Re: [asterisk-biz] Colocated Asterisk Server

Fine for web / database services, but probably not so good for telephony applications (unless you're serving a predominantly US-based customer base).

Not to mention the access "issues" if you're over this side of the pond ;-)

Most full racks in the well-connected datacentres in the UK generally offer 8 or 16A included in your rental charge. Anything above that is usually charged extra, and the "overuse" charges are not inconsiderable. Bear in mind if you want to fully load that rack with 1U boxes and each server's using 0.9A, even a 16A allocation is woefully insufficient.
