Who are the people/companies with a good reputation with the WHT community who provide Internap or Peer1 colo? And it seems it's mostly in LA or NY, I know both Peer1 and Internap have a presence in other places, is there anyone reselling out of anywhere else?
Pure Internap or Pure Peer1 hosts only please. The only one I know of right now is H4Y.us
I have almost finished designing my site and so I'm looking for a host. However, in looking for hosts I found that a lot of them were scams or were not to be trusted. There were lots of review websites that gave a top 10 listing, and the top 2 always used to be justhost and hostingmonster. Which I didn't really trust as Justhost gave me this silly thing when I tried to leave the page saying 'you can talk to a special agent to get a discount' and all that tosh.
So basically, I'm looking for a host that has a fair amount of space, preferably linux OS and preferably in the UK, and it must have MySQL support and be nice cheap one if possible, around £3.00 a month is fine.
I am trying to find dedicated/managed hosts that colo with internap. So far found Softlayer.

I don't mind paying for hosting, but I only need one script installed on a server that runs a cron file once per day and I don't want to pay $5 to $10 for that.
My question is basically this: is my credit card safe with these $1 web hosts? Can they be trusted to keep my identity safe?
i toke 3 servers from RapidSwitch , 2 runing from 3 month and one vps yasterday ,
today many one of customers calling me the servers not working !
so i open ticket in rapidswitch to tell them there is problem for one server not working from ssh , they told me we will check it ,
after this is update i see onther ticket open from them sys :
====================================================
Hi,
We have had to suspend your servers because you have not entered a correct address. It is part of our contract that you always enter a working address, please update this as soon as possible - when you have done so we can unsuspend the servers.
Regards,
Ed
RapidSwitch
=================================================
the right way is datacenter or company contact customer first or suspend all servers first
also i updated them and there is no reply from one hour
what the correct way to raise the issue of this company?
and how can get my date from them
How is Peer1? Their site looks nice, but I don't know much more than that. I took some pings and the pings are bigger than some other providers like HE/Internap in the same region ( San Jose, California ).
Please provide your feedback on their stability/pricing and any comparisons you can make with it and HE/Internap.
does anyone here host with Peer1 or ServerBeach (same company)? I see their advertisements here at WHT non-stop, but I have yet to see any reviews, positive nor negative.

They have a datacenter in Vancouver and I am think of colocating with them.
Anyone had any experiences good or bad with Peer1 in Miami? The first concern that comes to mind is hurricanes but it's hard to find a datacenter that's not in the path of some sort of natural disaster potential.
View 6 Replies View Relatedcolocation in Los Angeles [1/2 cab to full cab] and have been strongly leaning toward Peer1. I've done a ton of research on Peer1 through this site, and the general consensus seems to be that they're very solid.
I came across a handful of posts from 2005 and 2006 about problems in NYC, and there are two or three people on WHT who seem to have long-standing issues with Peer1, but I haven't found a single thread labeled "Peer1 outage" or "Peer1 downtime", which -- considering the size of the company -- makes them seem very stable.
What I'd like to hear is some specific reports from people who colo with Peer1 (especially those in Los Angeles) about how much annual downtime and packetloss is typical with Peer1. How many power outages, and for how long? How many router issues, and for how long? That kind of thing...
The longer you've been with Peer1, the better, but issues covering the last 2-3 years would probably be most relevant (things can change a lot from 4+ years ago). I'd just like to go into this feeling confident that I'm making the right choice. [It's a big step because I'm thousands of miles from L.A. and need things to work -- I don't want to have to move once I'm there.]
Finally, while I am obviously leaning toward Peer1, I'm also open to suggestions for other colo providers in Los Angeles. However, they have to be stable companies with a proven track record and fast 24/7 support -- If I call at 4 in the morning, I need an engineer on the phone standing by my server in a matter of minutes. I also need the security of a company that is big enough (and charges enough) that it won't be going out of business two years from now.
Has anyone had any experience with Peer1's Toronto datacenter?
View 0 Replies View RelatedAll I want to do is buy the parts and ship them to some company that lives on the Peer1 network and build a single unit. I know this can be done, but does anybody know of a company that offers 1U colo on Peer1's network? (in NY)
View 14 Replies View RelatedWe need people with Peer1 as a backbone and where we can (with a planned schedule that we can arrange with you) go in frequently to do maintenance on the server.
We need this in both Vancouver and New York.
We'd just get collocation directly from Peer1 in those parts but it's too costly.
Anyone know of where to go?
If not, anyone know of any companies there that peer with Peer1 in that area whose colo is cheaper?
I just moved 3 servers to colo with Peer1 in Miami. I just had 3 great years of colo with Fluidhosting so my standards are high. I wanted to buy directly from a Tier2, however, and Miami is close enough that I can access the datacenter if I need to which will be a plus.
My sales rep, Delynn, was great. Many of you are hosts and know that buying directly from Tier1's and Tier2's can be a pain in the butt because of the typical big company sales approach. You know when they refuse to give you a price and instead insist on knowing what your "budget" is... Delynn didn't do that, Peer1 has some great deals for smaller setups like 1/8th cabinets w/ 5mbps. They also gave me a month to month contract for a modest increase over the full year contract amount.
As for setup: The servers were installed within 2 hours of arriving on a Saturday. The tech gave me a call and confirmed everything was ok and that my 3 servers + unmanaged switch were doing ok on the 5 amp circuit since my servers are pretty low power usage. Their NOC is very smart and fast and available 24/7 afaik.
Important things to note: Luckily the day before my servers arrived I had an "oh @#%@" moment when I realized that I'd probably need to send them my own switch/power strip/ethernet cables. Sure enough this was the case and I overnighted a box to arrive at the same time as my servers. IMO this is a rather small caveat. It's not a big deal to send them a 50-100 dollar 100mbps unmanaged switch that's only using 0.2 amps.
So it's been "so far so good" I've been a fan of the Peer1 network since years ago when Fluidhosting used to carry them. As one would expect the Peer1 Miami pings to Europe/Asia aren't as good as the Internap routes from the northeast but I'm expecting the nearly flawless Peer1 network connectivity that I remember. I will give a network update in a few months.
I have a very specific need to fill for a client. But I need someone who has colocation or dedicated server space in Vancouver, or New York.
You'd take a cut of profits made for helping, plus the idea is just damn cool.
You need to have:
-Peer1 upstream.
-Physical access to your servers.
im looking to spend $1000USD per month on a dedicated windows server (mission critical). But not sure which one to go with, which one is reliable rackspace, peer1, liquidweb or webair?
p.s I dont really need managed webhosting, mainly require a good network with 100% up time, hardware support and server monitoring alert.
I don't know if this is the right place to ask this question or not .. but, i am going to try.
I would like to get more informations about nLayer.
Is it good internet provider? Can they be compared with Internap for example? ( if it can be asked that way .. )
I need more info regarding stability, connections with Europe from USACDN etc.
I see that FDC is offering $12 per Mbit/sec for InterNAP bandwidth. I'm really interest on this offer. Are there anyone colocating severs at FDC and using their InterNAP bandwidth? if so, could you please give me some reviews and your experience?
How is their support and InterNAP bandwidth?
who would you pick? Timewarner or Internap?
View 14 Replies View RelatedMy colo is charging about $80/Mbit, they use InterNAP. Is that reasonable? This is in west coast/california.
That brings me to my other question, how do you know whats a good network? How is hurricane electric compared to InterNAP?
fixedorbit.com shows HE on the top 10 list and shows a lot of peering. I don't see InterNAP on that list at all! Does that mean thats it not as good?
The more peering, the better? (I guess we assume that the network provider isn't over selling and isn't cramming a lot of customers into a single port etc...)
I'm looking at bringing Internap bandwidth into my new cage at the AtlantaNAP to cross connect with a cabinet at 250 Williams.

I am trying to find out if one of our old company servers is still with them (was in their cabinet), and if a backup could be retrieved for a fee.
I am getting my quote back Tuesday but need a little bargaining power with these guys...
Oakland, Ca datacenter
40mbps, 20A, 42U rack.
What should I be looking at price range here, how much per mbps?
Only info I've seen is from 2003 where people were saying $200/mbps. Obviously prices have come WAY down. I've seen people on here reselling internap bandwidth for $12/mbps, but they might have bought a huge commit.
Does anyone have any ballpark figures on how much InterNAP charges per-mbit on a 200Mbit commit over gig-e?
View 14 Replies View RelatedWe are in the process of starting a new project for a client and we are trying to decide which network to place it on.
We have a choice of a Level3/Time Warner mix or pure Internap. Obviously the Internap bandwidth is a bit more expensive, but since this customers website serves an international community we are thinking that Internap bandwidth would be well worth the cost.
What are the advantages of using Internap? How is the network performance? We've setup a machine on the Internap network and have begun running tests, but I would like to hear from people who have direct experience with Internap bandwidth.
After running 6 or so dedicated servers purchased thru several different resellers, my company decided to get a rack at the Chicago InterNap DC.
The quote we got was $3,400 per month inclusive of cabinet, Usage based 10/100, and Cross connects.
Have a couple questions.
A) Is that price in the ballpark of where it should be?
and
B) Our quote states Usage based 100mb Ethernet (10MBps Min). Tier2 at $150 month and $1,400 for the 10.00 Mbps Base. Being new to this, I have no idea exactly how much bandwidth we can use before the "usage" fees kick in.
How does this work?
As we are finishing our migration plans to Cisco OER. I would like to get everyone's thoughts on the low latency "brand name" internap bandwidth.
Do you think that the high priced brandname is going to continue with Cisco finally releasing OER to what a large number of datacenters use as their primary core switch? In my eyes the FCP and the Avaya/RouteScience platform just lost a lot of value. The OER product looks very complete and in testing works excellent, the final verdict will be in what the platform actually does.
