Things I can do on a windows vps - Honey - 07-20-2019
So I temporarily got access to a windows vps, and for now Its just sitting there cuz I have no idea what to do on it, Its from Google Cloud Platform so the speed is good enough, any ideas of what potential use It could be of me?

For me, I mostly use it to upload and download big files. I used Windows VPS(RDPs) with 1 GBit connections from one of Shadow Hosting's node and it worked like a charm. I was actually migrating clients from the old node to the new node with files in GBs. Files were being downloaded faster than I open Filezilla and other programs necessary for migration.
So if you have any big file to migrate or store, do it. But don't use it as a backup because "temporarily" can be harmful for your "backup" files incase of any data loss.
Concluding my answer, my best chance would migrate websites(if you have any pending task like that).

Yeah good choice, There are indeed some big files that I may need to upload to my server, It'll definitely come handy in that.

You can set up phpvirtualbox and have vms in the cloud. It's a tool to run most os in the cloud, through your web browser.See setup here. I am planning to do so as soon as I get a vps. Then PLEASE
send me the link.
