I've been shopping around to put up a small virtual server in the cloud with its own real IP address to do some things. I'd like the data center to be located as close to downtown as possible. I only need 512M RAM, 10G storage, and less than 100G/month bandwidth. This one place called ubiquityservers.com had this in their AUP. ---------- 17. Inappropriate Use of Software: Use of software or any device that would facilitate a continued connection, i.e. pinging, while using Ubiquity Server Solutions services could result in suspension service. ---------- My server might be involved in a lot of "continued connections" albeit not pings. I need my server in the cloud to do what I need it to do. I assume I'm able to ssh into my server. Ssh can be a continued connection. Does anyone have a recommendation? Also, it was unclear to me whether or not I could supply my own vm image or if I have to install everything manually on one of their pure images.
