anyway :-)

As long a the bandwidth / service levels are suitable offshore is quite often the most economic path, although if you have data sovereignty or IP location issues that's not an option...

FYI: I look after stuff at linode, rackspace and AWS along with a customer who uses CCL, and they all have their good points and not-so-good ones. CCL is not a patch on the other three for maturity of service offering and flexibility but that customer has sovereignty issues which make off-sure not an option.

Subject: [Linux-users] Highish end VPS providers in Christchurch???

Hi folks,

Can anyone recommend providers of such a service? I'm looking to add a
new node to an existing HA solution to move away from the single
provider setup that I've inherited ( and which belched rather loudly a
week or so ago, disconnecting services for half an hour or so ).

Apologies if off topic - it will of course be running linux (:

Cheers,


Steve
