Hi All,
A theoretical question: is it still possible to host a physical server in Winnipeg somewhere? What would be the range of the hosting price per 1U, if there are no large traffic needs to it?
Googling brought me https://www.datacentermap.com/canada/winnipeg/fiber-back-up-canada.html which lists a price from 2015, $190/U. Is it a right range or things became much cheaper since? I am interested in the order of magnitude of the prices.
Thank you very much in advance!
Definitely. Off the top of my head, you've got * Bell MTS Datacenters <-- https://www.bellmtsdatacentres.com/ * GSC <-- no online presence to speak of, weird. I can't even find their sole webpage right now. - found these: https://www.exg.ca/it-consulting & https://support.globalservercenter.ca/ * Les.net <-- https://les.net/data-center-co-location/ & https://portal.les.net/products/product_colo.php
There are a handful of smaller operations around the city that will host your box, but they tend to be an entire tier down from there, and not necessarily any cheaper. -Adam
