Create your own server in the cloud in 30 seconds!

Hello every one!

Today I'll show you how e24cloud.com cana help you to get your own virtual machine running in less that 30 seconds.
I guess your concern can be if it's possible at all.
Well, a few years ago it was possible to get a virtual machine with fixed size of disk, fixed size of RAM memory and fixed processor performance. So configuration of your machine was static from the moment you purchased the server. You wasn't allowed to do any change in size of disk for example. Of course you could upgrade your server but if was often one way action cause you couldn't downgrade.

Today it's much different. You can host your machines, storage, databases in the cloud based hosting provider and you can change anything in the time. This is so flexible. Let's say you are the owner of online shop. You know that each year in the period preceding Christmas sales grow up by 500% and your virtual machine which hosts your store is not sifficient and will be overloaded in Christmas period. Don't be worried cause there are flexible solutions that you can use to react in a dynamic manner.
There are providers that allow you this. Probably you're familiar with at least one of them:
- Amazon
- Azure
- Google Clound
- e24cloud.com


Personaly I'm using Amazon but today I'm going to learn something different.
That's why I'll focus on the latter one. Why? Because e24cloud.com is a provider located in my country - Poland with two data centers in Poznań and Warsaw. You can choose where your servers are located and I'll show you how to do this.

First let's visit the page e24cloud.com to see how the website looks like.

The website has polish and english language versions, so there is no problem if you don't know polish. You can still use the services on e24cloud.com.

Now it's time to create a new account and log in here:

Now let's take a look at the admin page where we can make a choice and configure all needed services:

Now let's create our new virtual machine.

Note that you know the cost in advance. You see the price in Polish currency which is PLN.
The most basic server configuraton costs 1.20PLN net per day, which results in 37,2 PLN per month(which is 9,58$ net per month). I think it sounde sensible.
What is the configuration of this basic server?
- Ubuntu 16 operating system (you have plenty of options)
- 500MB RAM (can be adjisted to your needs)
- 1 processor core (which also can be changed)

Also be aware that we are able to choose the data center location. In the example I selected Poznań(POZ).

When you're fine with the settings just clich "Create a server" and that's it.
In a seconds you should be get an email with confirmation that your server is set up and running.
Do you see how easy it is to create a new server? If you're fast it takes you less that 30 seconds.

Summary:
e24cloud.com is a pretty unique and promising solution among polish providers so I'm going to use in my projects and give it a try.
I'm starting right now. I think it's your turn to do the same.

I describe how to create a web service in ASP.NET COre in my previous post: . Today I'll demonstrate how it works from client perspective, in our case it's Xamarin.Forms application but web application or desktop application can use exactly the same code. This is the great benefit of using C# language - we can use the same code on multiple platforms. OK, I bet you're interested in the code. Let's jump to the code.
