RE: [cobalt-developers] Server Co-Location



I have personally met Alex. I would echo below and say you have a pretty reasonable level or security with RaQport.

Thanks Jon. After an extensive search of providers of co-location
services in Ontario, we found none that could offer adequate bandwith at
a competitive price, let alone raq-specific service. We use only about
25 GB of transfers a month, but we need burstable bandwidth, which
raqport offers. Also, we prefer to deal with a Cobalt specialist, and we
need 24/7/365 reboots. Cobaltracks is very price competitive but offers
no telephone service. They take several hours to respond to an on-line
trouble ticket and that's when their ticket interface is actually
working. There is no service at all on Sundays. The raqs themselves have
never failed, but we have had repeated connectivity problems. We have
been running a pair of mirrored Raq4s at cobaltracks, but have now come
to the conclusion that preventing hacker attacks has displaced hardware
failure as the principal threat to our business. Therefore, we want the
raq550-specific security services that raqport offers. They have offered
us a competivie package and our only concern is that we know nothing
about the company, and they offer no details on their website. We're
looking for a long-term relationship and we would prefer to know who we
were dealing with.
Ken

Hi Ken,
I do not know much about raqport other then I have seen them on the net
for a few years.

I am just wonder why you do not just upgrade your Raq you have now to a
550?

There are also many good colocate facilities here right in Ontario. "
Not trying to take away from Raqport "

We have just opened a new data center with Digital Networks in
Smithfalls that is working out really well.

PS: for reference ....I am just located in Brockville Area
