Great price for a basic VPS. Post after your migration and let us know how it went.
Will do. Since a VPS is just a raw linux box you have ot set up everything yourself. I have my data restored there, just need to do a bit more setting up. Trying to remember how this new systemd junk works at the moment as my old one was on init still.
You can get a VPS for $5/month at Digital Ocean. You could use Amazon Web Services (AWS) and get a micro EC2 instance at no charge for the first year with new account. Microsoft Azure is another one which is very cost effective.
Uh, I don't think I every realized the base Digital ocean plans were that cheap. I've had boxes with that little ram before though and that can be hard. They are KVM based too which is nice. I just got:
KVM VPS
1024MB RAM
1x vCPU
25GB SSD Space
2TB Transfer
1Gbps Uplink
1x IPv4
/64 IPv6
KVM/Virtualizor
At $71/yr. I use to have 2 CPU and 2048 of ram for the same price, but we can see how that kind of deal worked out for that company...
