Hi Gilles, My point was using X-as-a-service is a flawed model for tech users. The fact is a lot more has to be improved everywhere industry wide. Especially hardware quality, and management (IPMI2/KMVoIP included) tools, done properly in isolated networks with SSH console & serial and all other trouble can be evaded by rebuilds, backups, preorder. Indeed, I only mentioned OVH as minimum acceptable and not go-to :) but more like as one sample approach to handle self managed hosting Not used these providers yet and am too considering also online.net Thank you for the additions, I agree and have reviewed these offers before too, and recommend any provider that gives better hardware.. And more flexibility to manage the actual hardware like in the lab. The ones that dumb it down hide all of the complexity which breaks. Kind regards, Anton
