Replacement of VPSs 15 + 16 with new KVM VPS with improved specs
#11
Umm.... For sure. We all are learning here. I myself like the posts you make - your language is very good and contains great content. Moreover, I never mentioned you're attacking anyone. I was just focusing on the essence of his post.
Sayan Bhattacharyya,

Heartiest thanks to Post4VPS and Virmach for my wonderful VPS 9!

Why VPS location is so important?
I can understand if you use your VPS to host a game server where the latency is very important. Pinging a Chicago server the latency is between 180-205ms, I am trying from Sicily, south of Italy.
Due to European laws regarding user's data?
I recently read that it doesn't matter WHERE the data is stored but HOW it is used.
Hi @LightDestory You're right about that.  How it is used is important.  Naturally however some data networks are more efficient than others.  I'm sure you know that your ISP works with up and down load speeds and with packets.  Usually when I check a VPS out before I apply for it in a Giveaway, I check whether there is a mirror service on the sponsor's Website, that would provide you with a test IP.  You then use your computer to Ping that IP to see how fast your ISP works with the ISP.  Sometimes you may find even though the location of the test IP is closer to your ISP physical destination, that it may be slower than another location because of the network and how the ISP is sending its packets or the other way round.

I've found it often with the US for example that a location in Phoenix would work better speed and latency wise than one from Buffalo.  Also, there are all other factors that may have an impact on the speed.  At one stage there was an issue in the Phoenix network where packets had been leaked.  And that caused the speed to go down. The network had become overloaded and congested.  So it's always important to ping a test IP of the sponsor of the VPS.

So quite a number of the users of post4vps live near Europe.  Or in Europe.  You can see that the location in Europe then would be more positive for them than for locations in the US.  Particularly the Netherlands.  As in my own personal experience with testing the IPs of my ISP, I've seen The Netherlands and Germany speeds higher than the UK and France or the US with some of the locations I tested, even when at that time my ISP was closer in location to France than to the Netherlands or Germany and very far from the US.  The fastest for me at the time however was Germany - like hugely faster than other centers in Europe or the US.  I think the German network must be more efficient than France, possibly with how my ISP worked with the packets with Germany, but also, maybe Germany has a very good network packet wise.  So German location is very sought after here, but also any of the other locations in Europe in preference to those from the US.  

Having said that however, the datacentres have become so super efficient with how they manage the DNS of IPs, that they work it in a way that makes the packages move faster - so some of the US networks are excellent and compare very well with those in Europe.  For example Contabo in Germany has datacenters in both Germany and in the US.  I'm not a specialist in how they do it, but that must be one sponsor with its own datacenters in different locations that is really excellent with how it networks its IPs.  How I found it out was that I checked the IP from another host I'm working with who thought they were with a German location from a German sponsor - Contabo - but when I checked the IPs they were in the US.  So you're right.  It's the way they do it that counts most, but in the end it's how your ISP communicates with that IP that is the most important and generally in our experience certain locations work better, depending on testing it first. And locations in Europe may be faster.

I'm not a VPS holder from Hostlease, but Hostlease is also a main part in Post4VPS community. Hope we can get short reason why Hostlease stop to provide VPS 15 and VPS 16.

VPS 15 and VPS 16 are very unpopulair since I introduced the VPS 17 and later VPS 18. Due that nobody is taken the US location we have decided the last week intern with the group of hostlease by what we gonna do with those two vpses.

I'm personally happy with what Jordy is doing. Also, the two VPSs have a US location, and that doesn't seem to be as popular in the Forum either. Most users seem to be preferring locations in Europe.

In addition, we're getting a third VPS from Hostlease to replace VPS 15 and 16, that is probably going to have similar specs and also with a Europe location. So I think this is going to be a much improved situation for post4vps.com users.

Yes that is correct - we are deliver this week a brand new VPS to Post4VPS and this was offically planned for VPS 19 but I think that @deanhills will replace this one for 15 or 16.

(08-19-2019, 03:38 PM)tryp4vps Wrote: This is understandable. Hostlease has still been offering VPS 17 and 18, which are already very good ones.

I really do not mind they stop offering VPS 15 and 16, provided that they can be sure to offer the VPS 17 and 18 for long.

VPS 17 and VPS 18 are the biggest investment and one of the larges DC's in NL. We use Leaseweb and Media Tower for them and you see the results.

Agreeing with you @xdude, sponsors should last long rather than offer much. Moreover I feel Hostlease will be able to replace the two VPSes with really good ones.

@tiwil: You're right. Quality does matter.

Indeed VPSes 17 and 18 are great for those who want to host gameservers. Let's hope for the best from Hostlease!

You do not need to worry about it. VPS 17 and 18 will stay online as long HostLease wont sell their business like as we did before with Neq3Host which is currently down. But we do not have any plans to sell our company for now.


Yeah guys. I am still looking for one more VPS to fill the places for VPS 15 or VPS 16. Depends what @deanhills will do. But with a bit luck will we release this week the new NL KVM VPS with the same specs as VPS 18. For the other VPS we have no exact idea by what specs we provide. If you guys have suggest, please do let me know so I can discuss this with the rest of my team.

Regards,
Jordy.

At first, while reading the title, I was a bit horrified as to which VPSs are being discontinued, however, after reading the post It is apparent that this decision is clearly in the favor of the community, always looking forward to European VPSes!
Thanks to ShadowHosting and Post4VPS for my VPS 5!

Thank you for the feedback @Honey, you're not the only one who was "horrified".  I'll change the wording of the heading and post so people understand there is a replacement coming.
