benbroon AWS EC2 General Price Cut

Can someone recommend dedicated server providers with US, EU and Asia locations? Hetzner looks great but they only have EU location.

benbroon Ask HN: Is your company sticking to on-premise servers? Why?

Can you recommend dedicated hosting provider that: 1. Has US, EU and Asia regions. 2. Let you rent servers per month. 3. Has decent pricing. Not premium, doesn't have to be low cost. I expect excellent egress pricing and 1/2-1/4 cost for CPU compared to the cloud. 4. Reliable network. GCP premium network is very good. How does dedicated providers and VPS providers (Linode and DO) compare? 5. Easy to use management and dashboard. Experienced really bad dashboards and hard to use Java tools to install and manage dedicated servers.

benbroon Ask HN: Is your company sticking to on-premise servers? Why?

How do you manage installation and upgrades of dedicated servers? What do you use for block storage and object storage? Kubernetes and Ceph seems to be hard to setup and maintain.

benbroon On the Road to WebRTC 1.0, Including VP8

Is there a chance you'll share your Erlang DTLS implementation or challenges in the erlang mailing list? DTLS support for WebRTC and similar use cases is still missing. https://bugs.erlang.org/browse/ERL-853 http://erlang.org/pipermail/erlang-questions/2018-January/09...

benbroon On the Road to WebRTC 1.0, Including VP8

benbroon New autoplay policy in Chrome
