Great service for small personal blog or a testbed. OpenBSD has httpd + acme client for SSL termination & automated rotation so the base system has just enough to host a low traffic website. For anything that requires uptime one will have to buy multiple VMs and handle the uptime story themselves, since they go down regularly for maintenance.

The fact that they donate back to OpenBSD is great though. I own a VM there for testing stuff.

openbsd.amsterdam is notable because they use the openbsd native vmm as the vm host. It is obsd all the way down over there.

It is a small and no frills service but the sys-admin, who runs the project, is very helpful and attentive. That is to say probably much better and human customer service than the big players. There are definite downsides, but if a project fits, highly recommended.

They are cool, man they've grown. I used that when there were ~20 VM's on there. Its a great project but think its only physically in Amsterdam which is why I ended up moving back to vultr, as they have many more options.

Man I always look at this project with nothing by awe. I'd love to start something like this... if you're in central Switzerland and would like to copy their model, hit me up.

+1 for obsd.ams , great VPS!

If you can, it really makes sense to look for low cost dedicated servers. For $35/month I get a whole machine with dual L5520 and 24 GB of ram. I used to have a little nicer server for a little less, but that provider had to close because their costs for electricity and space went up too fast. Yes, the L5520 is ancient, but my server needs are tiny and it's fun to have a whole machine.

Look on webhostingtalk or lowendbox or lowendtalk.
