I have recently been looking at Virtual Private Server Hosting in Ireland. It is for a non-business, non-web application. The application does not require much hard disk space (a few GB would suffice) but it has a very large bandwidth usage requirement - tens of TBs per month.
I haven't been able to find a package that would fit my requirements. Most packages have what I consider to be a low usage cap, in the range of 100s of GBs per month. I also consider most of them to be poor value for money when compared to larger companies abroad. Perhaps that is an unfair comparison given that the Irish market probably isn't huge. However, some of the prices on offer are far more expensive than what is available abroad for inferior specs, I'm surprised some of these hosts get any business at all...
If anyone knows of a good high-bandwidth VPS offering that is physically hosted in Ireland please shout.
These are the entry-level offerings I've come across:
SecureHost.ie - €19.99/month, 1GB RAM, 10GB HDD, 10TB traffic/month
Host.ie - €29.99/month, 1GB RAM, 10GB HDD, 50GB traffic/month
SpiralHosting.com - €40.00/month, 1GB RAM, 40GB HDD, 1TB traffic/month
MyHost.ie - €14.99/month, 512MB RAM, 15GB HDD, 500GB traffic/month
Blacknight.com - €12.95/month, 512MB RAM, 15GB HDD, 500GB traffic/month
LetsHost.ie - €20.00/month, 1GB RAM, 20GB HDD, 500GB traffic/month
WebWorld.ie - €10.00/month, 1GB RAM, 25GB HDD, 500GB traffic/month
Not interested in Azure or AWS.
