Server
Colocation prices depend on the physical size of the server (1U, 2U, 4U etc),
number of servers, bandwidth and support.
Some
reasons why you should use ammonet
Colocation
We
allow you to connect your servers to one another directly
or through one of our switches so that you do not pay for
traffic between your servers - backups, index transfers etc.
Riverhead
Guard+Detector technology is used for all key routers in the NOC,
thus making our network immune to DoS attacks. To our
knowledge, no other NOC in the web hosting sector has this level
of security.
IRC (Internet Relay Chat) software, with its potential for
huge bandwidth consumption, attacks etc., is not allowed on any
network in the NOC.
We do not allow non-staff members into the server housing.
Owners who physically visit the NOC work at consoles in a visitors'
area.
We offer two main colocation options:
Full Rack Colocation - if you have many servers to colocate, then this option will be the most appropriate and economical. Billed by
number of racks (regardless of
the number of servers in each) and bandwidth, 95th percentile, in 1 Mbps increments. This option is generally best for those with 8+ servers
or a few servers and at least 2 Mbps (500GB/m+) of sustained traffic.
Please contact us for
details at
Server Colocation - if you wish to colocate one or a few servers, this option is the most appropriate and economical for you. Billed by server number and size, plus traffic (GB/month), based on actual usage, in small increments. Best option for one or a few servers and under 500GB/m (2 Mbps) traffic
(bandwidth).
Please note that we also offer dedicated servers - this means that
you do not need to buy your own server. You rent a fully operational
server which we maintain. Contact us with your requirements.

Notes
Your
server will be located in a state of the art network operating centre in Washington,
DC, providing:
Server
rack or shelf space
Power
for server
100Mb/s
Fast Ethernet connection to a Cisco Catalyst 2924XL access switch
(note: your server must have a 100Mb/s NIC)
Fully
air conditioned facilities
Facility-wide
UPS & battery protection, and an emergency power generator
More
IPs, DNS, back-up, custom programming & installations, and other
services are available
No
bandwidth cap is imposed, unless so requested, - you are simply
billed for the traffic used (we don't make you pay for bandwidth
you don't use, nor do we impose any maximum speed limit on your
server)
100%
network uptime, sub-3ms latency, no packet loss guarantee.
Immediate
problem response and basic server monitoring (ping); 24x7x365 manned
facilities. Unless
instructed otherwise, we ping your server every 10 minutes. If
your server goes down, again unless instructed otherwise, we
reboot it. This service is included in the hosting fee.
We
also offer a complete range of support up to complete maintenance for Linux
servers. Contact us for pricing of the support combination of your
choice, including upgrading your OS, Apache, Tomcat and other
software, trouble-shooting your applications etc.
Companies
new to server ownership are sometimes at first reluctant to house their servers at locations
remote from their company premises. However, the price and connectivity
advantages completely outweigh any disadvantage in not having direct
physical access to your machine.
You can easily ship your server to
the facility in Washington DC by
courier, or, if you do not already have a server, we can assemble one to
your specifications for about the same price as Dell.
