West Vs East Coast US Servers For Europeans
Jun 26, 2008if having servers on the East coast vs the West coast would give significantly better speeds for those people accessing sites from Europe?
We have servers in Texas and someone trying to sell us on a CDN (content delivery network) showed us numbers where it was taking 4-5x longer for someone from Europe to download a file. We want our sites to be faster for Europeans so I was wondering if moving to the East coast would help.
West? East? Or Central?
Apr 3, 2007I am really not sure if the location is effecting to speed. I am chooing a provider for colo'ing few servers. I know each region has very good providers (in both services and network, from reviews on WHT), but
- from the west coast to central, the latency difference is around 30 - 40ms
- from the central to the east coast, the latency difference is around 30ms
so, if I go with a provider in west coast, it really saves me 60-70ms latency from my area. However, someone likes gnax in east coast using Route Science, that's advertised to help to get the better routes.
I dont see any in west coast using RS or FCP. So, should I go
- with a "normal" provider (I mean network without RS or FCP equipments) in west coast,
- or with a provider with RS/FCP in any place?
Is the location really effecting to performance?
West Coast Provider
Feb 5, 2009We are looking for recommendations on a Tier 1 hosting facility similiar to Rackspace but on the West Coast.
Our requirement would be ;
approx 20 dedicated servers
Centos OS
OS install to Platform only - no OS support
solid bandwidth and connectivity
100% Network Uptime Guarantee
30 Minute Hardware Replacement SLA
West Coast Windows VPS
Dec 7, 2008I am hunting for a Westcoast, Windows VPS solution. The closer to San Jose, the better.
A 30 day guarantee would be great also!
VPS On The East Coast
Jun 24, 2008I have been looking for a VPS on the east coast (near New York). I am looking to spend around $30, but I need 500GB or more of bandwidth. It would be very preferable for the host to allow IRC connections. I have found a couple hosts that fulfill both of these, but at the moment VPS Empire is looking the best. They allow IRC for an extra $2 a month, which is very reasonable.
I would like to see if you guys have any other recommendations or suggestions for me.
Rsync Provider On The West Coast
Sep 28, 2008We're running a couple of servers and daily we use an r1soft provider to move the data to the mid west. Our servers are at WebNX and we are also looking for a data backup point in the west coast to make sure we can maintain another snapshot of our data.
We are looking for a rsync provider in the west coast - I have checked out rsyncpalace and their machines are at WebNX and we are looking to keep our data in a different data center.
Any leads on a good reliable rsync provider in the west coast?
Limited West Coast Providers

Aug 26, 2008I've been searching over the last few days for web hosts whose servers are located on the east coast of the USA, but haven't been able to find anything suitable.
I've searched on this forum, but either companies don't tend to post where their servers are locatd or my search criteria isn't working.
Either way, would anyone be able to recommend some east coast web hosts or just list some that you know of?
East Coast Colocation
Jul 18, 2008After two and a half years I am upgrading my server that hosts my CS server. Unfortunately, my host will not allow me to upgrade it and keep the special I got from them those years ago.
So I am looking for colocation on the east coast (I have players from Belgium and surrounding areas) with the following:
1U Server Colocation
750-1000GB a month (yes I have used that much in a month though usually only 400GB)
10 or 100 Mbps burstable
2 amps
3-5 IPs
I am hoping I can find this for >$100. Are my requirements too high for this price point? I may consider other areas of the US if my europe players can get good pings. My current host is located at 56 Marietta in Georgia.
US East Coast Colo
Jul 21, 2008I'm trying to draw up a list of potential colo providers for a 20A rack on the east coast in the region of $1,000 - $1,400/mo with 10Mbit
So far I've got
Fortress ITX
Nac.net
Interserver
Voxel
Anything Like Blacklotus On The East Coast
Feb 22, 20071. Reliable rackmount services that cater to small customers (a single 1u).
2. IRC permitted.
3. Similar pricing to Blacklotus.
4. Reliable multi homed, well peered network (a Switch and Data reseller maybe?).
5. Reliable power infrastructure (I don't want to replace fried hardware because they screw around with their power system occasionally).
The ideal datacenter would be located along the transit fiber between Philiadelphia, PA and northern VA so I don't have to drive far to deliver the server or upgrade hardware.
Route From Level 3 To Qwest On The West Coast
Aug 30, 2009I am looking at getting some Qwest bandwidth at 200 Paul, San Francisco. Not being too familar with Qwest's network and as part of evaluating that decision I did some testing to see how the routes/latency looked from various points on the Internet and from our other data centers. For pretty much all the testing I did from the major tier 1/2 networks, Qwest has great peering in places you would expect resulting is decent routes and low latency.
The strange thing is that the one exception is routes from Level 3. As an example, traffic from various Northern California points on Level 3's network to a test IP on Qwest's network in Sunnyvale all go via Denver to connect to Qwest and then back to the Bay Area. For LA originating traffic, it goves via Dallas. Same thing for Seattle that is going via Denver.
Hard to imagine these two tier 1 providers don't peer at any location on the west coast at all? Is this typical between these two or is there some temporary outage right now? Or is there some peering spat going on between them?
Seems pretty silly for traffic to go 3,000 miles between points that are only 10 miles apart!
Here is an example of the route to a test IP sunnyvale.speedtest.qwest.net (205.171.214.185):
1 vlan89.csw3.SanJose1.Level3.net (4.68.18.190) 0 msec

Colocation For First Time Server On West Coast
May 1, 2008I'm colo'ing my first server, and I'm a little nervous about sending my server to the mainland (I'm in Hawaii) for colo. I was looking at Pacific Rack, and also at iWeb. Can anybody comment on these or recommend anybody else? I just need very basic 1U colo.
Dependability and low ping times from Hawaii are my main priorities. Preferably something that Time Warner is tied into since most Hawaii residents use Road Runner cable modems.
I'm going to be running a dedicated zimbra server.
Level3 East Coast Providers
Sep 7, 2008either located in L3 facility or L3 connection.
looking for:
2-4GB memory
2x 160gb drives
3-4TB monthly bandwidth
dual xeon cpus or quad
preferable around $200-$250/mo.
am i asking for too much? everyone seems to only offer 1 or 2TB bandwidth but i'm hovering right around 1.5TB a month at my current location so i need a bit more for growth.
i run a non-profit gaming website and our budget is somewhat tight. we've been in a speakeasy datacenter for over 7 years and the only reason we're moving is because we outgrew the small server we were blessed with for so many years.
East Coast Level3 Resellers
Aug 28, 2008There doesn't seem to be a list of folks that resell Level3 anywhere, and doing a GIS doesn't really help, either.
I'm looking for a couple of names of some companies that offer dedicated servers in Level3 facilities? Preferably in the Northeast, but anywhere on the East Coast is probably fine, too.
I know Limestone and TMS are L3 resellers, but they aren't east coast...

View 15 Replies View RelatedDedicated Server In US (west Coast) Or Asia Region
Aug 18, 2008does anybody know a cheap dedicated server in US (west coast) or Asia region. The price should be arround $40 per month. no setup or less than $50.
Server is for DNS, SNMP monitoring and some backup data only. Minimum requirement are 512MB+, small CPU, 80GB/120GB+ HDD and 200GB+ Traffic should be enough for it. More than 1 IP, remote power and Gentoo Linux is preferred.
I had searched in the past but it seeams that companies like vrtservers/theplanet/etc. will have much higher prices right now as a half year before. I know there were one for $29-$39 in SJ or LA depending on the RAM/HDD/IP but I don't remember which company it was.
But in general it seams that servers in Europe (NL, Germany, ...) will be much cheaper right now with much more support and features like RemotePower, more IP addresses, ...
Softlayer Alternative? East Coast/Dallas Or EU
Oct 1, 2008Ive recently been getting blips on my private lan with SL and have been unable to get it resolved.
Everything from firewall configs (despite its not being changed in 6 months) to the fibre being dirty and switch flapping has been blamed so being in this position and going in circles for 24 hours means I'm considering alternatives.
The issue would be so bad but the issue is on the 16 core box used for the DB and it uses the iSCSI which means the data is enjoying itself getting corrupted. It wouldnt be so bad if after I'm told its fixed, repair the DB it happens all over again.
So bascially this is what I need elsewhere
1x 4 Core Harpertown 4GB and 500GB in Raid 10
1x 4 Core Clovertown 4GB and 250GB in Raid 5
3x 4 Core Clovertown 4GB and single disk
1x Opteron Dual Core 2GB and single disk
1x 15 Core Tigerton 16GB and 250GB in Raid 10 or iSCSI
Bandwidth around 10TB a month
Id need a private lan and really I would rather a 1GB port on the private side.
To get away from the problems im having I would also rather a dedicated switch as to avoid the kind of issues im having now

Can anyone recommend other comparable facilities on the East Coast, or recommend Equinix resellers?

Must handle vBulletin real well, have the requirements I need, and have great customer service.
This is a local forum, which is why I would like to be on a Westcoast Host.
