What Kind Of Prices Are You Looking At For Private Data Center Space
Jun 30, 2008I'm wondering what kind of prices you would be looking at for some private data center space, maybe in the InfoMart or one of Internaps data centers - somewhere in Texas though, preferably Dallas. Is there any kind of rough monthly price I should expect? Maybe a standard per sq ft charge?
Also, if you rent a private "suite" does that include office space, or would that still be needed separately? How much would it be to get a small (100 to 500 sq ft) office in the infomart?
Cabinet Suite (Internap only it seems), and private suites would be considered. Possibly a cage or private rack, but not preferred.

Oct 31, 2009I am planing on building a small data center either in Waterloo, Ontario or in the surrounding area of Toronto, Ontario.
My questions:
1.) Is Waterloo a good area to build a data center? I know its a technology area but I havent seen much data centers from the area. And are there any bandwidth providers in the area?
2.) Anyone know a good place in the surrounding area of Toronto ontario where fiber lines will be easy to bring in? Mostly looking for something on the edge of the city, planing of purchasing my own land and a place where it will be easy to expand. Right now looking Bolton area or Brampton
3.) What bandwidth providers can be found in these areas? Need someone who can offer bandwidth for cheap like the do in the states so I can offer my customers cheap bandwidth also.
4.) If I open a data center in Waterloo ontario do you guys think there will be a good demand for colocation there?

15TB Premium Bandwidth
Up to 100mbps Speeds
Custom network name
£32,000 setup fee ($64,000)
£2,000 per month ($4,000)
Then you have buildings, servers, rack products & other necessities on top. Very expensive!

Apr 20, 2008SOFT LAYERS data center did not fulfill its legal obligations with regards to the protection against hackers. I complained to SOFT LAYERS against the server hosting the Hackers sites two times and although they shut them down they keep coming back. They don't reply to my messages. These hackers are causing a lot of damage, what can I do to shut them down permanently. Please advice, SOFT LAYERS only talk to these guys to ask them to remove the hacking contents but they never do and SL don't bother to check on the.

Setting Up Our Own Data Center [merged]
Mar 29, 2007we have come to a point where we would like to operate our own data center and move on from doing collocation.
Could anyone that have any experience in setting up their own data center help me out in terms of what kind of equipment needed?
From my qucik research, I would be needing the following:
1. Air Conditioning System - I am thinking of using Liebert System 3
2. UPS System, still not sure what type that suits our needs
3. Diesel Generators, still not sue what type that suits our needs
The server room would be roughly 1,200 square feet. How many Liebert System 3 would I need, how many tons, chilled water or compressors? We have roughly 200 servers at the moment, but would like to accomodate the room to up to 1,000 servers.
What kind of UPS system would you recommend us using?
What kind of Diesel Generators would you recommend us using?
How much is the total cost - roughly to fund this setup?
Are there other main points that I missed besides, AC, UPS, and Diesel Generatros? I mean aside security, network equipments itself, etc. The main basic things.

How Important Is The Data Center To Choosing A Host?
May 6, 2008From testing, I've come to the conclusion that I get extremely fast page downloads from a host in the Equinix Center in VA. I'm in Western NY. I don't know if this data center is better than most or if I just happen to be in an ideal location for their service.
I have a business that gets orders from the whole U.S., but a majority are in the East, especially the NE. Visitors come from everywhere in the U.S., but I'd like to keep the buying customers happiest.
Page download speeds are very important to me and I'd like to keep them as fast as possible for my customers. How important is the data center used by a host going to be to my decision? Also, is there a way to find webhosts from a particular data center? Manually going to webhost sites to find out if they have servers in the Equinix center has been painfully slow.

Example if we use a block such as 10.10.10.x/24 or 192.168.0.x/24 which has a high possibility of being used on many clients LAN's or should we use something totally obscure such as 10.12.15.x/24 or is this not even an issue and simply using anything which is labeled for private use in the RFC's fine?
