(Quote) For large volume orders, yes, we could work out special prices. DM me with what specs and pricing you seek and let's see what we can do. As for network routing, we are connected in Singapore to SGIX, Telstra and PCCW. Those three provide us…

(Quote) My apologies! I missed your question. Yes, it is an additional fee and we can provide 7 or 30 days of snapshots as well as the ability to do permanent snapshots, which can then be used to deploy new virtual servers.

If a ticket is open for that long in pending state, it means that it is either waiting for something, it requires a higher level person to do it and/or it isn't critical to handle right away, especially during the Thanksgiving weekend. Anything cri…

(Quote) Do it. :)
-
(Quote) Sure, you may. Then, open a ticket with the request, and our team will leave the ticket pending for resolution later when we are ready. :)

(Quote) It may probably be sometime in January. We are busy with some other features to be introduced. But in the meantime, we will soon start accepting BGP sessions for IPv6 and IPv4. It will just simply be configured manually by our staff until i…

(Quote) At this moment, our Singapore and Silicon Valley, California data centers are enabled for routed IPv6. Las Vegas, Nevada will hopefully come online this week (it's a bit delayed). And Amsterdam will follow sometime in December. Early in 20…

We have a lot of bandwidth commits that we pay for but not use. Thus, we offer generous amounts of bandwidth.
-
(Quote) Yes :)
-
(Quote) We are here. :) Did we miss something?
-
(Quote) Yes, we've heard this before from our clients. We plan on adding a delay, such as, only disallow actions if the invoice is due after, say, 10 days, for example. Would that reduce the inconvenience?
-
(Quote) Unfortunately, we don't have any planned, except for this one that we posted. But we do have plans for a Black Friday sale...
-
(Quote) Thank you! We are working on updating their certificates within the next 24 hours.
-
(Quote) Yes, during the order process, it can be changed. But not once the server has been running for some time. We will most likely introduce a way to do that in a later release of our portal. :)
-
(Quote) Yes! We have so much capacity in Singapore that we are paying for but not using... so, we thought we'd give a generous amount away. :) Unfortunately, no. But if you pay for a year or three years and our service doesn't fit your needs, let u…

(Quote) Yes, please DM me and let's discuss the details. :)
-
(Quote) Thank you! Yes, we do. :) I totally forgot to add that to our first post: Looking glass * Santa Clara, California: Looking glass * Las Vegas, Nevada: Looking glass * Dallas, Texas: Looking glass * Ashburn, Virginia: Looking glass * Ams…

(Quote) That sounds reasonable. We will also offer a /56, which offers 256 /64s. I guess that should be enough...? But if they are getting blocked, that may mean they aren't behaving well out there?
-
(Quote) We PXE boot TinyCore on each server that is not in use by a client and it runs a series of custom scripts, some of them every X minutes. These scripts report hardware information back to our APIs as well as power usage and other statistics a…
-
(Quote) I think that is the idea we are moving to. Provide a library of all kinds of ISOs first, and then add the feature to allow the upload of their ISOs...
-
(Quote) Great list! Of those, we use TinyCore quite a bit! And I wish we could offer MacOS VMs.....
-
(Quote) This is correct. We have enabled swtpm in all of our hypervisors, which emulates a TPM for Windows 11/2025. For Windows 11 licensing, the client would bring their own license, as we are not allowed to offer it under the Service Provider Lic…
-
We'd like to update that we just added Windows 11 to our platform as of today. :) We hope to be able to post some great at LES soon!
-
(Quote) The obstacle was just preparing our hypervisors to provide TPM emulation... but that upgrade is almost done... We'll have Windows 11 in the system soon. :)
-
(Quote) I actually like NIX a lot... maybe we can at least provide the ISO built into our portal...> @yoursunny said:
-
(Quote) Ahh Solaris... that brings good memories to my old college days... also IRIX, back in the days of Silicon Graphics workstations...
-
(Quote) You know, maybe it's time we support it... we have received a few requests here and there. Maybe it would attract more BSD clients...
-
(Quote) I had never seen that before! So many amazing projects out there... we are going to download it in the near future and play with it. Thanks!
-
(Quote) hmm yeah, not a bad idea. I guess in that case, we would pass on the effort to the client if they want to use something old. We can just make the ISOs available in our system in some pull down menu...
-
(Quote) We have a few large clients (especially government) that have some custom software that only compiles in X or Z version of some older version of an OS... In cases like that, the OS is provided fully firewalled for the customer.
-
(Quote) Your last sentence there reminds me of something that happened back when we used to offer colocation services... A customer asked us to do some upgrades to his server. When we opened the server, we realized that he used pieces of cardboard …
-
(Quote) That's a good theory also... it did not cross our minds...
-
(Quote) We asked them about when we can expect their new and reduced rates. No answer so far :)
-
Wait... Virtualizor saves passwords in plain text??? Our software wipes out the password from our DB once it is given to the client. Remember HyperVM? And its creator committing suicide when all HyperVM based hosts got compromised and destroyed bec…

(Quote) Miami seems to be a popular choice :)
-
(Quote) We actually went to see a few data centers up there last year... any preferences or experience with any of them?
-
(Quote) We've been looking into the Nap of the Americas, now owned by Equinix, down in Miami...
-
(Quote) That's great advice. I didn't think about Equinix LA3 and LA4. We are in talks right now with Coresite about their LA2 location...
-
(Quote) I just realized I never replied to your question! Sorry about that! The Infomart building is the popular colo destination in Dallas (think 1 Wilshire in LA or 55 Market in San Jose). Infomart is now owned by Equinix, but there are other col…

(Quote) Just so you know, the next servers you acquire from our next decommission, will also have those stickers on them. ;) I remember that decommission and our lead engineer tells me that he is the one that talked to someone from your team and ar…
