I recently discovered Terabix, a Malaysian-based cloud VM provider, and decided to give their CVM-4GB plan a spin. If you're looking for an affordable virtual server, this might just be the one for you.
Plan Highlights
For just $5.95/month (using coupon LEBEXCLUSIVE), the CVM-4GB plan includes:
4GB DDR5 RAM
2 vCPUs
30GB NVMe Gen4 (RAID-10)
1TB bandwidth @ 1Gbps uplink
1x IPv4 + /64 IPv6
VirtFusion KVM Panel
Some of the Available Plans Offered
Performance Test: YABS Benchmark
To evaluate the performance, I ran a Yet-Another-Bench-Script (YABS) test on the CVM-4GB plan:-
