I guess inventing new math to break crypto has some physics problems. -lee On Tue, Oct 8, 2013 at 3:28 PM, Lodewijk andré de la porte <l@odewijk.nl> wrote:

That datacenter has been open 8 days and already a crisis. I find it hard to believe they can compare themselves against facilities like Equinix. Especially if the NSA needs more than 10Mega Watts of power all to themselves. :) “Building C7 in Utah provides our customers with data center designs and operational mantras that address many concerns the IT buyer has today; such as low disaster risk, abundant low latency connectivity options, future proofing power and cooling, and a footprint they can grow in — all at a lower cost. C7 in Utah offers a cost-effective alternative to the Las Vegas, Phoenix, and Denver markets and is well on par with data centers from Equinix (EQIX), CyrusOne (CONE), and Digital Realty Trust (DRT). The customer experience is our focus, and our designs to provide uninterruptible power and cooling are paramount.” http://www.c7dc.com/company/newsroom/c7-data-centers-launches-new-95000-foot... -- -- -Christopher Olesch *"Affordable IT Services for Non-Profit & Small Business"* || http://www.ngotechnology.org/ || http://www.linkedin.com/in/chrisoleschjr *Masonic Affiliations:* || http://www.scottishritechicago.org || http://www.supremecouncil.org/ || http://www.ilmason.org/ *Online Artistic Portfolio* || http://cjolesch.deviantart.com/ On Tue, Oct 8, 2013 at 3:39 PM, Lee Azzarello <lee@guardianproject.info>wrote:

Due diligence for datacenters is hard. Power and network claims are easy to make on paper. It's easy to just pay for equinix or supernap, but how do you prove you can actually handle their reqs when competitive bidding doesn't involve setting up a proof of concept install and load test? Much less prove QoS or response time or other things that you can't possibly compare on paper. Though I imagine the fort's ability to vet SLAs in contracts and enforce those clauses is way beyond most legal entities. On 2013-10-09, at 05:57, Chris Olesch <g13005@gmail.com> wrote:
