The big issue with state (or State) choice is governing laws. My entity
can't do business with data centers in Texas or California because their
state laws conflict with our state laws in some way that makes our
in-house counsel twitchy. No, I can't elaborate, it just came as an edict.
Both for personal use, and for my work, the next state north of us has
good data centers that don't make us twitchy. When you live on a
peninsula that screams "HIT ME!" to every passing hurricane, it's nice
to have your DR site 5 hours inland, and 900 feet higher. >8^)

Does it *have* to be North Carolina? Cheaper colocation had be had

I find the EU is cheaper than the US for hosting.

I've heard good things about my local, Asheville, data center.

ERC is more about serious, Internet 2, bandwidth, but also offers some
colocation services in Asheville.

There, I do know the people and they Know their networking stuff and can
deliver 10Gbps in the area. Now, if only I could afford That level of
bandwidth.

From that map you can see that Compass Data Centers has a
certified Tier 3 DC in Raleigh-Durham.

Does anyone have any Tier 3 or better data centers for
co-location
(cage, dozen cabinets) that they'd endorse in North
Carolina? Prefer
carrier neutral.
Not asking for research on my behalf but first hand
accounts would be
welcome!
Thanks,
