    I need to note based on several comments. The cost isn't for the hardware... It is for the dedicated 10 gbs connection. If you chop this down to a 1 gbs connection the price drops from around 2000 to 600. Also, this is for big business and not your average server. You need to have a specific need for that kind of throughput. Most don't need that kind of power.

      It would be nicer to compare a vps with dedicated server with the same specs. And compare for price and performance as most viewers probably are not looking at enterprise servers... And even same hardware, dedicated is still expensiver...

    The advantage of VPS with regards to downtime isn't really related to the uptime agreed in SLA, but rather because of the cheaper cost and more flexible instance sizes, you can afford to rent larger number of smaller VPSes and configure them in high availability setup (e.g. automatic fail over, continuous database replication, cluster storage system, multiple availability zone). Most high availability cluster systems will require that you have an odd number of masters, which means that you'll need to rent at least three machines to have proper HA system. If you absolutely need HA system, but your data throughput is actually fairly modest, VPS is going to be signficantly more cost effective than running dedicated servers.
    The smaller instances also means that it's easier to gradually add capacity than with dedicated servers, as you don't have to pay for unused capacity because the smallest dedicated server that your provider has is a 128-core beast.
    If you have a high availability setup, the SLA of individual instances becomes much less important. Though you'll need to make sure that your VPS provider allows you to configure anti affinity to ensure that your multiple VPSes are actually going to run on separate hardware.

    Dedixaded isn't needed until your domains go over a million hits/day resources wise. Having control on the box is an old way of thinking. Now with VPS, we're way more free & modular to manage our websites... and grossly a 1/10 of the monthly price. My 2 cents.

    Having dedicated network connection does not necessarily mean that you always have full bandwidth during peak periods. If your dedicated hardware providers or the data center that hosted your dedicated server oversubscribed their uplink connection or their physical network, you can still see drops during peak periods. Even if those parties don't do that, the local internet exchange, tier 1 network provider could be over loaded as well.

    • @ChrisTitusTech
      @ChrisTitusTech  Před 5 lety

      This can be the case, so you will have to do some trial and error for your needs. However, during my tests data packet had consistent speeds and gave me the full 10 Gbps. Where VPS was all over the place for internet speed.

    • @yvrelna
      @yvrelna Před 5 lety

      @@ChrisTitusTech If you really, really need reliable connection, you would want to have a peering arrangement with the parties that you depend the most (not to be confused with what AWS calls peering that isn't really peering at all in the traditional sense, they have Direct Connect instead which is closer in idea).
      Peering is when you ask your data centre provider or VPS/cloud provider to pull a private cable from your machines to another machines in the data center. This way you can be absolutely sure that no-one else can disrupt your connection to the other party.

    Thanks. Very informative.
    One thing I would add is that if you have a virtual server hosting your website, your website-associated email server may be shared with others. That means that if there are a bunch of spammers on your virtual server, your outgoing emails will not get through to your contacts. With a dedicated server, your email reputation is your own.

      You are paying for the 10gb throughput. If you chop this down to only 1 gigabit the price is roughly 600ish depending on the data center you choose. Again, this is throughput and meant for big business. Most people can't even begin to use this much power.

    Ah, Linode, DigitalOcean, Vultr, many others. I would love to see VDS compared to VPS as well. Seems like a worthwhile mid-point. Whoa. $2000/mo. For that price I would buy my own hefty rack unit and co-locate it some place and save money by no more than 18 months out.

  • @IKHMediaArchives
    @IKHMediaArchives Před 5 lety +2

    Chris who is your VPS provider, I am looking to switch my VPS provider and I would love to know who you use because Vultr is down more than it's up and I need to have a reliable VPS. Just like you I can't afford to use a dedicated server. The big reason I ask who your VPS provider is because you said they could co-locate your server, this is huge for me and the other question I have is latency if you did a ping to your server what would your ping be. Right now I have 35 ms as my normal ping with my VPS through Vultr which is a huge reason as to why I remain with them even though they are down frequently because when they are up they work wonderful.

    • @ChrisTitusTech
      @ChrisTitusTech  Před 5 lety

      Google Cloud Platform - cloud.google.com. However a cheaper solution would be skysilk or upcloud if you are looking for affordability. This assumes you want a dedicated vCPU, but if you just want a shared test box you can do GCP for free using a shared vCPU and they are pretty much free.

    • @yvrelna
      @yvrelna Před 5 lety

      If the thing you care most about is latency, you'd want to research a provider that runs a local data center as close as possible to where you are in the network topology. It doesn't matter if a certain provider have generally low ping, if they don't have a presence in your locality, their latency will still suck.

    There is a huge difference between cheap shared resources and dedicated resources cloud servers. On google cloud platform you can create virtual machines with almost 4TB of ram and 160 vCPUs. I'm sure there are use cases for rented dedicated machines but you can do so much more with AWS/GCP/Azure like automatic scaling of resources based on traffic/load.

    • @rocketsurgeon1349

      or even setting up nodes in different datacenters across the world and direct the traffic to the closest server based on location...and if one goes down it will automatically be directed to the closest responding. stuff like that can be done pretty easy and cheap. and it can all be done from your terminal.

    Nothing like having your own iron in a rack somewhere. I belonged to a couple of non-profit colocation projects about 20 years ago that sought to provide free colocation space for 501(c)3 charitable organizations and private individuals, supported by the donations of people who either supported charities or could afford to kick in a bit more than the minimum cost to colocate a machine. At ~$50 per RU it was dirt cheap for access to facilities like Hurricane Electric, with what was then a screaming Gigabit backbone connection. Too bad it was mismanaged and fell apart.

    I'm surprised at how much you're spending on a shared server, Chris. I think I've only ever had dedicated servers, always as a media server. I think the most expensive dedicated server I paid for was about 20 euro. I'm in the US, so that varied from sometimes about 15 bucks up to maybe 22.
    www.kimsufi.com/us/en/index.xml
    You could have yourself a dedicated i5 server with 2TB or more storage for about 20 euro. If I were to pay for a shared server, I can't see justifying spending as much as I would for a dedicated one.
