=== Linode ===
Linode offers fairly good specs (1 GB memoryRAM, 8 cores1 CPU, 24 20 GB storage, 2 1 TB transfer) for $20 5 a month, but do not have any cheaper plans. They have a robust management interface with load and bandwidth statistics, DNS management, and allow uploading of custom ISOs.
Linode has had multiple security-related incidents in the past, one of which was due to a ColdFusion zero-day and resulted in passwords and the last 4 digits of credit card numbers being leaked. Another resulted in $71,000 in BTC being stolen.
=== Prgmr ===
[https://prgmr.com/xen/ Prgmr ] is a discount Xen host used by several VTLUUG members. Prgmr was originally viewed as very inexpensive, however they have not made significant upgrades to their plans in recent years. Hosts like DigitalOcean and Linode that have have made Prgmr a poor choice for all but their cheapest plans. Since they are Xen-based, it is possible to use whatever ISO you would like, as well. Recovery options are a debianLive ISO or a netbsd netboot. Management is only over SSH or a serial console. === Vultr ===[https://www.vultr.com/ vultr] has pricing comparable to other options, but actually allows you to use your own ISO images, whileDigital Ocean (and others) only allows you to use their existing kvm images.
