Colocation America- Ask Me Anything
-
I'd like to acknowledge the "Anything" part of the AMA.
Ask me literally any questions about anything, even if it isn't related to colo or data centers, and I'll do my best to answer it.
I'd rather fight 100 duck-sized horses than 1 horse-sized duck, for instance.

@ChrisL How much wood could a woodchuck chuck if a woodchuck could chuck wood, assuming that the wood is locally sourced and sustainably harvested in a cruelty free manner?
(apparently Opera browser thinks "sustainably" is not a word...)

Meeting everyone and getting to put faces to handles.
Least favorite part: being abruptly woken up at 3 a.m. with a camera in my face and a room full of people.

Depends on the amount of wood in the environment and whether sourcing said wood would affect local indigenous fawna and their habitats. But definitely enough to build a dam.

It could always be worse... It could have been a fire alarm! Oh... wait...

Are you guys already on (or looking to expand) to the East Coast and such? Other Countries on the road map yet?

We have facilities in NY/NJ/BOS/MIA and more. We'd love to expand into other countries, though.

Yes! We've been discussing opening up all of our colo plans to the majority of our facilities.

Yeah, it's a balance between what's coming in/out, space available, how to utilize said space, etc.
I've been a big fan of offering those lower U plans, but I'm of the "fill it up however you can" mindset and sometimes upper management disagrees.
