Hi, sorry to bug you again @
swatkats and @
Leapswitch|Ishan
No problem, let me explain.
I read you explanation to open vz and KVM and a few questions
>>> When it says 1 vCPU Core , What does it actually mean? If the processor is 16 core, you'l be having 16 such VPs on it? How does that work?
1 vCPU Core means that you can access processing power upto 1 CPU. So if there are 30 VPSes on one node, each VPS will be able to use upto 1 vCPU at any given time. This is possible as all VPSes do not use their entire processing power at all times. It does not mean that Core 1 is allocated to VPS 1 , Core 2 to VPS2 etc.
>>> Is the IP Address shared or mine alone?
It is dedicated to you.
>>> How much extra for extra resources like bandwidth , ram, diskspace, more processing power ? Could you provide a small table to help us understand the costs?
It is better to upgrade to a higher plan. We offer custom additions on request but our plans are made in a way that no particular resource is left unsold once the main server is sold out. If we sell a lot of custom addons it may cause us to have 2GB RAM free but no space left to create the VPS.
>>> Why is the disk space on KVM so less?
In KVM space is dedicated to a VPS , it cannot be oversold. In OpenVZ it can be oversold as not all users use all the space.
>>> When you say managed, what exactly do you mean?
It means we will have installation, configuration, monitoring and troubleshooting of all services on the VPS. We will also assist in deployment of your websites/applications.
>>> What all do we have to setup from a clean install to reach a Shared hosting panel's convenience? And how much of it would managed server ease? Perhaps link an article/quick list?
As above, you will need to configure the OS, install cPanel, configure cPanel/WHM, secure it, update Apache/PHP to the latest version with required modules, configure nameservers etc, and then start creating cPanel accounts which you can use as shared hosting. Apart from this you will also need to setup monitoring, disable unnecessary services, tweak settings, add security applications and configure them (eg firewall) etc.
>>> Will you always have a LEB deal? Like not screw us after a year?
(Basically are these plans sustainable for you?)
Once you signup for a deal the price remains same unless there is a huge increase in upstream pricing (unlikely as all we purchase is power and bandwidth). In our past 7 years in business we have never raised prices for any client apart from domain name renewal pricing.
I discovered VPS here on TE and have no prior experience though I'm plenty nerdy. I may have more questions
I am looking to purchase one for a longish term in the next month, hence the questions.
No problem, if you decide to go with us, let me know
