I am looking to run a few root servers and my ideal was going to be Netcup’s RS units cause they have a good rep and EU & US choices aren’t bad. However, Netcup isn’t currently offering them in Manassas VA (US), which was a requirement for me to kick-start it.

My project is already into the final line, and this was a bit of a bombshell, so I have to figure out who else offers near equivalents for the same thing.

One thing that is key is backup and their Snapshots (Copy-On-Write) were a big deal for me as I am dealing with 3rd party data.

Who else can offer the same in both EU/US with the same storage options and so on?

Appreciated

Edit*

I checked with OVH and at the moment, they only have Canada for options. US is sold out. Feels weirdly wrong. Netcup don’t have a timeline for US updates.

    Same here. Makes me consider just doing my own thing instead and rolling my own extra backup system. Something to consider.

    That aside, I’m surprised at how there is a VPS limitation at both Netcup and OVH. Netcup is selling ARM as the closest alternative. OVH is selling Canada as the closest option. I found it weird.
