    BudgetVZ/MegaVZ - Dedicated IPv4 Plans from €4/yr NAT IPv4 From €1.50/yr

    I am keeping it professional from an end users prespective.  Data security is one of the top concerns of users and the weakest point, and biggest security risk, in any organization is poorly vetted employees and contractors with questionable histories who are given access to customers' data. ...

    For about $7.90 you can get an OpenStack KVM w/1GB RAM /100GB storage /unlimited bandwidth at ConoHa (owned by GMO Internet).  Ablenet's KVM plans start at about $5.50 monthly (as low as $4.20 if paid annually) for 512MB RAM/50GB storage/unlimited bandwidth.  Both of them offer free trials and...

    BudgetVZ/MegaVZ - Dedicated IPv4 Plans from €4/yr NAT IPv4 From €1.50/yr

    Ironic, since you have someone working for you now who has a history of infringing other people's copyrighted work by ripping multiple provider's designs (and then there was the use of a nulled WHMCS) and  who recently had a thread where he was offering services that infringed Microsoft's license .

    Vultr - What hardware exactly are they running on their SSD nodes?

    cat /proc/cpuinfo and cpuid (which just repeats the same extended brand string found in cat /proc/cpuinfo)  on most providers using KVM is fairly useless if you want to determine the real processor.  It'll tell you if it's Intel or AMD and the QEMU version but that's about it.  RunAbove is one...

    Average or adequate pay for (remote/work from home) L1 staff?

    "Real companies pay real money" , so check something like GlassDoor or Indeed salary search  Real companies also pay real benefits (see this job listing for Linode tech support for their job requirements, responsibilities, and benefits) WebHostingTalk job listings aren't the best place to go...

    Linode New Data Centers

    I'd never owned one until they ran a $50 free credit for new customers promo last summer.  The network in Japan and the VPS performance are good, and they monitor their services and send out emails (and updates) the second there is a problem (hardware, network) which brings me to the next part...

    Virtualization

    ^^ Agree.  I'm not a big fan of containerization on shared servers so I tend to avoid OVZ unless nothing else is available for a reasonable price in a location (which is why the only OVZ VPS I have are a $1.54 monthly 256MB and $3.04 monthly 512MB in Sao Paulo...annual plan promos when Host1Plus...

    Vultr - What hardware exactly are they running on their SSD nodes?

    Choopa owns ReliableServers.com. ReliableSite.net isn't one of their companies (although it does colo with them). Vultr's newer nodes are 3.5MHz which is probably E5-1650v2/3

    Vultr - What hardware exactly are they running on their SSD nodes?

    Choopa and UnmeteredServers sell E5506...the storage server Gameservers.com sells E3-1240v2 and Choopa/ReliableServers/Constant.com/UnmeteredServers sell E3-1240v3. Vultr uses Choopa (NJ) and Gameservers (everywhere else) locations. They don't sell i7-2600...

    VPS Request for a P2H Site?

    good luck with that one --> Spetsnazhost, VPSDatabase and a few other names over the years...do a search on WHT for both names.  If someone spams my customer service forms even one time it's guaranteed I will never do business with the person :)

    The cesspit / chat thread.

    If cheap is the sole basis of the business plan it's a losing proposition for both customers and providers, but if limited time cheap offers are used for marketing purposes then cheap can be a great bargain for dedicated and VPS customers.  Cheap is also possible and can be a winning proposition...
