    need Communication Server Hosting

    Hi,

    I need a Flash Communication Server Hosting for testing.
    I need to test flash streaming up to Streaming Bandwidth 512 kbps

    Who has the best hosting?

    I'am located in Denmark, so the bandwidth need to be good.

    I have found this:
    http://www.influxis.com/products.htm
    Monthly $34.95

    http://www.metasphere.net/hosting/Fl...g_Package.html
    Monthly $35 - cant see bandwidth

    http://www.mediatemple.net/services/...an-pricing.php
    Monthly $125.00 - to much $

    Is mediatemple the only serius hoster?

    I have good streaming hosting in Denmark (win mediaplayer, realplayer and quicktime)
    Can I use the quicktime streaming server to host streaming flv?

    MediaTemple's the only place I've seen recommended. They are definitely very serious and probably worth the cost.

    as far as i know, you have to have the flashcom server to stream a FLV file.

    I have had Influxis for my FlashCom hosting for almost 2 months now and I definitely have no complaints. My connection is fast and their customer support is excelent. And what is most cool is I did not have to switch my web hosting. They have my recommendation.

    I also have an account with Influxis I would highly reccommend them for the same reasons mammajamma mentioned. The are the cheapeast I think. I pay $45 per quarter for a 10 user account which I think is a bargin.

    I'm running a video chat at http://www.editioninteractive.co.uk/whoisonline.html if you want to see for yourself.

    The fact that you don't have to change your domain/host is also a realy bonus.

    I am using plan 1 at http://www.uvault.com. $5.00 per month. It can't get cheaper then this, and they seem to be able to measure bandwidth of vhosts so I get charged only for what I use. Didn't see this with other FCS hosting providers.

    we did offer vhost stats months ago, I believe before anyone else did.

    As for $5 a month that's fair enough, however those sort of prices are unrealistic for us with the kind of support we offer. None of our customers has yet canceled their account which I think speaks for itself but if price is the deciding factor then your decision will obviously be an easy one.

    American hosts tend to be cheaper too because bandwidth is cheaper in the US. We are based in Europe, it depends what your needs are. The small Developer accounts are quite popular though even over here.
