Just curious why you are looking to Colo a server vs. a vm in AWS or Azure? Cloud is why it is so hard to find Colo these days.
I'll take a guess, but Daulton can elaborate. How about Spectre and the never-ending stream of lookalikes? I'd also throw in there the fact that many/most sec kernel bugs these days are kvm/virt related.
The market is still there. There's a reason RackSpace can charge $500+ month for bare-metal hosting.
Or why not just put it on a decent business internet service and put it under your desk?
With Wpg internet prices it looks like it's cheaper per month to colo with one of the providers Daulton listed!! Not to mention you'd get more 9's with most decent colo providers than your local shaw or mts line (even "business class"). _______________________________________________ Roundtable mailing list Roundtable@muug.ca https://muug.ca/mailman/listinfo/roundtable
I use SoYouStart in Montreal (part of OVH) They supply a dedicated server (xeons with 32GB) for $50 CDN a month. I run Proxmox and multiple vms on it.
I had a hard drive failure a few weeks ago, and it didnt take them long to fix it.
