    The entire room basically becomes a hot aisle.  You can expect to walk into the datacenter and feel the room temperature to be in the 78-82deg range.   Contrary to popular (mis)belief, the worst thing you can do is try and operate your datacenter like it's a walk in refrigerator.  Mixing and...

    The leasing company they use does not offer Capital leases, only operating leases. They were likely leased on 24-Month FMV terms, if it was originally a $700 server, the lease would have been $32/month for 24-months with a likely $300 residual balance at the end of the 24 month term. They could...

    Existing overhead delivery. Additionally raised flooring and trying to use pressure to "push" cold air up, is inefficient. Why fight the natural flow of air?

    I know the leasing company involved here, their leasing policies hold a blanket first right on any and all assets under the master schedule, if they are behind on any invoices, they'll take EVERYTHING.  They don't play :)

    A sad state for VPS offers

    Nothing in ARIN's policies say you can't "give away" IPs. Thats just a marketing tactic. You do however, have to ensure that they are justifiable and maintain records of such.  You'll also find that a representative of your organization will also have to sign an attestation that the records are...

    In the grand scheme, containment is a minor cost. We have opted to go with a 'hard' containment solution. There are much more economical solutions based upon 'strip' door style containment. For example, Savvis, uses this heavily in all of their facilities, from the same vendor we are using. It...

    Each method has it's individual advantages and disadvantages. For us, due to the physical layout of our facility, cold isle containment is optimal from an installation perspective.  The key concept is you need to maintain the separation of your hot and cold to prevent intermixing of your return...

    We are actually working on some designs ala OVH and Facebook / Google for use in our dedicated servers, it makes no sense, operationally, to be wasting large sums of money on what are essentially shelves ;)
