TIPS Hosting options

[atsak]

Historically I've built Incredible PBX (2025) on Digital ocean droplets. I noticed in some situations there's a race condition and asterisk stops answering calls when the node gets a little busy that it's hosted on and it can't get enough CPU resources. I've moved this to dedicated CPU instances which seems to have fixed it, but it's expensive around $100 a month or something. It's mostly a problem in Toronto and NYC it seems.

In practice, is anyone out there running a slightly busier PBX (ie maybe a hundred or more calls a day) that they're sure isn't refusing calls (carriers tell me there's just no answer to the invite, but it's not a firewall issue, I can see the traffic pass to asterisk but it doesn't answer) and uses a cloud provider? Which ones?

Thanks.

Atlanta is an awesome site that is right beside the internet backbone. It also happened to be a block from my old office. Let me know if you have any issues. They are great guys to work with. They even host a couple of our older ISOs.
