Colocate
Mar 27, 2007
What I figured out is probably I need to have my own server as I am not finding them as an offer anywhere, reasonable enough to buy.
We do application hosting, and this is what we have seen until now isWe have database intensive applications
Never used beyond 300 GB of our metered bandwidth
All Applications consumed maximum of 3 GB space till date
All databases have never grown beyond 3 GB.
So we thought to have server with following specs and then collocate.AMD Opteron Dual Core
2 x 36 GB SCSI drives
Currently 2 GB RAM but should expandable to 4 GB
Preferred Super Micro motherboard (with IMPI)
1000-1500 GB metered quality bandwidth
10 mps dedicated port (up gradable to 100 mps like Softlayer)
Remote reboot port
6- IPs
Problems:We are not located in US
Never collocated before and do not know any intricacies.
Will colocation is practical option to us? If so, please help us know the RIGHT COLOCATION SPECS, the expected cost and the thing we should consider for decision. Also the appropriate server specs to order.

how to proceed with collocation say somewhere in usa ? Since i am based in Canada, and dell.com wont accept orders from me..... i did end up buying a server and get it shipped here and than later ship it across border and pay hefty fees for that to just get server collocated.
How do you guys do it ? Where you get your parts() from ?
Above all i am still lost as to what 95th percentile rule is and how the $xy per xy mbps works?

I am hosting my own web site on Jboss using my home windows machine.
Currently everything is running smooth apart from the now-and-then disonnection from my cable ISP (normal connection-not business)
Should I just get a business internet connection and do things myslef or should I consider colocating my server?

colocate because you have sites the size of myspace or because you offer dedicated server hosting yourselves? Because if I have the choice of renting a high end server at ThePlanet for $200 per month, or pay $300 a month for only bandwidth and just to have my server sit there in their facility, I rather rent. Plus I read a few posts in this forum where you guys say that you spend hours in the colocate. Does your server require that much maintenance or what are you doing?
