You can always start with the Oracle always free tier if you're ok with a bit less than you are looking at.
- 4 cores (ARM)
- 24 GB RAM
- 50 GB boot + 200 GB block storage
Not really sure how they offer all this for free tbh
wtf i was thinking you were kidding, a vps with 24gb ram for free??
The huge downside it's that it's from Oracle, but at that price...
I think they hope someone misconfigures their VM and BOOM, huge bill incoming!
Not exactly. The always free tier just cuts you off if you try to go over your limits. It won't let you allocate stuff that it doesn't allow. I don't really understand how they can offer so much for free, but my consensus has mostly been "It's arm, and they probably spy a bit". Which some people are alright with, some people aren't. You can technically strip the OCI Agent from your VPS if you care about that second bit.
What do you need it for? Using just HDD this server will be kinda slow. If this is just about storage, I'd recommend getting a good VPS from Hetzner, Netcup or php-friends and extend storage using a Hetzner Storage Box. 1TB for just 3,xx EUR or 5TB for around 12 EUR.
As a benefit you'll not have to deal with failing drives and you do easy backups using snapshots.
I would recommend storing pict-rs images and db backups on B2, much cheaper at only $5/TB.
Pict-rs has configuration options for using B2, and you cna use a script or a Kubernetes operator to automate backups to B2.
Edit: nvm, it appears that storage boxes are cheaper. Not sure how they're managing to do that.
I second this! I have been with Hetzner for a couple of years now, pretty happy overall. You could get a decent setup for around 20-25 EUR/m. For 25 you could get a 5TB storage box with a 4core/8GB/160GB SSD VPS, which, IMHO is a decent deal.
As for latency, which I saw you asked about, I have a VPS in their Falkenstein DC and I get 35-40ms from Greece (on a Gigabit FTTH, normalised for LAN latency)
I've just checked and the lowest price is € 38,91, or am I in the wrong section?
Yes, you're in the wrong section. You are looking at dedicated servers, and they are talking about VPS'. You can find them at https://www.hetzner.com/cloud, /u/Mallias was speaking about the CPX31 (under "Shared vCPU (x86)")
