Linode 13th Anniversary Free Memory Upgrade Plan

According to Linode’s 13th anniversary blog post, the current double memory upgrade is only for KVM packages, and the old XEN architecture will be upgraded to KVM first. At the same time, since Japanese nodes have no resources, the upgrade does not include Japanese nodes, but Linode is already updating it. The Japanese node facilities are expected to be available in large quantities before the end of this year.

First copy the original blog post:

It was 13 years ago today that Linode opened its doors and earned its first customers. Now, 13 years later, it's amazing how much we've grown. According to a study by CloudHarmony, Linode is the 4th largest cloud provider to the top 10,000 Alexa websites, following only Amazon, Rackspace, and IBM. Not bad. We have helped over half a million customers, launched nearly 12 million Linode servers, and now have more than 100 employees, all while remaining independent and privately owned.

The first paragraph lists Linode's achievements and current status, including that they surpassed 100 employees.

None of this would have been possible without the dedication and engagement of our employees, who care a great deal about you, our customer, and about the work we do. We've attracted some of the most passionate, brilliant, and handsome people I 've ever met (BTW, we're hiring). So, a big thanks to everyone here at Linode.

Some words of emotion and gratitude, the next paragraph gets to the point: free memory upgrade

We also want to thank you for your business and support all these years. As a token of our gratitude, we’re announcing free RAM upgrades for both new and existing customers. Here’s the breakdown:

The free upgrade is available immediately. At the top of your Linode's dashboard you will see the upgrade banner. It should be just the press of a button and a reboot for many of you, however sometimes a migration will be required – which typically just takes a few minutes.

Let me tell you that there is a magic button at the top of the management panel. Click it to upgrade.

This upgrade is available only for KVM Linodes. Legacy Xen Linodes will have to first upgrade to KVM before being able to take advantage of the RAM upgrade. You can upgrade your Xen Linodes to KVM using the “Upgrade to KVM” link on the lower- right side of your Linode's dashboard.

XEN needs to be upgraded to KVM before you can click this magical button

Unfortunately, since Tokyo is sold out, the upgrade is not available there. We hope to have our second Tokyo facility online before the end of the year.

Sadly, Tokyo doesn't have enough resources, so we won't let you click this magical button. Just kidding, we will try our best to let you order it before the end of the year.

In addition to the new facility, our teams are working hard on the new API (inpublic alpha), the new open source Linode Manager, and the significant improvements to our networking infrastructure including transit, peering, and bandwidth upgrades. We're also very excited about our future office in Philadelphia – a beautiful neoclassical 110-year-old former bank building right at the heart of N3RD Street. Renovations are underway and we hope to be working out of there in the spring.

This paragraph is nonsense.

We continue to build upon the foundations of a company that is big enough to handle its customers’ needs but small enough to care. We hope we’re accomplishing that. You have our eternal gratitude for your business. Stay tuned for more!

This paragraph is also nonsense.

Linode is a very good company. It currently provides VPS hosts based on KVM architecture. The options include 8 data center rooms in Japan, Singapore, Fremont, and Dallas in the United States. The self-developed product management panel is very powerful, and the customer service response is fast. The host is relatively stable and supports hourly billing, etc. However, they do not support PayPal payment, only credit cards, which also blocks many struggling users. The upgraded Linode package is more cost-effective, starting at as low as $10/month with 2GB of memory.
