Akamai Cloud Computing

Formerly Linode

We use Linode for all our hosting needs, from custom services to web servers and databases.

Our main use of Linode is proof of concept testing. Because Linode bills only for the exact amount of use time of a virtual machine, plus makes it very user friendly and fast to configure, and has a lot of interesting "Marketplace" applications, it can be very easy and cheap to setup an entire test environment, try it out for a few days and delete it, only being billed for used hours.

We operate as a team of freelance professionals. Our specialisation is in Open Source and Linux technologies. Our range of projects can vary, from the mundane to the esoteric. These edge case projects leverage heavily on open source. Often they require a lot of flexibility from the underlying infrastructure platform. The nature of its offering allows us to adapt and evolve these solutions cost effectively. Excellent support, with an organisation that understands the nuances of Linux based solutions. This means we have to jump through fewer hoops. Linode is one of the primary hosting platforms for our online presence and infrastructure.

We use Linode for hosting a number of sites ranging in scale. The flexibility of the servers with known fixed pricing is really useful and allows us to plan well in advance. Additionally the speed with which we can spin up new servers allows us to scale for short-term spikes in traffic in a managed way.

I'm using Linode's VPS services to host all my company and project websites. I chose Linode because they offer VPS servers on different locations worldwide. I had zero experience with VPS and their documentation made it relatively easy to host all my websites. I don't have to depend on shard hosting anymore.

We started using Linode hosting services in 2017. Moving from DigitalOcean, our motivation at the beginning was just pricing. But after four years I can say reliability and professional service is key for remaining. We still have some servers running on a local data center, but have plans to move all of them to Linode in next months/years. We use Linode's VPS for custom web services for all customers, which are small companies. For $5 to $20 at month, we can host a web application with some hundreds of users.

With the exception of email, we use Linode as the foundation of our entire web-stack. Linode has been rock solid and their support on the rare occasion we have run into difficulty has been second to none. The transition to Linode being acquired by Akamai has thus far been without any issue.

We have been using Linode to power websites, web, and mobile applications for our customers for around eight years. We have been managing Linode accounts for few customers and would strongly recommend any developer to start with it. The dedicated CPU plans are quite powerful and affordable, unlike market leaders stealing our CPU power. The addition of new services like Object and Block Storage really gives flexibility to developers. The upcoming Cloud Firewall and Bare Metal option would help us reach more Enterprise customers. The Marketplace library and Stack script options make Linode unique and customizable to spin an instance. Availability of Mumbai region in India has further added scope to our services. Hope we get more regions in India soon.

We are a web design and development company. We use Linode to deploy and host customer websites in the cloud. We use their VPS and storage solutions to provide our clients with a solid and reliable foundation. Linode is not the fastest or slowest solution out there but they are reliable and predictable, which is what you want from an upstream provider. Been a loyal customer since 2009.

I use Lindode to service our DNS demands, Web Presence and Mail services. Being a small company we do not need the complexities or cost of Google or Office365. With the services we have from Linode, they are cost effective and put us in control of our own data, and allow us to scale up or down as our demands require. It is not a one-stop shop - it gives our IT independence and freedom back.

We are a small design agency and host a number of mostly WordPress websites on mostly LEMP stacks. Some clients have dedicated VPS servers but most are sharing a VPS with others.

We are using Linode to host three of our services we are offering. - Wordpress one-click installation - Accounting + POS Java application backend - Managed DB for the POS The accounting application is mostly used internally. At the moment we just have one person managing the Linode accounts, while several people have access to the servers by SSH.

Linode is used to host a series of servers and databases for our SaaS products and customers' websites or e-commerces.

They are, naturally, of different sizes, depending on the need of each service or customer. However, independently of the node size, they are all very powerful and generous in the number of resources.

Linode hosts the server infrastructure for our entire organization. We have a dozen server instances for a variety of purposes, from dedicated APIs to databases to various front-end web presences. Linode also hosts the majority of our DNS. Their flexibility with instances and cost ensure that we can spin up exactly the correct sized cloud instance for a small project, or throw a lot of resources for our high-availability needs.

We selected Linode as our VPS provider because they were one of the first in the business to offer what we needed for a good price. We use their VPSs to host websites for our customers. They offer a good range of VPS so we can choose the right size for the customer.

We rely on Linode to fulfill our cloud computing requirements, leveraging Virtual Private Servers (VPS) across our suite of products and services deployed on production sites. Linode serves as the backbone for our daily development operations, encompassing testing processes and hosting needs. Additionally, we utilize Linode for web and email hosting, as well as managing Domain Name Servers (DNS) and orchestrating Continuous Integration and Continuous Deployment (CI/CD) pipelines. Essentially, Linode is integral to our entire operational ecosystem, supporting various facets of our business infrastructure and workflow.

We use Linode for all of our production Web and API hosting, powering not only our websites and apps, but our customers websites and apps. Linode enables us to host all of our public facing systems on secure and scalable Linux based system, with minimal downtime and well documented (and so easily preparable for) network outage windows.

LAMP stack hosting of websites.

We were a small hosting company, all of our web servers and various other services were run on Linode's platform. Although I have largely exited the Webhosting industry, I still have a few Linodes hosting our internal applications, customer-facing website, and a few remaining customer sites. To this day, I run some public mirrors for a few open-source projects.

I've used Linode for virtual private servers for over a decade. They have been consistent, reliable, affordable, and more effective than I could hope. Currently, my Linode VPSs serve as both the frontend webservers and backend database servers for every website I host. Recently I also deployed Linode object storage to manage backups and large object delivery, and it was a very low-effort move from my previous AWS S3 implementation.

We are currently using Linode shared instances for hosting our entire project, as well as Linode's block storage for managing storage capacity. We have begun migration away from some services we were relying on AWS for, and moving them onto Linode's platform including some Amazon S3 storage and moving them to block.

Linode powers the servers that run our website and blog.

atanda web presence services is a boutique Internet service provider. We use Linode virtual machines in several regions in the provision of web and email hosting services to American and European small businesses and creative individuals. Linode provides stable and reliable high-performance platforms for our LAMP environments to run on. In addition, their technical customer service, when required, is friendly, professional, and dedicated to getting problems solved quickly and completely.

We use Linode to host client software products, and internally to automate tasks and make use of centralized storage. We have a number of Linodes set up, covering various sizes, Linux configurations and geographic location. They are used on a daily basis, and all our customer services rely on these systems.

We are a software company who uses Linode to host our own servers as well as selling the option to our customers to host our product with Linode.
