Ask HN: Which VPS provider will survive the coming winter?
by jmnicolas on Hacker News.
Hi, I live in France and the government is preparing a law to be able to cut electricity this winter, so I guess my OVH VPS in Gravelines isn’t assured to run 24/7. On it I run a small website with about 1000 visits per day. It’s not vital that it remains up at all times (it doesn’t bring money) but if I can do it for cheap I’m looking to relocate this VPS in a country where electricity won’t be a problem. Anything in Europe seems as bleak as France. Not sure about the US. Even Finland that has its own nuclear power plants is preparing to ration electricity. The only country that has cheap energy seems to be Russia, but I can’t get a VPS there for obvious reasons. Any suggestions?
