I have a tower case just under 440mm in height and was wondering where in the UK this could be colo'd?
It's basically a standard tower case you get with PCs bought from places like PC World these days. I just don't want it going to waste under my desk, so was hoping it could be colo'd somewhere.
It's a P4 3.0GHz, 1gB RAM and 200gB HDD PC, so could make good use of it really.
Now I have to say from the kick off that IRC must be allowed by the colo provider.
instead of buying a rackmount that holds 16 hard drives that is about 1000$ for the case + power supply.
why not just buy a tower that might cost you $400 + PSU and use that?
my question is wouldnt it be cheaper for me to buy a tower instead of rackmounts if my majority is in space , for example my tower that costed me about $99 holds 12 hard drive bays (this is in my desktop house) , while my 3u rackmount holds 16 hard drives but it was $1000 + PSU included.
co-location of a mini tower PC I have that hosts a couple of websites. I live in Redmond, WA so anywhere near there or down in Seattle will be fine. Bandwidth wise I only need about 500GB per month. anything fancy just a secure facility with power and network connection.
since most dedicated server are just desktop pc. i was wondering what would be a great motherboard and tower for home made server for my own use or possible for colo? perfer enought RAM slot for up to 8gig and onboard SATA RAID controller
Please give me the difference. Colo in carrier hotel, we can choose our preferred network provider, but should we do that if we cannot have our own tech in datacenter? How about the supporting service from carrier hotel? Just general question, cause I dont address exactly which facility.
And the second would be more expensive? Saying the same number of rack, amount of bandwidth... Who is providing IP addresses then?
I will have to deploy a site into VPS (or dedicated or amazon EC2, I don't really know yet, but I thik it could be VPS).
First of all I don't know how strong server do I need. It's rails application with 800k (up to 1million) pageviews per month. Could you tell me how much traffic do you have on your VPSes? It's rails app, so I think I will need RAM at first place.
I'm in searching of an offer similar to Eurovps, someone can suggest me something of same quality? I want change from eurovps because we receive many down in this period and them dont want change my vps from managed to unmanaged, the only option to do this is to change vps when is very simple to change only the price into their system. I want use a new vps that reduce me the cost.
I'm looking for Managed VPS in Europe (for example UK, can be DE but with english website and support) or ultimately in USA (DC in east coast) with DirectAdmin panel.
I need about 10-20 GB hdd, 60-80GB transfer/month. The company should be already several years on the market...
recommendations for colocation in Europe, preferably NL or DE based?
Basic requirement:
1-5U initially, option to expand into half and full rack over time.
Reasonably priced bandwidth.
Decent remote hands when needed.
A sensible AUP would also be a requirement. I prefer a host to give you an opportunity to address any issues (such as a compromised system, copyright protected content, or similar) *before* they actually pull the plug. From what I have seen, some hosts will disable your switch port(s) almost the moment they receive a complaint - which is not acceptable.
A friend has asked me to recommend a company for a Managed VPS solution, one that must be in hosted in Europe (I suggested that he might want to look to the USA but he doesn't want to). As I really don't know too much about European VPS solutions as I mainly deal with US datacenters and companies I wanted to ask for a recommendation.
He requires a managed linux VPS solution, with a control panel that can manage files, email, databases etc, so whether its directadmin, cPanel, Plesk or whatever, it doesn't really matter.
He is looking for the following specs: 20-30GB HDD 128 or more RAM Bandwidth doesn't particularly matter as long as its not too low.
The budget is £20 or under (around $40) per month, so he's obviously looking at quite a low-end solution.
I'm currently using 1&1 Germany. Great service, but only in German and Google translator is getting to some funny translations. I've looked at 1&1 UK, but their prices are higher for slower servers with less RAM.
I don't want a server in the US.
I'd like Window 2003, or preferably 2008 with Hyper-V installed.
Im gonna run Zimbra webmail on a server, i dont really care where i host it (and i dont think a VPS will do for it), as long as its not in USA (slow for me as i live in Sweden).
Where should i host it?
Checked Leaseweb and they want 29 euro/month for a dedicated server with 512mb ram, CPU dosnt really matter as long as its atleast the same as leaseweb (sempron 3100+).
Is there any as cheap, or cheaper than that? I found many in .uk and .nl, xeneurope (only VPS?), etc..
I am wondering which is the best data Center to get allow ping from both sites, europe and the USA. For now I am searching for an Data Center at the US East Cost but I am not sure which is the best, therefore I would like to here your opinion on this.
I did do a search of the forum and it showed a few results, mostly non UK and some which were no longer online.
Now I'll make my own topic doh.
What I am looking for is a host which allows UDP + TCP sockets(fsockopen) so I can query gameservers from my hosting + send other commands to other programs.
Must be located in the UK and be fast
Offering a reseller option is a plus, but not required.
