View Full Version : Own datacenter?

Which hosting companies can actually boast to own their own class 1 datacenter?

I believe Verio, VenturesOnline, and Pair all have their own - but is there anyone else out there?

Curious...


EDIT:

I'm actually looking to track down a hosting package with a large company - preferably one with its own servers in Europe - Germany, perhaps, but with English support if possible.

Anyone any ideas?

Is it Class 1 or Class A?

Any specific reasons why the servers need to be in Europe? Many US datacenters on the East Coast get great speed to Europe with the advantage of cheap US bandwidth.

Rackshack don't offer virtual hosting. I don't believe they do, anyway.

I'm already using servers in the USA - 3 different datacenters. I'd like to incerase connectivity to Asia through Europe.

I think they do (http://www.rackshack.net/english/virtuals.asp).

There are not many European companies mentioned. Anyone with servers in Germany? Surely there's a datacenter there? :)

Rackshack removed their virtual hosting packages sometime back to concentrate on dedicated servers instead. Not very long ago I believe.
