I am working on a series of online games, and plan to also sell managed game server hosting for the new platform that my studio is adopting. I am having a bit of a hard time finding the hosting I am looking for.
Based on our projections the server for our own in house projects we need around 2TB/month, but also want to capitalize on the investment into the server software that we have written and sell monthly managed servers for other small game developers who do not have time to write all the interlink software themselves, so projecting that a small time dev who is moderately successful should be using up at least 20-100GB/month. Storage is much less of a concern here as total RAM and bandwidth is the primary concern. Anyway the server absolutely needs to be able to run SQL, PHP, and custom written Java software to even be considered.
We are looking for something with salable plans as obviously we are not at this kind of network demand right now, but we want the room to grow without necessarily having to completely migrate to a different service.
