Most likely Verio does not have their own location in New Orleans. In most
cities, Verio just co-locates with someone else. If the building power goes
out, or some #$!%ing contstruction workers spray insulation into the ducts
causing the AC to shutdown, or the moron on the rack next to you trips and
falls on top of your server, or someone forgot to fill the generators with
gasoline...there are so many variables...
It's usually not Verio's fault is what I'm trying to say ;-) I dont know
anyone at Verio, or care, I do know that they do their best though. We are
colocated next to them down here, and they are crazy redundant for no
reason.
They have 2 redundant Cisco 7500's with redundant backbones for 2 stinking
managed Sun RAQ's, with a ton of batteries to backup the generators...
