ForthCloud – $5/month 512MB Virtuozzo Container in the US and the UK

Laputa

      
Andrew, from Forthcloud, sent in an e-mail with an offer for LowEndBox readers. ForthCloud was founded over a year ago and is a registered business in the state of Nevada. Their business registration information can be found here. Unlike many other offers, this one uses Parallels Virtuozzo, rather than OpenVZ, Xen or KVM. The result of this is that no SolusVM is being used, but the Parallels Panel. There will be at least 4 pieces of each piece of data distributed across their cloud system, which Andrew tells me provides more security than RAID10. Nodes are self-healing, which means there is an automated fail-over system in place. ForthCloud is going to get their own ASN and IPs soon, so that may indicate an upcoming IP renumbering. All hardware in the US is owned; hardware in the UK is rented. As usual, leave your reviews and remarks in the comments!
