Hi all,

I run a small hosting service for about a dozen rural based customers.

I will be moving my premises to a new site but have to wait until 
construction is completed.  My premises are sold and under contract 
so I need to find a temporary home for my services.  A VPS is 
probably the best option right now and so I am looking for 
recommendations.


I will need 100Gb disc space, 4 CPUs, 4Gb RAM and at least 200Gb 
traffic (includes in and out).  The VPS will be fully managed by 
myself and I do require CentOS 7.


Anyone with good stories?

Regards,

Rick

I'm using binary lane and ransomit
https://www.binarylane.com.au/
https://www.ransomit.com.au/

Binary lane has had a few problems in the past few months but it seems 
they have gotten that sorted.


Thanks to all who have replied.  I have plenty of good info to work with 
now.  I find it better to work with info provided by people who have had 
or are having good experiences.  Special thanks to Lubos for his links - 
there is some very useful stuff there.


Regards,

Rick

1. Have you tried asking on Whirlpool forums? They got plenty of
experienced people there.
2. I just started using Exigent for web hosting (not vps) and so far they
are cheap and deliver. They also have VPS options. They got reports of
improving over time on Whirlpool.

[SLUG] Recommendations for Australian Based VPS

2015-03-24 Thread Rick Phillips

Hi all,

I run a small hosting service for about a dozen rural based customers.

I will be moving my premises to a new site but have to wait until 
construction is completed.  My premises are sold and under contract so I 
need to find a temporary home for my services.  A VPS is probably the 
best option right now and so I am looking for recommendations.


I will need 100Gb disc space, 4 CPUs, 4Gb RAM and at least 200Gb traffic 
(includes in and out).  The VPS will be fully managed by myself and I do 
require CentOS 7.
