Re: Re: Link application from kari for zucchini.fl.us.blitzed.org

Hey there,

I agree that in the past Sago had a lot of problems. They were a budget 
datacenter, and operated that way. One of their largest problems came 
when they bought a company called UnitedColo, and shipped all their 
servers across the US, without anyone at United having told any of their 
customers. Those power/network connections that you mentioned were 
indeed a big problem.

However, when I went to find a place to colocate this server, I did a 
lot of reading about the few datacenters in the central florida area. 
What I found was that sometime around February/March of this year, Sago 
underwent a large shift. They changed their motive from providing a 
budget colo center, to providing a quality facility. Everything I read 
from current Sago customers indicated that they were now commited to 
having a stable, fast network.

Since starting with them, my experience has been the same. I've had a 
constant ssh connection to the server running top, and the only problem 
I've had was over a month ago, and was resolved in a matter of minutes.

I know in this industry that your reputation is almost everything, 
though I strongly feel that Sago is now commited to providing a great 
service. If they where still having all the problems that plagued them 
in the past, I absolutely would not have my server there.


Mark, I just used 500 as a default, and figured you all would know a 
better minimum. Raising this shouldn't be a problem.
