lemmy.worldDo you know a VPS prices and features comparator website? - Lemmy.worldHello, Do you know of any websites that compare the prices and features of “cloud service providers”, in particular VPS (Virtual machine) offers? So far, I’ve found this : - https://www.vpsbenchmarks.com/ [https://www.vpsbenchmarks.com/] - https://vpscomp.com/ [https://vpscomp.com/] (found here [https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=9241159]) - https://www.serverhunter.com/ [https://www.serverhunter.com/] (found here [https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=20537209]) - https://en.metadedi.net/ [https://en.metadedi.net/] (found here [https://en.metadedi.net/]) - https://cloudoptimizer.io/ [https://cloudoptimizer.io/] (found here [https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=26846163]) - https://github.com/baaastijn/ovh_pricelist [https://github.com/baaastijn/ovh_pricelist] (OpenSource, limited to OVH) - Awesome list of Cloud VPS with price breakdown [https://github.com/leogallego/awesome-vps-price-breakdown] (last price update : 2021) - A price list of curated VPS hosting providers [https://github.com/boywithkeyboard/vps-hosters] (last price update : 2022) - https://github.com/joedicastro/vps-comparison [https://github.com/joedicastro/vps-comparison] (last updated : 2017) ## Comment about vpsbenchmarks.com [https://www.vpsbenchmarks.com/] vpsbenchmarks.com [https://www.vpsbenchmarks.com/] s what I’m looking for, but I find it incomplete. For instance: - For Scaleway, I count 4 plans [https://www.vpsbenchmarks.com/instance_types/scaleway] on vpsbenchmarks, whereas I count 45 plans on Scaleway’s official website [https://www.scaleway.com/en/pricing/?tags=compute] - For DigitalOcean, I count 8 plans [https://www.vpsbenchmarks.com/hosters/digitalocean] whereas I count 32 plans on DigitalOcean’s official website [https://www.digitalocean.com/pricing/droplets] - For Hetzner, I count 9 plans [https://www.vpsbenchmarks.com/hosters/hetzner] whereas I count 22 plans on Hetzner’ official website [https://www.hetzner.com/cloud] I may not have searched properly, but I haven’t found a page that lets you compare VPS offers with identical features (Shared vCPU, Dedicated vCPU…), between two cloud providers. ## Comment about vpscomp.com [https://vpscomp.com/] I didn’t find Hetzner, OVH… on vpscomp.com [https://vpscomp.com/]. ## Comment about serverhunter.com [https://www.serverhunter.com] serverhunter.com [https://www.serverhunter.com] is my favorite service. Problem: I only see the integration of OVH dedicated servers [(https://www.serverhunter.com/company/ovh/)]. I couldn’t find OVH VPS [https://us.ovhcloud.com/public-cloud/compute/]. ## Comment about metadedi.net [https://en.metadedi.net/] I understand that metadedi.net [https://en.metadedi.net/] is limited to dedicated servers and I’m not sure about the update dates. Also, the GitLab project [https://gitlab.com/Ne00n/metaDedi-Filters] indicated on the about page [https://en.metadedi.net/index.php?p=about] no longer exists. ## Comment about cloudoptimizer.io [https://cloudoptimizer.io/] For example, OVH and Scaleway are missing. ## Where do I do my research? I searched for this type of service on : - Google - I found this on Hackernews : - Ask HN: What are good hosting providers? [https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=20537209] - Show HN: Server Hunter – Easily browse over 11,000 VPS and Dedicated Servers [https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=19140834] - Show HN: Easy cloud instance comparison (AWS, GCP, Azure, IBM, Alibaba and more) [https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=26846163] - reddit seflhosted [https://old.reddit.com/r/selfhosted/] - Lemmy Selfhosted [https://lemmy.world/c/selfhosted] - GitHub [https://github.com/search?q=VPS+price&type=issues] - https://github.com/dalisoft/awesome-hosting [https://github.com/dalisoft/awesome-hosting] ## My VPS comparison service of dream - OpenSource - With an API - OpenData available (downloadable in csv, yaml or json format) - When available, price fetch from cloud providers’ pricing APIs, otherwise via web scraping - Price history view - View to compare VPS benchmark results, for example, based on https://github.com/masonr/yet-another-bench-script [https://github.com/masonr/yet-another-bench-script] ## Question Do you know of a service that looks like this? If not, do you think it should exist? Best regards, Stéphane
