Aside from Fremont, what would you guys suggest to be the next best datacentre for the West Coast?


I went with Dallas since it's nearest to the west coast (and makes both coasts equally good/bad) and it's theplanet/softlayer which I have some good experience with (though everybody can have issues and that could change ...)

How is the Texas datacenter? Any issues this year? Is it reliable?

Texas datacenter has been fine for me so far. I will never host a node on Fremont again.

With the current state of Fremont, Linode does not have a west coast location to offer right now.

A lot of my traffic is west coast and I hope the Linode can offer something reliable there in the near future.

I wonder what the uptime for HE's own site - he.net - is. I think it's pretty low, considering that it's down again now...

so since the virtual was ok (physical machine was alive) but unreachable due to HE.net ( I consider down ) - I wonder if the SLA applies.

I think network connectivity is covered by the SLA.

For people not obsessively refreshing the WHT page:

HE is having an issue network wide right now. We're seeing all kinds of routing issues outside their DC.

It's not just the FMT facility. This is having a severe impact in Phoenix as well.


Oh ... got four pings through. But now gone again ...

It seems like fremont outages are now a regular monthly occurrence. Maybe they should consider closing their fremont facility as the outages seem to be getting more common rather than better. Like many others before me, I'm going to have to migrate to dallas I think as the next best latency from australia.

sigh.

Linode... best product... worst DC.... Fremont is toxic.... the sooner management understands this the better.

From reading posts abroad about this incident... this may well have been avoided if HE maintained its core routers, or used Routers that could withstand this type of attack..

When you stack up the power outages, and now this... it comes back to HE's failure to maintain their infrastructure.

I'm moving all my Linodes to Dallas as soon as HE is back up. Does anyone know what Linode or HE offers in compensation for the downtime?

HE seems to be back up but lagging quite a bit, wouldn't want to try to clone a node until Fremont is "stable" again.
