Hi,

I am new to this board.

I am looking to move my drupal 6 + ubercart website (www.flowerdeliveryhongkong.com) from a vps to a dedicated server. The who's online block often shows 2000-3000 guests. (I don't know how this is really measured and how much difference it makes.)

Please could anybody recommend a hong kong dedicated server. Does anybody have any experience with Hong Kong Technology Information (HKTI)?

Thanks

You can try VPSHOSTING

Hello,

You can try VPS Hosting, who are local HK operators who "get" Drupal. Nice guys with an SME feel to them.

You can try VELOCITY, the WWW practice there is run by nice guys (disclosure: former workmates)

You can try Rack Space, they have big iron and can certainly accommodate your needs. Quite Corporate.

There are a few others, but this is a start.

I have worked with HKTI for the past 6 years and so far I am very happy.

Ask Franco and tell him I recommend them to you.

I have tested Linode Tokyo servers to Shanghai, China. I can build a SSH Tunnel and stream two 1080p YouTube videos at the same time without buffering (some time). Stream one 1080p YouTube video without buffering most of the time.

Thank you so much for all the
