Spilsby Internet Solutions now has a presence at IFL in Manchester, UK.
Financially, the price rises at Telecity/Redbus were crippling the little guys in the hosting industry such as myself and I have been working on a get-out for the last 12 months; the solution came in the form of IFL - a datacenter which was providing much better pricing for both floorspace and power than Telecity/Redbus plus Manchester is a lot closer to Lincolnshire than London.
As two of my upstreams at IFL have direct fibre to Telecity/Redbus, there will be no noticeable difference to customers connecting to us over LINX and other London POPs.
I will be moving shared hosting customers from Telecity/Redbus over the next week or so to a nice big beefy box at IFL which should boost performance even further.
Interesting times ahead... |
