    Email Spam Decreases to Less than 50% of all Email

    Symantec and Cisco's SenderBase seem to have a difference of opinion.  SenderBase puts Spam at 86.53% (160.63 billion daily spam emails), legitimate email at 13.46% (24.99 billion daily), Malware 00.0069% for the past week.  12 month average is 85.94% spam so a slight uptick according to...

    One VPS with multiple webservers powering different sites?

    If you don't want to have to type in port numbers all of the time when you access the sites you could use nginx as a front end (running on ports 80, 443) and forward (proxy_pass...) to the apache and lighttpd servers one of my servers: Nginx front end ports 80, 443 Tomcat 8166, 8443...

    Impact VPS - Complete Website Redesign

    I don't see any links to your TOS or to a privacy policy on the main site (or in the knowledgebase) which would make me hit the back button and go look at your competitors. The only link to your TOS is the "agree to TOS" checkbox on the last page of your checkout process. tip: add links to the...

    The cesspit / chat thread.

    Brace yourself: Google joins OpenStack  <--big news for the future direction of "the cloud" (and it once again raises the question for some providers who chose an alternate platform: do you really think choosing the proprietary OnApp will prove to be a good long term decision when its adoption...

    Cloud VPS is really cloud?

    CloudVPS.com's HA platform (with data redundancy over 3 Amsterdam DC's connected by their own fiber ring) uses OpenStack and they have ISO 27001, Nen 7510, and CloudControls certifications.  You were asking about the provider CloudVPS, right? :P

    OpenVZ

    umm yeah, that is true...VMware and Hyper-V have about 75% of the virtualization market (based on Gartner's annual survey in 2014).  KVM is growing strongly mainly due to the growth of OpenStack but it still only accounts for a relatively small percentage of the server virtualization market (and...

    Little Happy Cloud - new service from LES

    My objection is mainly to the "little happy" part of the name not to the "cloud" part.  The first time I heard the name it reminded me of the Teletubbies for some reason and I got this sudden desire to grab my baseball bat and take a swing at some knee caps.  Sorry Anthony.  :P...

    Little Happy Cloud - new service from LES

    I'll disagree that it is a meaningless term (and IEEE and NIST.gov will also disagree with you).  The standards haven't been finalized yet by the working groups but there is already a general agreement of what makes a "cloud", technical definitions of it, and a developing framework of standards...

    ... / DDoS protected Canadian VPS from $11.11 / OVZ / Unmetered bandwidth / IPv6 / 1 to 9 cores

    You linked to an explanation of US laws which aren't applicable to the ellipsisno.de TOS.  Of course  there is no way for anyone to know that ellipsisno.de is a Canadian business and the TOS is (presumably) governed by Canadian law since it is not stated in the TOS <--strong hint to all...

    Blocking Fraud Orders - Best Solution

    You should perform automated fraud checks during checkout  and have rules in place that when triggered would funnel suspect orders for a manual review before you do the final payment capture. "Best Solution" depends entirely on your company's payment processing volume.  I've found that...

    Industry News From The Land Of Oles: ARM v8 Cloud Servers, $2.99/2GB SSD KVM/OpenStack

     The compatibility and PITA aspects are why I decided not to use Online.net's Scaleway ARM offering in production.   OVH has the resources that it can launch cloud products that only cater to a small subset of users (like their Power8 offerings) which is what I suspect this will be.   Their...
