Need 3 VPSes

I need 3 Vpses for my university project. The Vpses will be used for data gathering(spider), so I will be making around 1-5(Max) requests per minute. So the whole point of this request is, I don't want to get suspended for sending a lot of requests.

The Vpses wouldn't be used for anything unethical, so you wouldn't get any complains.

Requirements:
Ram : 256 MB
Location : Doesn't matter as long as, it has good connection.
Diskspace : 4 - 10GB/VPS (SSD preferred, HDD is fine as long as it has decent I/O)
IPV4/VPS
Payment method : Skrill(Preferred), CC

Since this is university project, the budget for all these Vpses is $6-$8/3VPS.

    Can you clarify, is that $6 to $8 per VPS or total amount for 3 VPS?

    ^ I'd consider that then. Also, do you need 3 different locations too or should they all be with one location/provider?

  • Go with Wable, you'll get 5 VPS's for $8

    @Incero
    I just want to confirm, is it fine, if Vps send around 1-5 requests per minute? the script wouldn't use much resources.

  • You won't get a better than deal than Wable's bundle 3.

    Just don't raise a support ticket asking for help configuring anything or you're out on your arse.

    Wable is a stable platform, you can use it for regular usage, you don't need to worry about that.

    You're a poet and didn't know it.

  • I can give my server cloudrino not use, it has 512 MB RAM and 1 core

    In fairness, at that price you are explicitly going for an unmanaged service. I wouldn't expect help configuring stuff unless there was a problem specific to something oddly non-standard in their network.

    Having said that, I was pleasantly surprised with Dacentec's response when I slightly cocked up my $20/mo dedicated server setup and needed things resetting from their end - so good support is not unheard off from inexpensive providers. If your 6-to-8 dollar budget is per month then you could have one of their $1/month VPSs and there are several other providers with similar spec VPSs for the same or not much more meaning three easily be inside your budget. If you don't need them to be geographically or topologically separated then grab three from there for $3/month.

    Pooled OVZ accounts like those already suggested are definitely worth considering too though, especially if you can spread the resources between different locations.

    I doubt any host, even the cheapest overloaded massively-oversold penny-grabbing company, will even notice 5 outgoing connections per minute coming from a VPSs; even if that is a daily average and all your requests are in one hour or less - so I wouldn't worry overly about that.

    I'm completely onboard with Wable's 'do it yourself or GTFO' policy.

  • should have gone with moosevz. Their company is not run by buttholes, but by lovely Canadian French who offer you Baguette and Croissant with every ticket.*

    *reality may differ slightly

    You're totally wrong, Quebec is not the French nation. You should have said poutine and maple syrup instead ;)

    Why? College = $30,000-75000/year... That's a lot of money that you seem to have ._.

  • doghouch said: Why? College = $30,000-75000/year... That's a lot of money that you seem to have ._.

    Urm. It's mostly free here. ;)

  • @MeAtExampleDotCom thank you for the suggestions, I have multiple Vpses with time4vps, Vultr and other providers, and I haven't even opened a single ticket in a year, so I don't need support as long as it's working fine.
    I was not sure how outgoing request look to a provider, so I thought it would matter.

    @ShalaWorks thank you for your offer.

    @keanu Thank you for the offer, but I might use it for commercial purpose after University, so I can spend some amount on it :) I'll definitely consider elasticnode for future projects.

    I can live with it :)
