My reddit username is tied to multiple embarassing things I did when I was a lot more immature, during my early 10s, and now that I'm in my late 10s, I'd rather not have my embarassing 2018 things affect my 2025 things.

A personal datacenter with 3-digit terabytes of storage, terabytes of RAM, and 3-digit CPUs. Unless I win the lottery (and the safe withdraw rate on these investments are high enough), I won't be getting any of this.

 

I run a Clickhouse database. My usecase is 99% writes and 1% reads - I rarely query the database. Currently, the tables (excluding system logs) use 6GB of the 80GB on my Ionos VPS, with the VPS having 50GB free space total.

In the far future, when that 50GB starts to run out, are there any cheap storage services out there that support a filesystem or a database? Due to querying the data so rarely, read speed isn't that big a deal, and if the storage is on HDD, so be it.

I've been getting by with Ionos, as a Filipino user with a VPS in America. The support was helpful when I had cloud panel issues the first month, but again your mileage may vary.

It's not perfect, but for me, it's good enough.

I've been looking to get myself a VPS. It's my first time, too.

A friend of mine recommended Hetzner to me, so I signed up for them, twice, but was rejected due to "some concerns with the information".

So I'm looking for alternatives now. I stumbled upon Ionos but I saw a ton of negative Reddit posts, which is giving me doubt.

Update 1: I found https://lemmy.ml/post/19647638 - some positive feedback about Ionos, but the more opinions the better

Update 2: I proceeded with purchasing one anyway, and the experience has been smooth so far, so that's nice. But it's only been a couple hours since purchase so we'll wait and see.
