Wish you had infra in Buenos Aires.
I'm not sure what you mean ?
I wish !, but we are not a provider nor have any hardware, should the Federation become bigger than AWS ?, thats our goal, but that is for the benefit of the federation sellers and buyers, so that they themselves can compete
I know we have providers with clouds in the area, it's a matter of time before they provide access, I will poke somebody local and ask for a timeframe.
Who is this "Uptime Alliance"? Do they rent space in host1 or are they host1? Where are they based?
They seem to run quite a lot of cloud.net locations.
would prefer to see more details on all providers in the federation.
I see both sides in this, is it for the LET market? No. Take it up a level to the home user or the small business that needs services that you would not be able to provide. Those for me are rich targets for this.
They are not so price sensitive or so concerned about who pays who, provides support and so on. There are very few differences to this compared to the way many are doing it right now.
Is this however an enticement package where costs are going to change. Yep, without doubt. But all in all for the right people this could well be a great opportunity.
Totally get the comments from providers and their concerns, but I also see the opportunity to outgrow many of you with less cost, risk and effort, do I care about crossing the morality line if it exists? Nope, I certainly care about customer experience but only where it can make a profit.
we have quite a lot of the info public here: http://onapp.com/sellers/detail
Slightly of topic but didn't Hostgator move everything out of Soft layer and into EIGs Provo facility a couple of years ago?
yup, I think they did ... but I am sure there are still servers left in the old theplanet facilities. Either way, it was more to make a point
