Hi *,
I strongly agree with Aerdan here. In my opinion, the risks of moving to
VPSes on hardware shared with other tenants outweight all (perceived or
real) benefits of using aarch64 instead of x86.
I suppose I can look into more dedicated hosting. Honestly, at our
level of project income, I wasn't even considering it.
Furthermore, I believe our current x86 infra has more than enough
capacity to accomodate all services we require, so forgoing the use of
scw aarch64 vpses would save us money too.
See my response to Kiyoshi for why I feel this is a Very Bad Idea™.
However, I am in favour of migrating away from Integricloud
regardless
of the destination to which we'd migrate, be it aarch64 vpses, our
already existing x86 infra, colo'ed x86 or ppc servers, or a cluster of
raspis in someone's basement.
I do have a static /27 on AT&T, if everyone can stomach 5 Mbit/s egress.
(That's not a typo, I have 30 down and 5 up at my office until the
bonded pair is healed. ETA: whenever AT&T gets their fingers out of
their ---)
The idea of Integricloud is neat, but their unwillingness to set up
a
reliable, redundant uplink even after several outages that could've been
easily avoided, combined with their completely ludicrous prices, makes
them an extremly unattractive option in practice.
+1.
Best,
