The Lounge What is on Your Mind? Cut Over to New Data Center and Upgraded OS Done. :) Post 303022848 by Neo on Saturday 8th of September 2018 12:23:36 PM

I am not into VPS and clouds. We have tried them many times.

They are not reliable and perform poorly.

My experience is if you want reliability, spend the money and get a dedicated server in a well placed data center.

In my view "the cloud" is over-hyped, unreliable and very insecure.
