good colo provider..
I dont want to pay the earth though!
i'm interested in putting two servers (possibly scale up for more) in the South Bay (i.e. San Jose, Fremont, etc.) colocation facitity. Any suggestion on the providers would be greatly appreciated. and what to look for.
i only know Hurricane Electric (and Savvis?).
Any colo sites in this city?
View 4 Replies View RelatedNot that this is my case, but I would like to know what happens when a co-location provider goes belly up and does not have more service in the data center.
It is not the data-center itself, only the colo provider in that data-center.
What happens if the servers have a payed contract for a year with time left on the DC and what happens when the payment is made monthly.
moving to a new colo provider, at Equinix in Ashburn. We are looking to lease a full cabinet of space.
More than one quote we have received includes a charge for us to buy the PDUs. The pricing for the PDUs seems to be market-rate, and the PDUs seem to be good quality based on what I've read here (usually APC).
My question is: Is this now standard practice that the customer owns the PDUs? Our needs are not special in any way -- just 2 PDUs with 20-25 ports on each.
I don't mind paying for the PDUs, but my concern is the responsibility. I would prefer that we are not responsible for the PDUs. What if one of them fails? I guess we'd be down potentially for a few days while a new PDU is purchased. Meanwhile, if the PDU was not our responsiblity, the colo provider would probably have some spares on-hand and we'd be up and running in a matter of an hour or less.
One of the sites I run is a forum with a political component, and 4-5 times over the last week we've been seeing DoS attacks. They're not terribly sophisticated -- generally 1-3 compromised servers throwing packets my way -- but they're enough to clog my pipes and take my sites down.
What I'd like to do is put a new server up at a data center that's D(D)oS aware that can hopefully respond to these attacks automatically. My current provider has been giving solid support, but the best they can do is null route the affected IP, rather than filtering the incoming attack.
Can y'all name a few providers I should look into? Right now I'm just looking to move 1 box (or maybe a box and a firewall depending on the setup).
What is a reasonable rate for ram upgrades?
I'm looking to upgrade the ram in my web server and was wondering what others have paid lately for the upgrade.
Going from 2 to 4GB.
what would you guys say are some reasonable (not too cheap and not too expensive) shared hosting prices?
im looking for how much space/transfer for $10, $20, and $30 budgets...
moving my colocation (just a single 1U server) to another provider. Is it reasonable to expect to be able to pay the original provider a fee to ship the server to the new location for me instead of requiring me to fly to the DC to pick up the server and do it myself?
View 2 Replies View Relatedi have a server for hosting wibsites, with 1000 mbp connection speed, but with 2000 gb limited bandwidth.
i need more bandwidth , so i have 2 options: 1000 gb cost 100$
or unlimited bandwidth with 10mbp connection speed.
is 10mbp enough for this server ( it contains about 200 website )?
We are upgrading the power in our data center and moving to an APC 5000VA UPS. It uses an L6-30P 220v plug.
I have asked for a quote from our data center and they have said it will be $0 install but $400/month.
Is that reasonable?
The only reason I ask is because they quoted me an L5-30P which is 30amps over 120v for only $225/month.
Most of my traffic is in South America (argentina). I need a VPS with lots of cheap (500GB-700GB) bandwidth available, plus maybe 1-2GB of RAM. Having a VPS as close to Argentina as possible might work well.
I think maybe VPS from Texas might work?
Does anyone have any recommendations for a VPS provider in the South Africa region?

I just can't find any.
I'm one of the Layeredtech "future refugees" looking for a new hosting. I have a AMD Athlon 3000+ 1GB RAM + 2 160GB HDD's and last week I started looking at LT specials to upgrade our server (1 website only, huge traffic). I'm glad that I got the "Price Hike" increase before :-)
After looking at all the posts in the forum about unmanaged providers I really like the prices and reputation of Hivelocity, but I'm not so sure about the speed of their network.
The website is in Spanish (I'm from Spain), and we got 50% of our visitors from Spain, 45% from South America and the rest from all over the world. I tried their download tests and they were slower than LT (from Spain), with the pings 20/30% higher and the traceroute has like 5 more hops.
Any experiences from European/South American customers of Hivelocity?
I run a UK based GSP which has been successful in dedicated server packages.
I'm looking to expand over to south Carolina / greenville / anywher near Clemson uni. Personal easy access to the machines is a must have.
Can anyone recommend some providers in these areas. I prefer the 'personal' service over the mass scale providers.
It has been a while since I have posted on WHT.
I'm consulting to a large company that would like to setup

Does anyone know of any reputable data centers located in the countries listed below?
Moscow
South Africa
Egypt
Dubai
We have a client looking for just 1u and 1Mbps in each location.
View 7 Replies View RelatedPlease 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 am considering moving over from a dedicated server to a VPS solution, but host files via a CDN provider.
Can people give me their experiences of CDN providers please.
In particular i am looking at:
The prices they are paying
The quality of their bandwidth
The speeds they are getting (average)
Is your provider a reseller of another

For all my sites I used the first Ip until recently I tried to use the second ip for a particular site
Every thing went alright, I thought my site with second ip is working until yesterday I received a Call from India and the guy told me that he could not view my website because he got some thing like Network error DNS failed
I checked my site it was loading, I asked my provider and he says nothing is wrong and he can view my site
I checked
[url]
I got this Error
ERROR: Although you have at least 2 NS records, they both point to the same server, resulting in a single point of failure. You are required to have at least 2 nameservers per RFC 1035 section 2.2.
I talked with my provide but the response was this
''''''''''
This message will show up always when dnsstuff is able to detect that both nameserver names are pointing to the same physical system. This message doesn't affect connectivity and/or performance.

View 24 Replies View RelatedI've been having a rough morning with my hosting.
They're claiming that the problem is with the upstream provider.
So I had a question for all you smarter than a 5th grader guys.
When there's a problem with the upstream provider, shouldn't all my IPs go down?
I have a /24 with hosted with these guys, but some IPs are up while others keep going up/down.
Does anyone have experience with a good IRC VPS provider? I want to run an couple of BNC's. Unmanaged is fine. My budget for this would be $20/month.
