After Double Eleven, I found that VPS hosts are now at bargain prices on Alibaba Cloud and Tencent Cloud. Many people are rushing to buy cheap promotional VPS from Alibaba Cloud and Tencent Cloud. In fact, the Tencent Cloud 10 yuan / A monthly 2GB memory VPS host can always be purchased. As long as you are an old user, you can directly start a group, and then new users can purchase it together for 10 yuan a month. For this Tencent Cloud AMD server 8 yuan/month event, I checked the previous information and found that it seems to have been available for purchase since the first half of 2018. It can be seen that Tencent Cloud has been engaged in AMD server since Promotional. This 8 yuan per month VPS host has a computer room in Guangzhou, a memory of 1GB, and a hard drive of 50GB. It can be purchased for up to one year. A slight disadvantage is that the bandwidth of Tencent Cloud's AMD server is only 1MB, which is more suitable for small blog sites or corporate display pages with low traffic. In addition, for students who are not very well-off, a VPS host of 8 yuan/month is really better than It’s much cheaper than buying a virtual host when I was in college. With a VPS host, you can start building a website. If you feel that 1MB bandwidth is not suitable for you, you can check out my VPS summary page: VPS host ranking list.

This is the CPU, memory and hard disk IO reading and writing of Tencent Cloud AMD server. The IO reading and writing speed here is twice as fast as the Tencent Cloud VPS host performance speed evaluation I used before.

In general, Tencent Cloud AMD servers are very cost-effective. Whether it is disk IO or hard disk capacity, the price is still very worthwhile. Even if the bandwidth is 1MB, it may have an impact on the later development of the website, because the upgrade of this type of product is calculated based on the original price. Many friends are worried about the performance of AMD processing. According to my own experience, Tencent Cloud, Alibaba Cloud, etc. sell VPS hosts as virtual hosts. Personally, I think it is impossible not to oversell. In the end, It depends on how much the host provider limits the resources of each VPS.
