Ask HN: Hosting Services
6 points by krainboltgreene on Jan 3, 2011 | hide | past | favorite | 2 comments
The Short: I need a hosting service that knows what the hell they're doing, and that includes password management.

The Long: I recently (tonight) had to cancel my subscription to VPSLink since they can't manage passwords in an intelligent way. (Hint: If your response to a password bug is "Make your password shorter" then screw you.) I need some insight into the best hosting services. I need control over my server, I need to be able to upgrade when I'm ready for more, and it needs to be within the right price range.

What does Hacker News suggest?




Linode.


AWS, GAE, Heroku, Linode, Slicehost, Rackspacecloud seem like viable places to start. Heroku is more rails focused - so you can save your time looking at them if non-rails project.
