Aulerion，一家成立于2018年年初的美国主机商，短期之内连续上线了15个数据中心，同时按照小时收费模式，估计还是有不少国人入住吧。从官方了解到主要原因在于资金不足，前后共花费了3W美元吧，上线了大概15个数据中心，不足以支撑运营，已经倒闭！从中发现商家胃口还是比较大的，在资金不足的情况下还大量上线数据节点，在没有充足的用户情况下，这种风险还是比较高的哦；如果商家前期一步一步来进行操作，估计运营下去的希望还是比较大的。比如在17年成立的美国主机商cloudcone一直以来就提供洛杉矶MC一个数据节点，从成本上来说比较容易把控。

Dear customers and visitors.

Aulerion is currently facing difficulties in terms of financials, forcing a temporal closure of the service.
The reason behind this is that we tried remaining competitive in pricing, which worked for a long time as we
were able to cover all expenses with revenue. Aulerion to date has not generated a single cent profit for
it’s owners. So far, the project has costed various persons which invested in the project over $30000:

Florian B. $20000
Robert R. $5000
Wim B. $5000

As a result of recent massive DDoS attacks targeting smaller and larger parts of our infrastructure, which
caused tremendous bandwidth bills especially in our Asian regions, we are no longer able to cover all our
costs and ran out of our last reserves in the company under which Aulerion operated.

To sumarize, the whole project has costed the owners over $30000 in costs to run, whilst not turning a
single cent profit, aside of dozen hours spent on maintaing the project. We are at this time unable to
continue operating Aulerion. The project has turned loss in every month of operation, up to the point
where continuing both makes no more sense and is simply not possible.

Servers are still online at the moment, please make sure to backup anything of relevance as soon as possible.
We are actively talking to suppliers to postpone termination of our agreements to allow our customers to backup,
but we do not anticipate a lot more room.

Finally, we wish to apologize for the huge inconvenience caused and we hope to be able to provide services to you
again in a smaller fashion in the near future, where you can potentially spend your potentially lost credit.
