Help with Wt hosting server

Added by John Robson over 9 years ago

Hello everyone!

I would like your help in choosing a server to host my Wt web application.

My Wt web application uses Boost, PostgreSQL, R, CUrl, GraphicsMagick and other libraries.

I developed in Debian 7 using GCC 4.8 (C++11) and few functions has a medium workload.

I also want use this server to host a simple:

- Wordpress/Drupal (MySQL) site.

- Git server.

  • SMTP server.

Everything is for personal use, not for commercial use, not for a company.

I researched more than 100 hostings companies, the summary is below:

(USD Price, RAM Memory, #Cores, Hard Disk, [Bandwidth, Dedicated IPs (if more than 1)])

Hey John,

That's a nice review in its own right.

Our experience is that more ram is more valuable. The actual experience and satisfaction unfortunately has more to do with how problems are being handled. That is probably something you can only find out by actually experience. The merit of a vps core cannot be compared between different providers.

Overall it looks like prices are still dropping every year.

It would be great to know what you went for and how it went.

Regards,

Koen
