We were unable to find any datacenters in Phoenix that were willing to charge a reasonable price for IPs. We eventually decided to bite the bullet and accept $1-per-IP, however, then we were unable to find any datacenters that could provide the amount of IPs we needed.
So we chose ColoCrossing Buffalo via NXNW, which:
-had reasonably-priced IPs
-can actually provide us with IPs
-is a well known company
-is a well known datacenter
-is in our price range
-can support our bandwidth/transfer requirements
-is in an actual professional-grade datacenter, not some guy in a strip-mall office
-can meet our support/remote hands requirements
-doesn't have really goofy rules
We still considered it long and hard. The fact that our servers will be a very long way away means that if our connection gets term'd here, then it's pretty much game over. So that was taken into consideration.
For me as well VPN will be great with a < 40ms ping.
Best of luck @Damian !
How much is moving your servers going to cost @Damian?
More than I want to think about... I think Adam is in the corner, weeping softly about it...
This would probably cover it:
Haha, I would believe it :P
Is someone of you going there actually, or you will ship the equipment to the DC?
We're shipping the equipment to the DC. I'm considering going there, too.
This wasn't a problem when you signed up?
It was a bit of an exaggeration, but, not really...
Not so expensive if LTL
If the shipping is $350 per server, and airfare for you and the servers comes out less, I'd fly and get the servers online a day earlier since no shipper will deliver tomorrow, and then make @ChicagoVPS_Chris buy you a nice steak.
@miTgiB that's exactly what I meant, flying with stuff will be cheaper and faster...
If they can find ticket(s)..
Well how long is it going to take you to move servers @Damian :P
