Inception Hosting - The sales strike back - Part II (Triple BW + double disk) [NL+UK]

edited March 2021 in Offers

Hi Folks,

This is just an update to last weeks offer post as it started to get messy and it has been a week, the position has changed a bit in that London is now nearing full and Amsterdam has more space, I will again repeat this is going to be a limited-time sale and I cannot say exactly when it will end, but when it does that will be that and these will probably not be repeated.

This sale is just to clear up the irregularities and balance things back out within Inception Hosting before launching new hardware so you have the chance to grab an absolute bargain!

I have been given permission to triple the bandwidth on top of what is already double disk or more so this really is now an unbeatable offer!

KVM in London and Amsterdam.

  • CPU in London: Intel(R) Xeon(R) CPU E3-1270 v6 @ 3.80GHz (4.20GHz max)
  • CPU in Amsterdam: Intel(R) Xeon(R) E-2276G CPU @ 3.80GHz (4.90GHz max)





Special Offer Notes:

  • Those that took advantage in last weeks offer will get automatically upgraded bandwidth/transfer but I need some time as it is manual, feel free to raise a ticket if you don't see BW/Transfer matching the specs below after 7 days I am human and miss things.
  • Due to the nature and reason for this specific sale being a unique one it is not possible to convert existing orders into this deal however all efforts to allow this sort of thing in the future will be made.
  • The refund policy for these is strictly 48 hours from the time of the order being placed not the standard 14 days.
  • Stacking is no longer permitted due to the administrative burden.
  • SSD Cached may be making an appearance it is simply not a priority right now however available stock has been released at regular pricing.

This advert is not exclusive, please feel free to share it, it is being posted to LES first though <3

Questions and comments are all very welcome!

Cheers everyone!

Ant.

  • @InceptionHosting in the future, are there any plans to open new locations in USA or Germany with Clouvider network?

    Due to a provisioning issue to many people got put on 1 particular node, I believe it was a v5 (there are 3 of them now actually) I am actively working to resolve it but if it is not at acceptable speeds in a few days please feel freer to open a ticket for help/migration, you might end up on another E3-1270v5 node but it will be must less densely populated (good old SolusVM)

    The real-world difference between a v5 and v6 is near nothing.

    Got one in NL, haven't had any active service with @InceptionHosting for years, but this just confirms the reputation. The performance is absolutely stellar.
    However, latency to some ISPs could be a bit lower, routing isn't quite ideal. One example is T-Mobile NL (AS13127), I'm getting around 36ms to T-Mobile ADSL2 and I would expect around 22ms instead.

     1  185.193.158.1 (185.193.158.1)  10.487 ms  11.270 ms  11.272 ms

     3  194.127.172.4 (194.127.172.4)  0.315 ms  0.321 ms  0.308 ms
     4  et-0-0-41.cr4-ams2.ip4.gtt.net (154.14.30.81)  0.458 ms  0.454 ms  0.434 ms

     6  ip4.gtt.net (87.119.98.86)  15.065 ms  14.971 ms  14.952 ms
     7  ams-core-2.bundle-ether1.tele2.net (130.244.205.179)  18.748 ms  18.717 ms  19.114 ms

     9  ams-core-2.bundle-ether1.tele2.net (130.244.205.179)  18.356 ms  18.744 ms  18.711 ms

    Similar results to the AS13127 IP used by OVH smokeping (62.58.50.4), 19ms compared to 3ms from Dronten. O2 DE (AS6805) could also be a tad lower (+5ms compared to Dronten).

    Other than that, thank you for the amazing offer!

    The problem here is that Tele2 NL is singlehomed behind Tele2 Sweden. That’s no tier 1 network. So they don’t have peering in place with tier 1 networks at all of their pops. In this case, traffic routes through Copenhagen and Goteborg apparently.

    Don’t know if they peer with Telia or one of Clouviders other transits in NL. This is probably not the optimal route.

    The good news is that the old Tele2 NL network is being discountinued. T-Mobile has transit from CW and Level(3).

  • Thank you all for the orders, the sales have now come to an end, I will do an assessment to see if there is any more available space on the spare nodes for next week or when I get time (there is a lot more time involved in this that people probably realize) :)

    To pre-empt the inevitable question: I am sorry, I cannot do just 1 more.

  • Oh, missed this thread entirely, would have taken that 45 EUR plan for the 4GB ram. Currently considering just setting up my own DA panel for my personal sites instead of using cPanel at Hostmantis. Never mind. I do have another VPS with IH but not enough ram.
