How Much Rackspace Cost?

Frequently readers ask us how much Rackspace cost? Rackspace does not cost much with the quality of products they offer. You can save good money. We have no affiliate links to any service provider in this website. For free or lesser cost PaaS – either Heroku or Openshift. OpenShift is easy to use. Rackspace is not for junk websites, it is a premium service. Rackspace manually verifies the account then activates, at least this was the rule in 2010-11.

 

How Much Rackspace Cost Versus Other Leaders on Cloud Computing?

 

Fujitsu has excellent services. But Fujitsu, Dell, IBM usually are not typical hosting providers, although lately IBM is trying their fortune via PaaS. Rackspace has lot of similarities with Apple’s main products like MacBook Pro and Mac Pro. You can read our previous important article – Gartner Magic Quadrant 2014 and IaaS Solutions. Rackspace recently has changed there service level agreement (SLA) and except buying from an client or having an old account, there is no way to use Rackspace’s raw infrastructure. From Gartner Magic Quadrant 2014, its quite clear – Rackspace can not be compared with the others in mainstream.

How Much Rackspace Cost?

 

You should understand the pricing model in cloud. It is 100% pay as you go model plus a fixed fee depending upon the need / type of usage. If you are not running anything which has some cost, maintaining an account for only Cloud Files will not cost anything. The practically least costly hosting is Rackspace Cloud Sites, which is aPaaS, it includes everything in this world you need within $150 / month charge. It remained 150 since 2011. OpenShift also cost 150, so possibly Cloud sites with IP address can not be accused much. It is fully managed and good for small business, personal websites etc. If there is downtime over SLA, Rackspace deducts money. With Cloud Files, usually it remains within 151 USD per month. The calculation of usage is on computing cycle.

Right now, for the Public Cloud /IaaS/Cloud Server part, practically your bill be minimum 150 USD. There are levels of managed (there is no unmanaged or semi-managed) accounts, Managed Operations (SysOps) is the standard and costs minimum $500 per month. Managed Operations (DevOps Automation) costs over $5000 per month. You can use Bare Metal instead of Cloud Server.

Dedicated, Colocation can not be directly said, because they are tailored service. Dedicated starts from $625.00/mo for the infrastructure with 12GB DDR3 RAM, all has Cisco firewall. Within $2000 per mo, you will get great setup with all the fees. We use dedicated for Hybrid Cloud. Except websites like Github, financial websites, for public usage, dedicated server is not required.
