Any Verizon datacenter techs about?
by John Musbach 29 Jun '15

29 Jun '15

Hello, I'm a techie that recently moved to South Jersey for a tech job. To my astonishment, I discovered that there appears to be a Verizon datacenter near my house that has colocation: http://imgur.com/a/PdGno It's in Somers Point, NJ. While I could not find an address on the building, it is on the corner of Bethel Rd and N New Rd. I've tried walking around back to see if I could talk to anyone about colocation but could not find anyone outside. I've also tried calling Verizon but support wasn't very helpful. My question is, what does it take to get some colocation space inside of that building? Me and my roommate both have a 1u we'd like to rack and having it racked in a datacenter walking distance from where we live would be awesome. What we'd need: 2u space 4 power drops for the servers (2 psu per server) 2 100Mbps ethernet drops with static IPs I'm not sure if that's too little to ask for colocation or not, but that really is all we'd need. Is there anyone about that knows what we'd need to acquire such space, cost, badging, etc? If so, can you please reply offlist? Thanks, John M

Data Center Network Monitoring with TAPs
by Mitch Howards 29 Jun '15

29 Jun '15

Hello All, Was wondering what folks are using to monitor traffic on their networks. Looking into Ixia and APCON devices for dedup and other filtering features as well as passive fiber TAPs to capture the traffic. How are folks handling TAP'ing large data center networks? TAPs at the "distribution layer" would be the best fit for my network but that would require a ton of passive fiber TAPs for the incoming fibers to the distribution switches. The end goal is to not only capture the north-south traffic on the network but also east-west traffic. It seems more efficient to just use SPANs but there are many limitations using SPANs. Thanks in advance for any suggestions. Mitch

Hello there, Does anybody recommend a CDN to work beside GGC and AKAMAI? and if you have a real life deployment, do you have any figures about how much this recommended CDN save from the Internet BW? (currently both of GGC and AKAMAI saves about 40% of our Internet BW) Thanks, Ramy

The university that fired me for being too old some years ago had three Token Rings--one of them Thicknet. And scads and wads of IPX-speaking machines. That HAS been 10 years ago, so maybe..... -- sed quis custodiet ipsos custodes? (Juvenal)
