Backup is a sort of miraculous snake oil recommended to cure any issue posted in WHT. Unfortunately backup saves only the past. :-) Not that problem if you have zero visitors, zero transactions, zero e-mails.

What about $7 x 256 monthly? :-) 2 x Power8 3.0Ghz 512 GB 2 x 400 GB SSD + 6 x 1.2 TB SAS 10K

No. Please take a look at this blog post: http://blog.softlayer.com/2012/global-ip-addresses-what-are-they-and-how-do-they-work David Mytton Matt Freeman (@nonuby) • 4 years ago We've been using this for over a month now and it's working well. We've rerouted the...

Not all customers as GD is counting just happy customers. :-)

I see HA and disaster recovery as completely different animals. :-) An enterprise has a very limited number of mission-critical systems and hundreds/thousands of less essential or less used software or data. In case of a facility-wide disaster or simple outages the downtime and eventualy loss...

Great read! IMO Azure is the best public cloud, second to none.

From GD's home page: Although not 100% SMBs, 13+ million customers to cross-sell and upsell :-)

I must disagree :-). Having an incident compromising an entire facility you need to think disaster recovery. Everything else, a true fault domain implementation in a true 2N data center will keep the infraestructure required to run your HA system (at least for a while). Not to say I...

IMO you can't compare nominal prices because Scaleway's data center (Iliad DC-3) is not comparable to the others two.

The point here, and I think drmike made it clear, is something in the line if you don't need HA any solution (or marketing ploy) pretending to offer HA is good  :-) but if you really need HA then you can't disregard / downplay drmike's post. There is no such thing as good enough HA. Simple like...

Very true. BTW I don't know the current status but when Floating IPs was launched DigitalOcean (and Vultr) haven't implemented "fault domains" (and ideally "upgrade domains") which is a basic requirement to HA. “A fault domain is a set of hardware components – computers, switches, and more...

There is a new Google SSD study that says " RBER (raw bit error rate), the standard metric for drive reliability, is not a good predictor of those failure modes that are the major concern in practice". BTW  

Online.net's HardwareWatch service (*)  uses IPMI to check the status of various sensors on their servers (almost 100% HP and Dell; mostly HW RAID). PRTG has the feature Nagios has at least one plugin -- you may want to take a look at this white paper...

Actually depends on the application you want to run. Dedibox SC uses 64-bit VIA Nano processor U2250 (x86-64) while C1 uses 32-bit ARMv7 Processor rev 2 -- and many applications don't run on ARM and/or 32-bit processors.. E.g. Someone (myself) could think would be great to use Scaleway's...
