Rackspace.

Good name. Their sister-company is called “Cleavage” :)

Oh but seriously, good luck! Make sure you get mod_rewrite, and GDlib 2 with JPEG support.

Thanks Joen. I know you went through a server move recently too, so you’ll know how tedious it can be.

Any chance of a future write-up of your experiences with Rackspace? We’re moving all our corporate sites to a new host later in the year, and Rackspace is one of the potentials on my list, so I’d be interested to hear how you’ve found working with them.

Also - did you know they’re giving away free t-shirts to their customers at the moment?

Certainly Matthew. I can tell you this, so far they have been absolutely superb in both support and speed of response. But there’s always a honeymoon period with any new supplier isn’t there?

What has surprised me is how quick Rackspace work. I ordered two servers, both using custom configurations, and both were online ready for me to begin configuring them after just 4 hours.

Yes! :-)
