San Diego datatcenters anyone?
Anyone here from sandiego and know a good datacener.
I currently have servers coloed in pNAP, but I want somthing a bit closer to home. I hate shipping things overthere too.
Also, I have a question about the actual datacenter, do you actually get to setup the server yourself if you buy a private rack?
Thanks,
Bijan

Check out datacentermap.com.
It looks like American Internet Services has a data center in San Diego.

ais is VERY strong.
btw
someone look familiar? LOL
Whats that supposed to mean?
m5 doesn't do colo (it redirects to their dedi page).
I have a VPS with Amerinoc, who colo at AIS in San Diego. Great connectivity. LMK if you need any traceroutes/speedtests/etc.
A quick WHT search for offers with pricing shows only these guys (in an AIS DC):

Ya that guy quite popular :-/
I've seen him somewhere, not in quickweb & americanis, but somewhere.. damn I forgot
Looking at scalematrix atm
Santrex?
These guys are in san diego as well http://www.i2bnetworks.com/
No.. But something big like liquid or linode.. Right in the front page.
Back on subject... Los Angeles is roughly 1.5-2 hours away from San Diego, so you may want to consider using a Los Angeles datacenter, which will open up many more choices for you. You shouldn't experience much of a difference in terms of latency from San Diego vs. Los Angeles.
We have a full cab with QuadraNet in Los Angeles (530 W, Telecom Center) and the service is great. Would highly recommend them to anyone.
Excellent advice. Lots of LA colo offers in WHT, starting from $50/month for 1U/1A/10+ Mbits worth of BW.
I have a car that litterally overheats if I drive over 15 miles.
What does a metaphorically overheating car do? :P
Take a bus?
I think he wants to setup and install the server, etc physically at the datacenter, and he is residing in San Diego?
Thanks, I missed that bit in my attempt at humor.
@bijan588 -- rent one?
I dunno about buses, but Amtrak to LA Union Station and LA Metro from there is an extremely doable option, especially since most DCs seem to be in downtown LA. You can have the hardware shipped direct to the DC if you'd rather not lug it up and down and around public transport.
Also, how does this actual colocation work.
I just shipped it all too pnap and they set it up.
If I buy a 1/2 rack will I get to physicly set it all up.

Some datacenter's offer free initial racking + OS install, QuadraNet does this at no cost for us, however sometimes Ethan (our tech) goes in and racks/installs it himself.
If the datacenter doesn't offer free initial racking/OS install you can pay for remote hands service.
99% of the people in a bus don't know what a server is...
But you can ship the server to the datacenter directly, then go in and rack/setup yourself.
Still waiting on the quotes
Scalematrix gave me a quote on a rack 999.99
Ima call and make sure this includes it's and such
Ips* on my phone so I can't edit
$999/m for a half cab? How much bandwidth?
Full cab, brosef.
Its on the 99.5 percentile at 10mbps
hmm, after my free initial month, they charge me $25 to rack a server
