What VPS hosting provider offers resource allocation to linux AND windows server AND through the same interface on demand?
(Please do not recommend EC2 a2ba rackspace or slicehost or any of their resellers or affiliates)
Ability to Add/Delete Server
Control Panel Access
API Access
Mobile portal (including mobile backup/restore)
Rebuild Server
Console Access
Full root access including SSH
Backups / Restore
Resizing
(Not important but a plus)
Add Additional IP's
Rescue Mode Coming Soon
API File Injection Coming Soon
SLA
We basically want the ability to move resources the way we want from platform to platform and create backups if possible , but all from the same interface. (Without having to have 2 accounts)
If we want to delete a "node" or "slice" and start a new node with the allocated resources we can and for whatever operating system we want ..
...Snap then Delete a linux environment and then reallocate the resources to a windows one ? Done.
...Snap then Delete a windows server 2003/08 environment and then reallocate the resources to a centOS or Redhat one ? Done.
We want this ability on the fly without a human interaction by the VPS providers support techs.
All thoughts are welcome but the tip goes to the first person with a solid recommendation !
You can leave an optional "tip" with Mahalo's virtual currency, Mahalo Dollars. If you are asking a difficult question that might require some research, or if you'd like a wide variety of feedback, a higher tip often leads to more answers to your question.
