Why would they need to buy bandwidth? Many places would offer you a gigabit pipe directly.

- leetrout 10mo agoSure, some places charge to upgrade. Some places are metered. 100Mbps is 33TB / mo. 1Gbps is 330 TB / mo. I'm curious what they have and how they prevent saturation from a client or they just pass on networks managed by the DC.
- leetrout 10mo agoReplying to myself since OP shared elsewhere they are using Tier. $950.00/month for 100TB @ 1Gbps 20A @ 208V 61 Usable IPv4 or free BGP And half rack is $650 / mo for 30TB @ 1Gbps (so basically the full month at 1/10th full pipe). https://www.tier.net/colocation https://www.tier.net/colocation
- re-thc 10mo ago> Many places would offer you a gigabit pipe directly. i.e. you don't have redundancy? A gigabit is nothing these days sadly. You can get a surge in traffic (DDoS or not) and be stuck quite quickly. You always need extra capacity to deal with issues unforeseen and that adds to the cost.
