So, what other providers offer SmartOS?

in General

Hello friends,

I am trying to find out who else offers hosting or cloud based on SmartOS hypervisor, or even dedicated w/ SmartOS as an OS option.

This is what I found:

  • Joyent.com - of course, they made SmartOS and run their whole Public Cloud on it

  • OVH.com - it seems they'll install SmartOS hypervisor onto a dedicated server for you

  • EveryCity.co.uk - never heard of them, but it seems they do offer SmartOS in some shape or form

  • And, well, me.

My Primary Goal is to finding a dedicated server provider outside of the US, who can host SmartOS for me so that I can start introducing more datacenters into the mix at vRocket.

Servers have to be Dual Xeon (2.6 - 2.93Hz), 6-10 phys. cores, 128GB - 256GB RAM, 2 x SSD + 4 x SAS (or 6 x SSD - Intel SuperCapped Datacenter Edition, no cheapos). No Raid (ZFS doesn't like HW raid).

Looking for places in: Germany, Switzerland, Netherlands, UK, and maybe a West Coast based DC just to add that to the mix as well. Gigabit uplink a must.

My Secondary Goal is to figure out if there's anyone else out there hosting a "public cloud" based on SmartOS (like Joyent and vRocket do).

Thanks in advance!

    We offer SmartOS / SmartDC but not in LEB/LET pricing range. SmartOS is also used for ZFS storage in our email services.

    Proof? I haven't been with them long, but I've noticed nearly no downtime aside from when I reformatted the server a month ago.

    uptime 02:04:08 up 45 days, 9:25, 1 user, load average: 0.04, 0.02, 0.00

    I/We are customer since a few months already, besides slow support (still no reply about SWIP after a month now, at least RDNS was delegated) the network has issues far more often than other nodes.

    Quickly from just slave errors - always coming up when there seems to be DDoS.

    Feel free to let the door hit you on your way out and make sure not to leave any of your lies laying around the room either, I hope your mom taught you how to pick up after yourself.

    You must continue being a customer because its so bad, real genius mentality.
    Spend less time following me around like a horny dog, and more time making your next rent payment. #protip
