Console
Currently quite a good feature of VPS.net is having the ability to access your servers via a console interface in case your server can’t be accessed by SSH or you have other issues. It works fairly well and has helped me recover from a few issues such as an over zealous sshd.conf which stopped and user being able to login over SSH. Although in its current state there has been some issues where you can’t execute key combination’s such as CTRL + C.
A new version of the console is going to be a KVM solution and apparently is a lot better. This would be really good as although the current version is substantially better than the ones I have used with other hosting companies it is limited in a few ways, hopefully the new version will address these issues.
DNS 2.0
A new version of the DNS system is coming soon which will add new functionality including the ability to configure TTLs and new failover functionality. Some of the improvements came alive on Friday the 18th but other changes are still to follow. The most notable new change that came alive on Friday was features the ability to set SOA/NS which allows you to white label the VPS.net nameservers.
Redundant SANs
This is my favourite one of the new things coming to VPS.net in the next few months. 100% redundant SANs, in the past most down time has been due to SAN issues such as a bad RAID card. But no more will this be the issue any problems you simply get migrated to another SAN which is just awesome.
This is also now in place to an extent but not for everyone unfortunately. If you want to take advantage of the new redundant SANs you need to have your VPS migrated to SANs that support the new failover implementation.
A bit annoying for old customers but perfectly fine for new customers as I believe they will be on new SANs anyways.
Windows
Windows is coming to the cloud. Not something that excites me personally but should be good as might work out as an effective solution for people who want to host gaming servers ( After all no one truly wants to run Windows for anything else.
