Another one of these threads :) Can we start a new section called:  PROVIDER SCHOOL   ? Really, I am not joking.  Would be a good on topic central area for new folks to spend endless hours reading.

These companies are fun :) Me: CaVPS Host is part of the VSNX family of companies.  Marlon:7:00 PM Hello  I am not sure about vsnx  Me: oh?  I was reading your Terms  I thought my friends owned your company now.  where is your hosting...

and in fairness there were multiple companies acquired in the past year on the slide by them.. That is still pretending to be those other companies.  No site update on info, same whois, etc.  Those seemed to be (when I spotted them) customers probably gone bad pay or disinterested in growing...

Could be :)  Or could be them not protecting their copy and policies.  Rampant reseller/wannabehost copy theft is a religion and Cross-fit like sport :)

Linux :)

I don't know about the East Coast claim.. I know Ashburn has been funky for them and probably a point to expand, but no real DDoS filtering?  @Francisco

Buffalo, New Jerk, leading web hosting company VSNX known by eight other family of company names including ColoCrossing announces global domination!  We own your hosting! Among the acquisitions in this round...

Also worth noting that Scaleway users were complaining recently about unbalanced bandwidth throughput to and from the internet. I believe it was upload side that was somewhere around 1/10th of the speed.   I'd consider this to likely be part of them ceasing open orders for Scaleway.  ...

Bahaha? Really, this happened?  Link if you have one...

I think Scaleway is part of a bigger slush fund someone has.  Read: owners loaded to gills with money.  Smells like a tax write disruption for market share. I can't see Scaleway continuing this at a grand scale... Limited stock is just plain sensible in any biz, especially in one where...

I'd create something new / original... I understand the namesake...  Unfortunately all those in hosting or numerous other businesses choose to forego their namesake.  Nothing sells like a properly soiled name or one too coincidentally close to things already parked on name in search --- which...

Unsure about matter closed.. Still showing open over here:http://status.ovh.com/?do=details&id=11304 Technically, it says In Progress, same as it has since it was opened :) Routing has changed since earlier (mind you this is testing from Toronto proper):  3...

ARM stuff is going to clock speed performance lag Intel for a while...  comparing mobile CPUs essentially to this point vs. workstation and server grade CPUs.  That will change. Economics and margins is a big thing here.  Scaleway smacked things to the floor with that ~$3.40 per board US...

#Lowendsupplychain  :) I can't see OVH launching ARM as a normal product.  It will cannibalize their other server sales and drain VPS / cloud.  It's able to be done, but complex financial puzzle that could quickly take money off the books.  I know they launched and pulled back... I've been...

I feel the same way about the fiber path issue...  Really unclear how much was and wasn't down.   I saw uptime on something there, but the packet loss and latency was so high that it was unusable.  Technically online, but real world it wasn't. With OVH's SLA in place, expect claims and nose...

Issue with their network is far from resolved I'd guess.  Incidents are still open on that portal. Couple of spots I checked show packets traveling to OVH now through TorIX (Toronto Internet Exchange).. Strange routes... I expect OVH to have fiber lit to TorIX, I surely would, directly:  6...

Smells like they got caught with a scheduled event on the bridge or related construction plus lighting new fiber...  Sounds like from that update, they are saying hell with the bridge (assumed) cut.   Packets are still getting to OVH, but like 40-50% loss.

It appears OVH was doing a network upgrade also...  new bigger fiber was about to be brought online soon.   Think that's with the 100G lines were about. They've gone quiet on updates. Someone implicated a nearby bridge project as maybe being the source of the outage.   The bridge has a...

Little fact correction on strands down... 26. 6x100G20x10G

OVH is offline in Canada right now. Someone miles away from the DC cut fiber somehow. What is alarming here is that fiber goes to Newark, NJ, meaning it appears OVH only has that bandwidth.  No local / regional peering.  Quite strange. 6 strands are down.  OVH CEO said 4 hours.  ...
