Hey peeps,

Hope all are in good shape.

Well, am from India. Looking forward host a community site.
The main visitors are from India.

So, just wondering off what would be the ideal location of server for serving Indian(90%) & Asian Users(10%).

DO or Linode Indian DC or just any other location that fits my needs ?

Specs in need,
KVM
1 or 2core,
1GB Ram,
15GiGs SSD,
1TB,
1ipv4 + 1ipv6
Yearly price - max of 45$ ( which ever is lesser)
Scable option would be great if available.
Strictly for Production use.

Note : yes, I do have a budget Constraint? so lower price would be better

What should I do ?
Need a good peering with Indian providers will be necessary.

Any suggestions would be appreciated.??

    Boss, I appreciate your deal. But the fact is, am looking for a better peering with Indian providers so am stepping me out. ?

    Please clarify me ?.

    I believe I can take that into consideration.

    SG also very near to India.

    But someone clarify me, is do really location of DC matters ?

    Within India or Near to India ?

    ?

    As u say 90% is Indian traffic, the base plan from @ReadyDedis in Mumbai DC will work nice, fits your budget.
    Singapore is a good option too, bt way less local peering.

    Do the Users will see any performance drops while using Europe locations ?

    I mean in terms of speed ? Or in response time ? ??

    @deepak_leb said: see any performance drops while using Europe locations

    For a typical forum site (like LES for e.g.) this shouldn't matter at all. It will ideally be content driven, where the human content processing time should be far greater than internet content delivery time (otherwise you have bigger issues to worry about!).

    Putting it behind Cloudflare will give you some latency/caching improvements.

    So I would say focus more on the quality of hosting (and pricing constraints) and don't worry too much about the actual location of the server.

    It's just that am cancelling all my idle servers due to strict budget.

    ? He is actually correct, as long it is just a forum/something similar, somewhere in Europe should be good to use & fit your budget.
    Local peering is needed if you are hosting some video/image based product.
    I say you should go with the best specs & quality you get.
    Ping < 200 should be okay for India

    @Abdullah said: I say you should go with the best specs & quality you get.

    And just to add, EU is going to be much cheaper in the sense that you are likely to get much better resources/bandwidth/quality for a given price. SG is expensive due to bandwidth costs (and India is even worse on that scale). So I strongly recommend trying to find a good provider/service in the EU to get started. You can always rethink things once you're up and running and get better data points on the usage and resource requirements.

    Germany is pretty decent to india. To be quiet honest, a second or 3 wouldn't really matter much. Now Ryzen you said? Hmm. Hmmm.

    I'd venture that you overestimate the importance of local peering, especially in the early stages of a forum life. A good atmosphere is way more important. I mean look at this forum...don't even know where the hell it's hosted or what the latency is.

    Grab a bunch of lookingglass IPs, find something solid and roll with that.

    I'd also have a good look at sticking a CDN in front of it...that can mitigate some of the perceived latency effects.

    And do make arrangements for backup. As much as I love the local crew they are not quite in DO league

    Do you really want to start with a VPS? Tad overkill till the site gathers some traffic?

    What is the community site About?

    What CMS do you plan to use?

    Take into account that sometimes Routing

    @deepak_leb said: Within India

    Can include a road trip along the country, that will make look SG sweeter.

    For example,

    I have experienced packets going to Chennai ( Which is in another nearby state) when the destination is a DC ( Aride Ocean ) 8 Kilometre's away from me.

    @deepak_leb said: SG also very near to India.

    Yes, but in the case of SG too, There were instances of North America being a sort of pit stop.

    It's stable most of the time when it's

    India to most of Europe about 160 ms but mostly less than 200 most of the time as you mentioned.

    @deepak_leb Are you okay with Directadmin based shared hosting ?

    It's true that Hetzner provides more bang for your buck via their auction. But

    @Not_Oles said: folks in India

    Have a sweet tooth for OVH since they offer DDoS mitigation as standard with no additional cost.

    So, if you happen to be on the receiving end of such incidents frequently, Hetzner might pull the plug on you.

    Another reason to take into account is market saturation,

    We now have many providers even within India that make use of OVH like @HappyBee for example that offer VPS with dedicated ipv4 for less than $2 a month.

    @vyas said: he is planning ot use Ghost CMS.

    Is it not possible in the case of shared hosting with ssh access ?

    Thanked by (2)Not_Oles HappyBee
  • vyasvyas OGRetired

    @Rahul
    possible indeed, but easier with VPS. Not all shared hosting providers might provide SSH access.
