Hello,
I am considering getting a VPS or Hybrid Server account from KnownHost but would like to get some recommendation and advice.
I currently run a web site that's basically a mirror archive of a network54 forum. My site archives the contents of the forum and serves as a repository of message postings and images, stored in a MySQL database and directly in the file system respectively. My mirror site does not generate huge traffic but it has grown to be pretty big in size, and I have outgrown my current shared hosting account's resource capacity. The MySQL db is approaching 1GB in size and all the images and the mirror site take up almost 18GB.
My site bandwidth usage traffic is about 15GB/month, which is not a lot, so my main concern is to find a site that has enough disk space and resource capacity to accomodate my archive and also allow for the mirror to grow. Right now my archiving software consists of perl scripts running as cron jobs to update the MySQL database with a PHP front end for the content management system.
My question is, is my site something that a VPS or Hybrid Server account on Known Host can accomodate in terms of resource usage? If so I don't mind getting a 50GB Hybrid Server account as my mirror archive is a long term project that I would like to continue to host and maintain.
Thank you for any feedback!
