ColoCrossing and New York?
http://www.colocrossing.com/datacenter/newyork/ny1 specifies that the datacenter is in mid-Manhattan in NYC, but most providers who use ColoCrossing are providing servers in Buffalo. What am I missing here?
Comments
GEO is saying: Location: New York, New York, United States (US)
We have 2 servers in their NYC, NY location and 4 in their Buffalo, NY. Only their NYC, NY ones were effected in 2012 by the Hurricanes which was nice. We also have 8 servers in their LA location, however the last couple weeks their network has been iffy there, we have been reassured they are fixing it.
If anyone wants to test latency to their different DCs:
NYC: nynode1.mpserv.net
Buffalo: nynode3.mpserv.net
LA: lanode1.mpserv.net
@concerto49 also got servers in NY @ colocrossing
Actually I believe that DC is Voxel's in NYC.
We use the two machines in NYC for Minecraft Hosting. We actually have more machines in their Buffalo place than I first though, some we resell to customers and also a 3 other machines. 2 for OpenVZ and one for our main site.
Are there any providers here with the NYC, NY location?
NYC is more expensive than Buffalo and has higher security. It's been around for much longer. Buffalo is their newer location that they have been promoting.
I think the closest we'll get to an LEB in NYC is probably an LEB from any of the providers in Choopa.
Isn't that New Jersey? It's still not NYC.
Depending on who you ask it's in the "NYC Metro area"
Piscataway, is pretty much, as close to NYC metro as your gonna get.
What would be the interest like for NYC anyway considering there already is New Jersey and Buffalo?
Pretty much only for FOREX and stock trading, every ms matters there.
You get the best discounts in Buffalo...
Intel E3-1240V2
32GB RAM
4x 1TB RE4 HDD
LSI 9260-4i w/ BBU
I can use colocrossing and get this in buffalo with a /27 ip stack for $199 a month(on a 24 month contract however - no set up fees).
100mbit or 1gigabit? How much bandwidth?
LSI-9260 or LSI-9266? There's a big difference.
Anyhow, we've got our own deals.
I'd love to have an extremely low-end VPS in NYC to host my Git repository :P
