I have some question about KVM VPS

Hello All LET friends

Today i am writing here some question about KVM vps. Now a day i am working in a hosting company. Last few day i notice my current company lost some clients. Lot of client open ticket about free site transfer in there new VPS. (note: All are cPanel vps)

Our CEO ask me that why current company lost clients !

Personally i ask some client why they go other company ?

They tell me that they got a better configure vps in other provider who give them good price and KVM vps in low budget !

Then i find the company who give KVM vps with a very cheap price. https://contabo.com/?show=vps see this

All LET member tell me that how this company able to give 30 GB ram KVM vps with 2TB disk in 25 euro !

Note : SSD BOOST and 1Gbps port with unlimited bandwidth !

    Own DC + monster nodes + older hardware + thin provisioning + ksm + ballooning

  • They give Intel(R) Xeon(R) CPU E5-2620

  • still really low prices and overwhelmingly high specs at such cost which ever way I see it

    How are you so sure about that when all it displays is QEMU Virtual CPU xx ?

    But most of the people will not be happy with the performance :)

    yea, you are so right

    hopefully not, cause it's way to competitive for small fry like my org. to compete

    Hmm.. Tempting offer, 6GB Ram 500 GB Disk 100 mbit unmetered for around $10/mo. Curious how well it works..

  • So what is your question?

    They work fine if you just want to host a few websites but they are throttled in such a way that game servers or other relative intensive stuff wouldn't work well.

    Contabo puts you on a 2011 socket i7, might even be with ECC (but i would doubt it).

    Host has (up to) 64GB RAM (CPU limit) which would mean 2 non oversold VPS per node (more likely 4) and an income of 25*2 = 50EUR - The dedicated server required to run this is sold by Contabo at 80EUR (without RAID tho)

    I doubt they make much profit on it and it might be missing RAID, but it's not impossible.

  • dont worry, they will come back to you after thair vps will be 2-3 days down or suspended. Contabo got rebranded before some years. they got to much bad reviews with the old brand (forgot the name). To poor servers with high downages.

    It's not very hard to offer what they're offering. It's just a dedicated server that's probably shared by a few people. They have a 2x E5-1620 with 128GB RAM for 120 euros. Divide 128GB RAM, and it comes out to about four of those 30GB plans and some extra. They're making about the same profit off their dedicated servers as their VPS.

    KSM memory sharing

    balooning

    thin provisioning

    Low GHZ cores (and old ones that why they tell how many cores but not how many GHZ youll get)

    (5 x 10 Gbit/s optical fiber) its all datacenter capacity MARKETING TRICK

    Unlimited traffic: No additional costs due to traffic (if average traffic consumption continuously exceeds 60 Mbit/s over a timespan of at least 5 days the connection is switched to 10 Mbit/s). MARKETING TRICKS

    Hiden windows price

    hiden control panel price

    hiden backups price

    First payment: 7.99 EUR (for 1 month) i think that they will add to me contract

    unknown CPU model

    unknown HDD model, in these days all good providers use SSD or at least caching solution

    Last time I had vps with them in 2013 & host-passthrough was not enabled on their vps then. So it seems that they have changed their policy recently :)
