High Availability Provider (EU)

Hello,

in your experience are there providers that you can recommend for very high availability? I don't have high requirements for either bandwith, cpu, ram or disk space (50gb per month, 1 vcore, 256mb ram and 5gb disk would be enough) but I need high availability (the server would function as cheap remote proxy as in returning the address of a server best suited for further communication, some cheap kind of fail-over).

I have VPS with OVH but they tend to have reboots or sometimes some hours with connection loss which is not ideal.

Which provider can you recommend?

Thanks in advance!

    Take 3+ lowendspirit servers for a year it will cost you €9 p/year

    Build your own fail over in and you have 3 point HA.

    Ant. :)

  • +1 to clouvider. Outstanding provider! Top support, network and hardware.

    What kind of fail-over would be possible with such a setup? Round robin? (poor main fail over) anything more sophisticated could be done?

    interested as well

  • Check the LES forum. There's an interesting post somewhere regarding a HA setup.

    It's right here. Maybe not exactly what you're looking for but most definitely an interesting read. Tried a similar setup myself resulting in 100% uptime in a two year timespan.

    Nice, IT-LES-HAPROXY & US-LES-HAPROXY can handle two IPs so that both redirects to the right node if one if offline? If so couldn't it be made more simple using both LES HAPROXY an redirectling directly to VPSes where the site is hosted?

    The problem I see is that if CloudFlare redirects because of the round robin to the two HAPROXY provided by LES - if one of those do down (as they are on the same machine as the VPSes, it's as likely as a VPS going down!) and if cloudflare redirects your visitor to this one, the site is down, isn't it?
