    Looking at two potential VPS-from-cloud providers, http://www.gandi.net and http://fi.upcloud.com . I use the former for domain registry and really like it. Seems like an extremely solid and sympathic company otoh the latter gets cheaper and cheaper in comparison when the requirement for diskspace goes up. The fi.upcloud.com uses fast SAS disks attached to 40Gbit/s infiniband networking ( 4 x the speed of 10Gbit ethernet and lower latency ) .

    The server no. 2 I'm shopping for now will be called backup.consumium.org and besides backing other servers up only serves as status.consumium.org and dumps.consumium.org. Without root password, strictly only very trusted people have sudo access, using ssh keys instead of passwords to access the backuppable servers / services.

    Then server no. 1, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7 etc can be backupped automized to the backup server.
