We’ve had the opportunity to re-provision some server hardware into a new physical configuration that provides maximum disk, CPU and RAM throughput at our main Sydney POP, exceeding what hardware vendors can deliver at any reasonable price-point from a single chassis.
It’s been an “interesting” set of work, but it’s produced a very fast Hosting Platform for customer VPS.
We’ve moved our own website to this system and seen a content delivery throughput increase and we’re sure customers with large memory/RAM and fast CPU with small, quick, local disk needs will see similar processing increases..
FYI,
Richard.
