X4B.ORG - Reverse Proxy Hosting - Hide your Server IP (Russia, Sweden, USA, Romania)

Alright just 2 questions before I buy.

Will this slower the speeds accessing it my site or would it be the same?

What is your server is down, will my site still be accessible?

Very nice service. But what would happen if that IP from you is down (don't know if it'll happen), like we've run out of funds etc. Will our site goes down totally? or will it automatically changed back to our default IP?

EDIT: @Gh0st, realise you have the same question as mine

Yes, there will be a 10ms delay (Tested from almost all Europe)
I don't think SI will let it go down No idea about it, lets wait for his reply.
But really I'm enjoying the service

this is basicly like VPN right.

Do we get a dedicated IP ?
is the content cached and does it act as an accelerator ?? if so do we get the option to clear the cache ?

Message me when you're done with testing and ready to actually sell it.
Would be nice addition to some of my sites.

Sorry for the delay guys.

@so19: Testing has been going on on the service for over a month, its only the control panel which is in beta.

@desiboy: Currently caching is disabled, we are working on implementing a system where users can use regular expressions to designate content as cacheable. That feature howeaver is still in design and as such isnt production ready.

@ExclusiveWarez: In a sense its like a VPN on your server

@ProtoWorker: Yes correct, 9-10ms delay to anywhere in centeral->east europe, 11-12ms to america. Server is also on a gbit port so no troubles with port usage.

@kohkindachi: If you run out of funds your IP is placed back into the pool. That is why there is a warning to ensure there is always money in your account.
Server Speed is gbit, 10ms delay on connections average.
Uptime: around 99.95%, ive only seen one instance of datacenter related downtime in the past month (1/100 packet loss occured for 20 minutes about a week ago)
If the reverse proxy server does go down then yes the server goes down. In the future we may implement multiple homing and implement a backup in another location howeaver we dont have this at this stage.

@Gh0st: Same as above, and its barely noticeable, infact ive been running it on my sites for a while and its actually improved performance since its offloaded gzip and keepalive capabilities to the front end server.



Anyone still not sold can simply trial it by depositing $1-$2 into their account, thats good for almost 2 weeks during which you can test it and post your own unbiased report here.

In fact if someone knowledgeable and well respected (more than me, I mean mod or admin) wants to try it and report ill credit their account with $5 to try.

[Gh0st]

Alright, I would pay for this service soon.

And for my second question, If your server goes down will my server still be accessible?

[SplitIce]

not for the time it is down (if prolonged you can always set your DNS A records back the way it was). so far we have had less than 1 minute of downtimes this month, its a simple service, not much to go wrong.

one more question this only works with VPS?
