[Spry Servers] NVMe and Block Storage Coming Soon!

New products on the horizon!

In the coming weeks, we'll be launching two new exciting products: NVMe VPS and Block Storage as a service. BSaaS?

Our new RAID-10 NVMe virtual servers will be perfect for those I/O intensive applications, such as SQL, Redis, etc. We plan on launching this service by the end of this week, or the beginning to middle of next week.

The new block storage will be sold as an add-on to any of our dedicated servers, VPS or colocation services. The block storage is powered by HGST HelioSeal SAS drives in a mirrored ZFS configuration. (RAID-10 equivalent) It will be a perfect way to add some inexpensive extra storage to your servers. This service is planned to be launched as soon as our developers have completed our billing module. We're hoping to have this service launched within the next 3-4 weeks.

Keep your eyes open for announcements and product launch sales!

*Please note, initially these products will only be available in Phoenix, AZ.

  • Congratulations.

    Do you have a looking glass for Phoenix? Or is it a DC we are already familiar with?

    I'm starting to evaluate Phoenix as an alternate for Dallas for DR planning.

    Thanks!

    Here you go: https://lg.phx1.spryservers.net/

    It's the Aligned Energy DC. It's a huge facility, but I don't think there are too many other "hosting" providers in there, so I'm not sure if you'd be familiar. :)

    We can definitely help you out with DR planning, whether it's servers, colo or just plain network storage.

    Full disclosure: The above is with a couple SAS SSDs I'm using to test out, as the NVMe drives haven't come in yet. NVMe should be faster.

    Tbh, not sure why it's so high either. They're HGST 12G SAS SSDs, my first time using these particular ones. I had them sitting around for awhile, and decided to use them for boot disks for this Hypervisor. (And created a small lvm volume group to play around with VMs) Though it's also a decent RAID controller. (PERC 730)
