The first of April is time not only for jokes, but also for good news.
From April 1, Infobox will switch to a new system of providing customers with traffic in the areas of server placement, server rental, and vds servers. We refuse to provide conditional-free traffic, subject to the observance of certain ratios - incoming-outgoing and Russian-foreign. Now we provide you with data transmission over a dedicated band at a speed of 10 Mbps.
Nowadays, among Russian providers there is a practice of providing unlimited traffic on virtual hosting and conditionally unlimited (traffic by ratios) when renting and hosting servers. In case of non-compliance with the ratio of customers have to pay the difference. Hosting providers in Russia started switching to this model since 2001, gradually canceling not only the traffic fee, but also the registration / installation fee.

The western model of hosting does not involve taking into account the ratios, usually some amount of traffic is included in the cost of the service, and the excess is paid additionally. Some Russian providers use both models, but the option of providing shareware is the most popular.
At the same time, the provision of shareware carries certain risks. Risks for the provider, because the client is tempted to level traffic by uploading files to the server and creating additional load on the provider's channels in order to keep up with the ratios and avoid additional payments. And the risks to the client, because in the case of, for example, DDoS-attacks there is a risk of getting a bill for tens of thousands of rubles for non-compliance ratios.
Infobox opens a new stage in the development of hosting services and is the first among major Russian hosting providers to offer bandwidth traffic without any correlation. Now you do not need to consider incoming or foreign traffic, you will not receive notifications about traffic exceedances and bills for traffic overspending. No need to artificially align traffic to meet the ratios.
On average, the server of one of our clients consumes traffic at a speed of about 2 Mbit / s, so the speed is 10 Mbit / s. will be enough for 95% of customers.
If your Internet project requires a connection at a higher speed, we have the second good news for you - since April 1, we will reduce the price for expansion of the dedicated band for the server by 2 times.
