Ask HN: Reliable VPS in South America/Africa/Japan?

2 pointsdevereaux5 comments

For latency reasons, I am looking for VPS in South America (Brazil), Africa (South Africa) and Japan.

Besides Linode Japan, and Hetzner South Africa, the offers don't seem very interesting.

Ideally, I would like a KVM with throttling (or automatic poweroff) once the quota is reached, above 700 Mb of RAM, 1 Tb of quota for less than $10/month

Any suggestions?

I've used Angani (www.angani.co) previously and been happy with their services. They offer a $5 barebones option.

Where exactly are you located?

East coast, but I travel.

That's not just for me: I need low latency VPS there for resources that are updated frequently.

For Tokyo you could also check out Vultr or M247/VPS247

Unfortunately, VPS247 has no DC in JP: https://www.vps247.com/locations

And Vultr bandwidth costs are high. I may prefer linode known reliability and service to Vultr's unknowns.
