My server provider is moving my server to a new data center, I am going to keep my data on it.But I am going to be assigned two new IP's.I have a Centos server with WHM and CPanel.
tell me exacly on which file on my server i need to configure my two new IP's, is changing them on WHM enough? Do I have to edit the DNS zone for each domain?.
What is a difference between Network Operation Center and Data Center?
As I understood, DC is a physical location of computers while NOC is somewhat abstract term. It means servers, routers, wires, switches and all other equipment.
What is the best data center to rent a server from? I don't need a managed server I can admin and secure it remotely.
View 7 Replies View RelatedDoes anyone know the secret behind the server configuration of the big boys in hosting who offer as much as 1.5TB webspace and $15TB bandwidth or even unlimited for less than $10/month? I want to offer such a high webspace at less than $10/month too.
I want to know the exact server configuration in terms of hard drives/accessories that can make this possible and very reliable data centers where I can co-locate the servers with unmetered bandwidth too.
The estimated cost of the hard drives/accessories and any other associated costs should be stated clearly.Linux/Unix platforms preferred.The DC should be ready to do the configuration and the cost would not leave a serious dent on my financial resources.
I and my colleagues often times run into misunderstandings about terminology. I'd love your input on the following - please also make suggestions of terms we should be including in our list - we will be posting these to our website.
CRITICAL POWER LOAD ("CRITICAL LOAD"): The usable electrical capacity at the data center floor and server cord. Does not include any ancilary load for cooling, lighting, common areas or other equipment. VERY IMPORTANT DEFINITION. Also called IT load, data load, server load, etc..
CRITICAL COOLING LOAD: The usable cooling capacity at the data center floor. Does not include any ancilary load for lighting, common areas or other equipment.
PARASITIC LOAD: The power and cooling load for all ancilary equipment and common area operation.
RETAIL COLOCATION: Multi-tenant, turnkey data centers that offer services down to the rack or partial rack / cabinet.
WHOLESALE COLOCATION: Multi-tenant, turnkey data centers that offer services down to the PDU. Typically require commits greater than 300 KW (2000 SF approx).
SHELL DATA CENTER: A building that has been pre-qualified for power and telecom access, with or without any other improvements (i.e. four concrete walls), and amenable to data center development and use. My become a single-tenant property or colocation.
COMMISSIONABLE (WHOLESALE / RETAIL) DATA CENTER / COLOCATION: An unoccupied, fully built data center previously in operational condition but that can be brought to fully operational status with minimal improvements and via the commissioning process.
EXCHANGE COLOCATION: Multi-tenant, turnkey data centers where ISPs interconnect and that offer services down to the rack or partial rack / cabinet.
CARRIER NEUTRAL COLOCATION: Multi-tenant, turnkey data centers that are unaffiliated with a network service provider.
NETWORK SERVICE PROVIDER (NSP) COLOCATION: Multi-tenant, turnkey data centers that are affiliated with a network service provider.

View 6 Replies View RelatedI 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?
Would a consumer Gigabit switch work in the DC for sharing a connection with like 2-3 servers?
Obviously, I am not looking for features like bandwidth control and other pluses from enterprise switches....
Anyone know of any re-sellers out of the SBC/ATT data center in Irvine?

View 14 Replies View RelatedDuring my minutes of boredom the other day, I spoke to a person from Open Pipe solutions LTD regarding a Data Center network. I wasn't interested I just wanted to know really. I was quoted the following:
20 Static IPs (Upgradeable)
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!
which datacenter is the cheapest on US for dedicated server. Could you write 2 or 3 datacenter fot choose. we don't need managed service.

View 14 Replies View RelatedWe're expanding our project and looking to organize one more data center in US. We would like to get 3Racks with 40A of power each,
500Mbps 95% traffic.
The best would be Carrier Neutral facility with good traffic offerings selection.
We could benefit of 2 types of traffic - inexpensive traffic for serving large files and low latency traffic for web/ajax applications.
There is a data center in an office building I manage. I need to lease rack space and the data center manager wants the job. They have made the following proposal:
1 to 4 racks priced at $350 each
5 to 9 racks priced at $300 each
10 to 19 racks priced at $250 each
20 and above priced at $200 each
the management fee is included in above pricing
I do not know the industry standard for leasing commissions but more or less 50% seems high. What do you think? Whatis a fair deal for all?
SOFT 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.

I was wondering what people in Australia use with regards to data centers. Do you go local in Australia or are overseas data centers just as good, with regards to speed?
If local what do you guys use?
If overseas, where do you get the fastest bandwidth to Australia, etc.
we 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.
Does anyone own/operate or work at a datacenter in Southern California (Riverside County). I am looking for a place to possibly colo at and even work at, I just havent found any Southern California Data Centers besides La and San Diego, and I do not really want to drive to either. Also if anyone has wanted to start one in that area but hasnt found a partner, let me know, I may be interested in getting in on a deal with someone.
View 7 Replies View RelatedI found this interesting article: [url]
It shows Chicago as the greenest city for a data center, which absolutely surprised me even considering I'm in Chicago. Overall, I thought the article was interesting and gave a different view on things. I figured at least someone else here would be interested in the article.
From 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.
How much would it cost roughly to build a data center? I am curious because in the future I may build one
View 14 Replies View RelatedIs their any threat or possible problems in using a common private subnet in the data center which will be used for internal communications (Backup Network, etc.) connected to a private internal network.
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?
