Dallas KVM VPS
Hello!
I am looking for a KVM VPS with the following specs:
2GB RAM
2 Cores (shared, low use)
30GB SSD Storage (SSD is a must and has to be redundant)
1TB Bandwidth on a 1Gbps Port
Hosted out of Dallas (Houston might work too)
The VPS has to be extremely reliable so if you could post uptime reports that would be helpful.
I would really like to host the application on AWS but they do not have a Dallas location.
I would appreciate offers and if anyone has any recommendations.
Thanks!

Are you saying Amazon does it cheaper than $10 MRC including bandwidth?
No, however
Amazon vs SpeedyKVM
Amazon is more reputable and is a real cloud, correct me if I am wrong. Amazon is high availability where SpeedyKVM is simply KVM Virtualization with redundant networking and power from what I see.
If my VM goes down due to hardware failure on SpeedyKVM I don't believe it will pop back up on a different node with no downtime.
I am willing to pay more for AWS. NOT bashing SpeedyKVM, their services are EXCELLENT and very high quality. I have used them before.
Thanks
Amazon does local storage, so not hot migration between nodes. The only cloudy features their VMs have is an hourly billing.
Also, Amazon is evil. You should be looking to pay them less than others, if at all.
Did not know that, thanks for the information! Very helpful
Amazon has a very good reputation, but I appreocate your input at the same time
You claim they are evil because they don't offer enough bonus features and they charge more than others? They are not worth the price?
Just want a explaination. Thanks
All Empires turn Evil given enough time.
Can confirm Amazon is evil. Warehouse snack machines never accepted my debit card when I worked there.
Snacks should be free anyway.
They are at amazon corporate
Oplink.net for Houston, Dediserve has Psychz Dallas location (Dallas 2) as well as Letbox
It is local storage and SAN storage. IO sucks in all their EC2 servers. Check their bandwidth pricing as well. They are good if you are planning on building a HA App and have the budget to afford all costs. Note that Amazon is not cheap at all.
Btw their micro instances.. Just dont use those. They are very, very limited in terms of resources. There is a lot of iowait, cpu steal, etc.
Now VPC, LBs, ES, etc makes them more interesting. Multi regional DB clusters etc.
Again, super expensive. Their support is good if you pay for the Premium Support which is, again, costly.
