Anyone also got the email ?

They seem to be back and offering a free VM for beta testing.

Here is the specs they are offering for testing purposes:

OneCloud Plan #2

  • CPU: 1 Core
  • Memory: 1GB RAM
  • Storage: 30GB SSD
  • Bandwidth: 2TB Transfer @ 1Gbps

Interesting points:

  • KVM
  • SSD drives
  • 1Gbps connection
  • Multiple locations available

Here is the link: http://bit.ly/onecloudreturns

What do you guys think ?

    Singapore and South Africa available right now in the beta, Tokyo and Hong Kong on the way... all with 2TB bandwidth and supposedly(?) the same pricing. Sounds pretty amazing.

    Actually, I can see the following available locations for beta on their invitation page.

    • Montreal, CA
    • Amsterdam, NL
    • Singapore, SG
    • London, UK
    • Los Angeles, US
    • Chicago, US
    • New York, US
    • Johannesburg, ZA

    Do you see all these locations too ?

    They say:

    Choose from our initial 7 locations, and switch around with a few clicks, for the duration of your free trial! The best part is, we are already working on launching an additional 16 locations from which you will also be able to switch around with the official release!

    Never ordered from these guys do they need verification?

  • I wonder if they will use online.net for Paris!

    I needed verifcation for my first dedicated server there.

    I wonder what's the pricing for these plans.

  • I was lucky to get a VPS during their beta test. I like that they're going to be offering a wide variety of locations. I might get a VPS in Vancouver, BC when they fully launch OneCloud v2. I just wonder if their support is going to be any faster than with their dedicated servers.

    On the Los Angeles VPS, I set Postfix to listen externally (on port 25) and disabled IPTables. I couldn't connect so I wonder if they're going to get of the spammers all together by blocking port 25 on all their servers? Or is it just a misconfiguration somewhere?

    Here's a few benchmarks (with ServerBear) from some of the locations they offer:

    Out of these 3 locations, Montreal had the best network (best was 88.8 MB/sec) and disk IO (1.0 - 1.1 GB/sec) speeds. The best CPU however goes to Los Angeles, with a UnixBench score of 1843.6. These numbers can change quite drastically once OneCloud v2 becomes public and kids start maxing out the resources on them.

    They seem to be sending me some sort of E-Mail, maybe that's the invite.

    But they can't into setting up a mail server, and I'm too lazy to turn off my spam filtering just for this. Also I'd assume the invite would appear in my panel, but there is nothing aside from the announcement about the "beta" launch itself.

  • i already sent an invitation :D hope to have one soon :D

    ^^ This. I am curious what the price is, and when the Beta is going to end.

    Otherwise, the locations are interesting; Singapore is gone already. Johannesburg is still available at this time.


    Edit: @brgs, I like these OneProvider guys, but their prices are typically high. Had their VPS for a few years when they had a crazy discount offer, I think it was from WHT. But then the throughput to some locations (Australia in particular) was not good for me.

    They are also an Online.net reseller but their prices are typically higher. At least they take Paypal and can bill in USD, so no currency fluctuations.

    They'll probably use the Online.net servers that they resell, but I'm just wildly guessing at that and can't confirm.

    As for the prices, I found the following information in the control panel. I don't know if they are definitives, or if they will change prior to public launch.

    Of course it's a little pricier than some other providers, but there is a lot of location available.

    Ah, Ok.. Maybe that's how it works, I was starting to think maybe I put in the wrong email.

  • Got the beta server yesterday. Hard to tell about cost/eprformance while there's no cost, but performance is fine (for cost expectations).

  • hotsnow said: me too, my gmail haven't received any email of them

    +1

  • i got a beta server from them a week ago and so far so good but not knowing the cost is a major set back for me.
    PS: i applied with 3 different email the 2 free ones gmail and yahoo never got anything and my professional one got the beta.
