Hello,
Here is the current status of deliveries (2008-10-12 13h00).
Servers to experiment and to play with:
- Kimsufi L OK -> 1 hour
- Kimsufi XL OK -> 1 hour
- Kimsufi 2XL OK -> 1 hour
- Kimsufi 3XL OK -> 1 hour
- Kimsufi 4XL OK -> 1 hour
Pro, business and critical servers:
- miniSP OK -> 1 hour
- SP bestof 4 days delay (The oldest order paid and not deployed is dated 2008-10-08 19:25:12)
- SP Max fr,es OK -> 1 hour
- SP Max de OK -> 1 hour
- SP Max uk,pl OK -> 1 hour
- EG Bestof 48hours delay (The oldest order paid and not deployed is dated 2008-10-10 12:01:08)
- EG Max OK -> 1 hour
- EG Large OK -> 1 hour
- MG Bestof OK -> 1 hour
- MG Max OK -> 1 hour
- MG Large OK -> 1 hour
- miniHG OK -> 1 hour
- HG Bestof OK -> 1 hour
- HG BiTurbo OK -> 1 hour
- HG Large OK -> 1 hour
Kimsufi:
We caught the delay up on the Kimsufi XL. Now the range is available in 1 hour (after the manual validation of the order, which takes between 5 minutes and 12 hours). We feel an increased number of orders for 1 week. If the trend continues this week we risk to be out of stock. We continue the special offer on the 2XL for orders for 3 months, 6 months and 12 months.
Pro:
This week we had a net increase of orders. We sold faster than expected, the stock of SP bestof and EG bestof. We have a slight delay in deliveries on these 2 items. From Monday, we increase the production on these references and the delay will be caught up fast. More generally, a lot of customers switch their Kimsufi to a Pro server.
Friday, we finished the development of the orders for all options (500GB USB disk, backup, the KVM etc). We should prod it on Monday or Tuesday.
We are working on the following options: the private VLAN, IP loadbalancing and the establishment of Standard, Premium and Business SLA. For the private VLAN and IP loadbalancing, we are looking at all internal wiring of the routing room to offer this service to all customers of all our datacentres (Paris 19, Roubaix 1 and Roubaix 2). On the SLA, we completed tests on the router RBX-60 https: / / travaux.ovh.com /? do = details & id = 2495 Now, we must reconfigure all the OVH routing infrastructure in terms of QoS. This work will take several more days. Indeed, we have more than 1200 racks in our datacentre and we must reconfigure all the switches of racks, distribution routers and backbone routers. The aim is to avoid abuse of bandwidth on Kimsufi and thus ensure better bandwidth for PRO offers. Here are the details of SLA, that will apply on servers.
You hve 100Mbps/client. This means that the customer has 100Mbps for all servers at Ovh. With Kimsufi, he can not exceed 100Mbps/client. With PRO offers, if he uses <20Mbps / server, it may exceed 100Mbps/client. All this without paying more. Everything is included in the price of servers. To overcome > 100Mbps/client and> 20Mbps/serveur, it can also buy more bandwidth.
The details:
- Without any additional fees (all included in the server price):
-------------------------------------------------- -----
- The Kimsufi, by default, "SLA Standard Burstable": 100 Mbps guaranteed in a non-permanent way, aka bandwidth burstable temporarily to 100Mbps. (temporarily means "less than 24 hours").
- If the customer uses bandwidth intensively and / or permanently, it is switched to "SLA Standard noBurstable" guarantee 10Mbps, not burstable.
Note:
Generally speaking, we do not want to give more guarantees for Kimsufi offers. Either the customer is an individual and does not need these guarantees or he is a PRO and he has to switch to PRO offers that have all necessary guarantees.
- PRO, default is "SLA Premium": the guaranteed bandwidth of 100Mbps, not burstable.
- If the customer uses > 100Mbps/client and is doing > 20Mbps/serveur, the server which is > 20Mbps will switch to SLA Premium Burstable: bandwidth guarantee of 20Mbps, 500Mbps burstable / server, the burst evolves between 500Mbps and 0Mbps according to peak time and rush hours and depends on the destination.
- With additional options that the customer can pay for (PRO only):
-------------------------------------------------- --------------------
If the customer wants > 100Mbps/client AND > 20Mbps/serveur, he may purchase option SLA Business. It may go to 1Gbps/client.
For servers with 100Mbps connection:
- SLA Business, 100Mbps guarantee, 500Mbps burstable / server at £149/month
For servers with 1Gbps connection:
- SLA Business, 100Mbps guarantee, 500Mbps burstable / server at £149/month
- SLA Business, guarantee 200Mbps, 500Mbps burstable / server at £299/month
- SLA Business, guarantee 300Mbps, 500Mbps burstable / server at £349/month
If the customer uses the burst intensively and / or permanently (temporarily means "less than 36 hours"). it is switched to
- SLA Business noBurstable guaranteed 100Mbps not burstable / server
- SLA Business noBurstable guaranteed 200Mbps not burstable / server
- SLA Business noBurstable guaranteed 300Mbps not burstable / server
We can summarize all this by:
- The Kimsufi are suitable for non-business use
- The PRO is suitable for professional use with the guarantees necessary
- With SLA Business, the customer can buy the bandwidth to go up to 1Gbps.
