Is $4999/yr good for 1000mbps x 365 ? - GoFuckYourself.com

Vapid - BANNED FOR LIFE · 10-31-2012, 11:05 AM

Server specs obviously fluctuate the price somewhat,
however $5k a year to have constant access to 1gbps
seems like a good investment to me in this day and age.

What do you think?

fris · 10-31-2012, 11:21 AM

too good to be true, $416 a month which is the price for about a 100mbps box from a decent host.

Penny24Seven · 10-31-2012, 11:25 AM

are you sure? What is missing because that sounds very good

pornguy · 10-31-2012, 11:31 AM

We average 50 to 70 mbps every day here so do your math before you sign up.

fris · 10-31-2012, 11:41 AM

5k would be a month on that 1gbps and even that is low

Vapid - BANNED FOR LIFE · 10-31-2012, 12:08 PM

$416.58 a month for 1000 mbps based out of the United States of America, yes it is 1gbit unmetered fris. Would you like to resell them?

That does Seem a little low ... I would check and or test their network out .. Make sure they been in business for more then 2 Years . However i would be skeptical about that myself , Unless they are selling you just the Bandwidth and they are either Overselling it or they are selling it with no profit margin .. which both would be Bad in my eyes cause it would not be sustainable .

Just my Thoughts

What do you think?

Why would you need a 1000mbps PIPE?

What kind of massive sites are you hosting?

Vapid - BANNED FOR LIFE · 10-31-2012, 12:45 PM

oscer - The price is low you are right however the supply factor is the justification.

I'm paying $80 a month for a good dual quad with 24gb ram and 100mps unmetered so I can assume It's doable.

Don't know about 1Gbs for those prices, but OVH just announced their 2013 server prices, and I swapped out an ailing 4yo server for one of these

with 36GB RAM and 2x120GB SSD and 2x2TB HDD with 200mbs guaranteed premium BW, for less than ?140/mo it's a no brainer.

Available in their new Canadian Beauharnois DC too...

Vapid - BANNED FOR LIFE · 10-31-2012, 02:19 PM

$125/1,000 mbps

borked · 10-31-2012, 02:50 PM

quality is everything...
On 200mbs with a 1Gbs burst never faltering (neither bandwidth nor server), I'm very happy where I am and this stat graph shows it

Can your server handle an average of 550 apache requests a second and push non stop 100-200mbs without ever failing???

Vapid - BANNED FOR LIFE · 10-31-2012, 02:51 PM

Quality can be raised with diversity.

AdultEUhost · 10-31-2012, 03:11 PM

You should ask them for their ASN, if you want us to look into the quality post it here and I will check it for you.

In terms of pricing, I am hardly amazed these days and have seen it all though I would be aware of such low pricing, usually comes at a cost ;)

Vapid - BANNED FOR LIFE · 10-31-2012, 03:45 PM

Vapid - BANNED FOR LIFE · 10-31-2012, 03:54 PM

Arn #s that was a good one.

Nathan · 10-31-2012, 05:57 PM

The most important thing is that a "pipe" of whatever size means nothing. The only thing that is important is the amount of actual 95/5 Mbps you push. Based on that and only that you should check the price. The other obviously important part is how many customers do they have that get anywhere near to the possible throughput and how much uplink do they have. Obviously, if they have 100 customers on that setup, it is highly unlikely they have 100gbps uplinks.

Exactly - and not a single host (that I know of) can beat OVH for upfront honesty and clarity in that department. Who else gives you live data on the load and traffic of their entire infrastructure? If you're a geek and love this kind of thing, have a look at http://weathermap.ovh.net/
I'd say get in on their BHS Canadian DC - massively under used at the moment

borked · 11-01-2012, 12:21 AM

Just to add, if you require an admin for managed services, then a single box at OVH will probably not be financially beneficial. But if you require an infrastructure or a number of boxes, then it very much becomes a viable option.

I don't know how others do it, but I charge much less for a cluster of servers to manage than the sum of the cost of managing the individual servers - which is normal since managing 10 boxes for 10 clients is much much more work than managing 10 boxes for a single client.

One really cool setup that is incredibly resistant for high traffic sites is a nice frontend box with nice RAM/NIC/SSD drives that serves as database server and load balancer (running nginx) to X number of backends which are lower grade and lower cost web servers (that can also replicate the db server if needs be).
Throw in a beast of a storage server and you have a kick ass infrastructure that can redundantly handle many hundreds of connections per second and push 100s mbs for less than a grand a month.

borked · 11-01-2012, 03:45 AM

it's not even a tube! if you follow the two graphs, peak at around 200mbs corresponds to ~800 requests a second. 800req/sec on a tube would be pushing multiple Gbs bandwidth I'm guessing...

I don't know who you are.. its carriers that sell bandwidth, not datacenters. Bring me any one carrier that will sell me 50,000 or 100,000 megabit @ .20 and I'll take it.
