A request for dedicated server or colocation
Hi, anyone has any options for the following? It can either be colocation or dedicated server.
1x 100 Gigabit/s QSPF28 internet port with 10 Gigabit 95% commit or 1TB egress for less than 1 euro pricing.
10 kW A+B usage based pricing
4 U
If you have 1x 400 Gigabit/s or 1x 200 Gigabit/s connections, I wouldn't mind considering them.

Already talked to Stan.
Location?
Are you looking for this in the EU as you named euro for pricing. Hit us up we have some great speeds out of our New York location that does quite well for the EU.
@Zare
EU or US East
If you could Take at least 30% commit of that Port (30gbit); instead 10% we could make a offer
Otherwise at 10gbit we we would only be willing to give a 40Gbit Port. I am sorry.
Let Me know If its possible for you.
100 GBit/s or 400 GBit/s with 10 % commitment is possible, but 10 kW in 4U is a little bit heavy.
speak to jake @PureVoltage for US location or stan @RoyaleHosting for NL
We can also help in Sofia. Although, I am not sure how will you cool 4Us 10KW.
HI!
You can try contacting @BackboneDirect - they can probably help with that
We can get you all of it, pricing for everything up to 100G connection is already on our site www.microtronixdc.com. We don't meter traffic, so if we give you a 100G drop, you get the whole thing as much as your equipment can support.
For 200G and 400G it probably would be best to get you special pricing for a DIA drop from the edge, but check regular pricing then we can talk. We are a pure fiber DC, so the speed is not an issue.
10kW for 4U is also not an issue, we can either put you in one of our new high density racks, I just put a new one online last week and we have space, or you can rent a full rack of your own, with those speeds and power needs it would work out better than you think it would.
@djunior is with backbone direct. Talk to him for a good deal in NL also.
10KW on 4U? And usage based pricing?
Good luck getting that anywhere.
Actually, my post above, we have high density racks and can get it easily 😁
I need a commit and usage-based pricing, I don't want to overpay.
Cheapest option would be NOCIX/1530Swift
@AaronW
Still think your request is outrageous, but he's the cheapest you'll get with some level of quality and good uptime.
Hi,
what hardware exactly is this?
1024 cores in 4U, dozen terabyte of ram, and hundreds of terabytes of NVMe.
I actually need 4x 100 gigabit ports, with 10 gigabit 95% commit.
Crazy build. Curious about the cooling system
Average LowEndTalk user
Hi,
sorry, if i was not precise enough.
I was asking for the exact hardware, that means what vendor and model.
Requests like this from an anonymous entity in a forum that is not really famous to attract customers that would request something that will easily go into a middle 4 digit amount per month, looks to be quiet strange. ( no offense dear LET )
This kind of request you are doing here is usually hardware that will scratch or go over the 6 digit buying amount. No one will seriously give this kind of hardware out of hands to just any provider.
For this kind of hardware questions of compliance, security, certifications and insurance would automatically pop up as requirement to "bid" on this.
But none of this is mentioned here, as if any idiot who claims to be a (professional) hoster would be ok for such a customer to host this kind of hardware.
So please forgive me and i hope for your understanding, that i am questioning if this is a joke or a serious request.
If its not a joke, please let us know the vendor and model of your hardware. I assume you did not bring "1024 cores", "dozen terabyte of ram", "hundreds of terabytes of NVMe" into a 4U chassis including cooling in self-build mode ;-)
I am just considering options, I already have a provider I will likely go with, so even if I don't find anything here it's okay. In case I want to work with a company on LET, I would just ask them to do this and that in order for me to colocate. Don't be so serious, I will not provide vendors and model of the hardware. All you need to provide me a quote is power consumption, networking and units of space. And by the way, don't be so mean towards people you walk among, aren't they your colleagues to some extent.
Hi,
thank you for clarification!
I dont see where i have been mean to anyone with this writing, but in case someone will feel offended: i hope that its clear, that its not my goal to offend anyone.
@layer7 You are spot on with your questions honestly!
My experience has always been, I've not seen someone ask for 100G with 10G commit, like if you need that much BW, you need that much bandwidth, you aren't trolling 10G randomly. Now lets talk 400G, again, 400G is small ISP type of bandwidth here, if you need that much, you need that much. This isn't some VPS node asking for 10G burst so they can "sell" their customers 10G connections but really only use 1G to 2G 90% of the time, its a selling point.
At these BW requirements, leave alone power needs, it makes no sense to ask for less than 1% commit, someone needing that much BW truly needs that much BW. As a DC owner, I am not selling 400G with a 1% commitment, I'm not selling 100G with a 10% commit
a firesale on your port would knock the network down on that switch if I oversold just one switch. If you need 100G+ you need to come with the coin to pay for unmetered basically, that's the risk I'm willing to take as a DC owner. So this request is a bit worry some I can see the questions.
Actually there could be many cases... like a peak for streaming services for a specific event, backup and disaster recovery transfers, better handling of ddos attacks.
It is not common for companies to commit 100% of their port, someone that needs a 10G port does not commit 100% of 10G, because that link would be pretty heavily loaded.
Someone that has 5-6-7G Traffic will take one 100G Port if the budget allows it and commit 10% of the port, that is the minimum most carriers want.
100G commit on one 100G Port has no real purpose, why would you pay for a service that you are not using?
Imagine how expensive this gets when you start having 2x,4x,8x100G LAGs.
We don't do anything less than a full cabinet and we don't sell metered bandwidth.
Full cabinet at 10kW with a full 100Gbit port with us would be $5740/mo
Good price, I was given 8k euro from a reseller of equinix.
Check out our site, with microtronix that same setup is $5200, plus you only pay for used power with us. Plus we own our DC, not reselling.
