Hetzner AX-Line Vs Dell Line

Like lets say I brought their DEll Servers: https://www.hetzner.com/dedicated-ro...er/matrix-dell

Can I upgrade later, lets say I want more RAM or more SSD Disk?

Whats your experience about this.

I am thinking to buy AMD EPYC 64 core Server
But I am confused in AMD EPYC 7702p vs 7702. Both spesification is same but price wise there is aprox 20% diffrent.
So my question is 7702 is good or bad? why it is cheaper?

I am thinking to buy this server. It is good? Please post your valuable feedback

an guy providing me hetzner dedicated server at 6800INR ( 76.91 EURO ) ( 93.22 USD )
here is configuration :-
-Intel Xeon E3-1275v5 (3.8 ghz,boostable upto 4.5 ghz) (8 threads)
-ipv4 1 ip
-ipv6 (/64 subnet)
-Ram: 64 GB(ECC DDR4)
-Storage: 2x 512 GB high speed NVME SSD(m.2) (700mbps - 1.5gbps) (software raid included)
Port speed: dedicated 1GBps(unmetered)
- NIC 1 Gbit - Intel I210 (network controller)
Location :- Germany

i want the same server from hetzner directly. i searched in server auction but NIC is I219 did not find I210
anyone could tell is I219 is better than I210 or not? i am newbie
and the configuration he sent same config is available in hetzner or not?
and that guy said he have rack from hetzner, what about it??

i am asking in forum because i can get more knowledge and explaination here

please share your replies.

Hello, I am looking for a good server to run bigbluebutton on.
There will be max 400 users active at the same time.

I was thinking of these dedicated servers:

Dedi-1:

- CPU: 2x Intel Xeon E5-2690 (or E5-2690v2)
- 64GB 10600R ECC Registered 4x 16GB
- Raid controller Dell PERC H310
- 1Gbit/s up and down
- 2x 1TB SSD


Dedi-2:

- CPU: 2x Intel Xeon E5-2690v4
- 64GB DDR4
- Raid controller Dell PERC H310
- 1Gbit/s up and down
- 2x 1TB SSD

Can the Dedi-1 server with the E5-2690 handle this?
If you have a other suggestion please let me know. But the CPU needs to be from the Xeon E5 Family.

We've been with Hetzner for years and, while satisfied with the hardware and technical support and infrastructure, quite unhappy with support/sales/abuse departments where it always feels like they're doing one a favor in even answering and often make little effort to actually help.

So my question is if there's any hosting provider to match what they offer? We want to upgrade from our current servers and one type of servers we looked into are https://www.hetzner.com/dedicated-rootserver/ax41 which you can get in Germany* for 39 EUR/month (plus 39EUR setup fee) (prices without VAT as we're outside EU). This is a AMD Ryzen 5 3600 Hexa-Core which has a passmark > 17,000 and comes with 64GB RAM and 2 x 512 GB NVMe SSD. When I found something similar with OVH (slightly better CPU, 3600X instead of 3600), it 105 USD per month when committing to 24 months which is more than double.

Another type we were looking at is the https://www.hetzner.com/dedicated-rootserver/ax51

Anyway, any matching offers elsewhere? We can probably take some bandwidth limitation and cool with either EU or US locations.



*They have a center in Finland but when I did a bit of research it seemed it offers much worse network connectivity so while 5 EUR cheaper per server, doesn't seem to be worth the risk.

Rackspace has recently tripled their prices with us after our contract was up. So, we have servers that they are trying to force us to sign a new contract with them for a considerably higher price.

So, with that being said, we need 5 dedicated machines with these specs or similar:

Server Platform: Dual Processor Multi-Core Dedicated Server - Dell R720
• Processor: Intel® Xeon® Processor E5-2640, 15M Cache, 2.50 GHz, Hex Core QTY: 2
• Random Access Memory: 128GB
• RAID, Set 1: RAID 1
• Drive Selection, Set 1: 600GB 15K SAS 3.5inch QTY: 2
• RAID, Set 2: RAID 5
• Drive Selection, Set 2: 600GB 15K SAS 3.5inch QTY: 3
• Drive Partitioning: Rackspace Suggested Partitioning QTY: 1
• Operating System: Windows Server 2016 Datacenter 64Bit QTY: 8

We will need about 12 ip addresses per machine.

We will supply our own windows licensing. Drive space cannot be less but definitely would like more space.

They would need to be in the USA. The time frame for 1 machine would be needed as soon as possible whereas the other 4, we will need as time permits to move the data over.

We need reliability, which is something Rackspace does well.

I hope I covered everything.

Thanks!

We are renting some servers in hetzner fsn (about 40) in different dcs with 10g connectivity. About 1 or 2 times in month we have network problems. 30 or 40 % of packet loss for one or two minutes.
It always connected to one datacenter . For example we have that problem with 7 servers in dc14 from 13:39:00 till 13:40:30 cest. Contacting support always leads to big works like additional logs, mtr and etc. We are losing a lot of time.
Hetzner support always says that the problem is on our side. But sometimes they propose to free exchange of server or server migration. But they never confirm problem on their side. That's all. We are using very different server configuration from kubernetes on bare metal to hyper-v vms with sql server. Most of our servers are amd epyc ax161.

The problems was really serious in December. We have constant problems (once a day) with all new servers in dc15. We resolved it by relocating servers to dc16 and problem disappeared for some months.

Currently we really don't know what to do. In march we had it 3 times with dc4 and dc13(not sure). Does someone has the problem? Can you advice hosting with great support and not very high prices?

hello,

For about 100eur, i can get managed Hetzner server: hetzner.com/managed-server

OR unmanaged Hetzner server + platinumservermanagement.com/ (or + myw.pt/devops).


What will be a better option?

I have no experience as System Administrator.

I will like to keep the server fast, optimized, and online.

I don't plan to host many websites on the server, I need a server for a couple of large websites.

So optimization of servers for sites is very important to me.

For optimization I mean, cache optimization, database optimization, server optimization for WordPress, etc...

Is anyone have experience with Hetzner managed servers?


Best Regards

I'm currently designing a new server architecture in colab with a server tech, we'll need 4 dedicated servers and he has recommended to setup server virtualization via Virtuozzo, his reasoning is that it will make it easy to migrate to better hardware when needed. This seems like a good idea but some devs are telling my that it will degrade the performance of the boxes is this true? His plan is to install OS on 2 x SATA(Raid 1) drives and then place the virtualization on 2 x SSD's (Raid 1)
I would like a 2nd opinion on this,
Does the virtualization degrade performance, IF it does then by how much? Is it really this convenient to use such a virtualization setup in reference to migration? Any other thing to consider?

Thanks!

This current admin company is driving me insane! They are literally making my server worse...

I have lost so much money in production time of not being able to develop websites!

This sever is for basic business sites.

So I am moving this server from dedicated self-managed (with 3rd party admin) and now need a fully managed server.

This is just to host multiple websites. so we very rarely have issues on the server.

I need cpanel/whm

I am used to having multiple processors with multiple cores, but they are quite old, so maybe the more powerful processors can beat it?

It's an old server but has been a workhorse for development with no real issues.

i'd like the equivalent or better. Ideally under $200 month ($150 would be great!)

-- is this even possible?

who do you recommend? Any black friday/cyber Monday specials?
