[Request] Looking for SSD VPS on LA, budget : $18/Q
I need VPS with specs below:
CPU: 2-4 vcore 3Ghz+
RAM: 2GB-4GB
SSD: 30GB-40GB
IPv4: 4-5
Location: LA
Uplink : 1Gbps +
Weekly backup if available
budget : $18/Quarter
my new web will have some sql so I prefer ssd+good cpu.
anyone?
or you can PM me/reply this thread about your price, if $18/Q doesn't match your price

BoltVM comes to my mind, but they would be $5/mo. for only 1GB with only 1 IPv4.
I see.. for 1 IP maybe I will prefer vapornode with his coupon
but thanks for your reply
I guess the cheapest way would always be to wait for a sick promotional offer.
Have to be pure ssd or just ssd cached good enough? I ask because @VMbox had a 3gb plan for 50/yr with 5 ipv4 a few months back, but it was only cached. Doubt they could do exactly that for that many addresses again, but maybe they could get you close. Free wildcard SSL with it, which is always a plus.
Really though, you should consider a higher price point for what you're looking for... Vultr could get you a 2gb for just a few bucks more, but you'd be short on addresses. Most providers will want $1 a month for an extra address, so you'll be taking 12 a quarter away from them at that point. You're asking for greenvaluehost style deals with your price range... I'm fairness, they're probably the only one that could or would do it... Think I saw an email from them come through (really need to unsubscribe from that) about 12gb ram with a ton of addresses for 25/qtr or some such. Wouldn't recommend it if you value quality of service though
What kind of site you running? You don't really need ssd unless your going to be querying the hell out of mysql. Setting up a ram disk is a easy way to speed up mysql.
Any advice relating to using a RAM disk with MYSQL?
are you talking about memcache?
if it is, then I have already used some memcache there, but there's something logic that somehow hard to use memcache like "search" feature.
please read : or you can PM me/reply this thread about your price, if $18/Q doesn't match your price
pure ssd is preferable. I wouldn't consider GVH. Thanks.
anyone can match this price?
Actually running the database in ram.
restart mysql
Won't there be data loss if your server shuts down?
Yes but there are many different ways to apply a ram disk to mysql. The one I gave above was just of an example of how to apply it. You can dump your temp queries to the ramdisk to speed up mysql.
Edit: The above method you have to backup your mysql databases on a normal basis.
Unless your database is sufficiently large to saturate your RAM, it already is in-memory. And even after that, the indexes still are. The RAM disk is just a bad idea.
Your reducing the query times. It all depends on your situation and what your doing.
What? How so? If your DB is small enough to fit in memory, you're not hitting spindles anyway, ramdisk or not.
Your database is not going to be cached all the time depending on the size. Your going to have eventually hit the disk to get some data. So having a the database on a ram disk reduces the time it takes to pull up the data. I am neither a MYSQL expert but from what I seen from using a ramdisk it has greatly improved the situation.
VPSDime? Just a few dollars over your budget but their service is solid.
bump
It's actually $3 a month or $30 a year for a 1 GB VPS! We're currently out of stock in Los Angeles for our SSD VPS, though, and I'm not sure when we'll begin re-stocking them.
Oh, I am so sorry.. the price on your website seems to be wrong? It says $5 but when you click $3..
Yep, we're pushing out an update this week.
got my vps, can close this thread, thanks all
