Hi Guys,

A friend and I are interested in proposing a new TLD and would like to 
get some recommendations on hardware and software to run the servers.

Would a couple of decently powered VPS, say the $15 one from vultr.com, 
be enough to run the server, or should it be on a dedicated server from 
the off, if so what kind of spec should I aim for?

I currently run my own nameservers for my own sites using PowerDNS with 
a MySQL backend, could the same setup be used, or do I need to run BIND 
to be able to mirror the root data of the other NIC's?

If there are any other recommendations that could be made to a 
prospective new admin then I would be more than happy to hear it.

Many Thanks
Paul
