      This is a 16 year old company so not new on the block by any means....

      They have 22 data centers in 8 Major citys. They have a major amount of people on their team both administrative, marketing and technical (believe me I have talked to MANY of them at this point). This is not a questionable company guys.

      Well, that's good to know 🙂
      Obviously, there's a lot more to it than we've seen publicly.

      Glad you have done research into them. 🙂

        After this road trip is done. You will be able to get to know at least a few of the Colocation America team as they will have an actual presence here on the community.

          I don't know, this sounds a lot like cloud at cost with more lipstick and perfume.
          Honestly, I see a spear phishing campaign and social engineering all bundled with very attractive pricing as extra bait.

          Take backups and give no passwords @Minion-Queen. I hope you have a sound exit strategy.

          I mean, I like fishing, but mostly with a rod and reel. 🙂

                Why the move from the East Coast & why was So. Cal. chosen for the lab?

                  That was the best Data Center location available to us, and after all who doesn't love a Road Trip?

                  I believe that this particular location is Colocation America's newest location. So we are pretty excited to be getting to visit it (ooo I need to see if I can get some pics while I am there).

                    Even Lab's need a vacation and what better place than sunny Los Angeles? 🙂

                      Going into the newest and highest end facility. It's one of the Tier IV facilities and it is near Colocation America's home office. Going for the highest end facility we can get 🙂 because that's how we roll.

                          Well, we HAVE a full cab. Over half is used on initial equipment delivery. We have plans for at least one large NAS to be added soon and possible one large Sparc server that we are interested in adding. There will be some empty space, but not a lot.
