Just wanted to let the LET community know about our opening on Jun/29/2013. ioFlare will be a performance VPS provider with a focus on IO intensive VPS offerings powered by pure SSD storage space and lots of it in a true HA environment with automatic failover. All VPS are running on KVM.
We have been testing, tweeking, breaking, and than breaking things again for over a year now and finally are ready to open the doors.
Here is a sample of what are most basic plan will look like: (this is not set in concrete and may change before we go live)
Price: $5/mo
CPU: 6 cores (750 units)
Ram: 0.75 GB
Pure SSD Space: 15GB
Bandwidth: 0.75 TB premium bandwidth
Port: 100Mbit
Unmanaged service
Through our testing we are seeing a average of 1.2GB/s sequential and 40-50k IOPS on the VMs.
I'll update this with more details almost on a daily basis as we wind down to opening day.
