Moving external DNS server to VPS
Moving external DNS server to VPS
I plan to move an external DNS server to a hosted VPS in the near future. I would appreciate advice on VPS specs for this purpose, or an other helpful feedback from others who have done this before. I've used a lot of low end boxes to host web services, and would like to do that with this project as well but don't want to under spec it. It will be used regularly by around 300 users.

I wouldn’t bother with the VPS if you could use a managed service like Route 53 in AWS.
Thanks for the suggestion. Honestly one thing I don't like about AWS and a lot of the major cloud vendors these days is the pricing structure isn't very easy for me to wrap my head around and I'm never confident what I will be charged. I do have some services on AWS and so far I haven't had any surprises but I do always have that concern. I will give Route 53 another look though.
Running it in a dedicated VM is usually the more expensive option, particularly with something simple like DNS.
Are you using Route 53 for DNS? If so, would you mind sharing your monthly cost for that? Thanks again.
