Panix V-Colo Plan Features, Options, and Prices

NEW Now with 20% more RAM!    NEW!
Standard Features
All V-Colo packages come with these features:
  • Your choice of OS
  • One IP address
  • All disk storage is on Fiber-Channel hardware RAID 5, so:
    • single-disk failures won't kill your server
    • total server hardware failure can be recovered from in minutes, not hours
  • Nightly backup of your disk (free, as long as you don't disable it)
  • Reboot your server over the Internet using our console server
  • Console access via ssh to our console server
  • Guaranteed minimum CPU time - approximately 100MHz Pentium-equivalent per 80MB RAM (of course, you'll often have much more than that available, depending on what others are doing)


The plans below offer flexibility and economic pricing. If none of these suits, we can put together a Custom Package for you.



If you need help choosing a plan or deciding what features you need, please feel free to ask. You may also want to visit our fora, where Panix customers discuss the V-Colo service. And if you're a Panix Unix shell subscriber, try one of the panix local newsgroups.

Notes:

  1. With this plan, you can have a maximum of 3 IP addresses.
  2. You may choose a 10% subscription price discount or a 50% disk space bonus with your annual prepaid account.
  3. Rsync backups are free, and usually come pre-configured, but you can disable them if you choose. That's usually a bad idea, since we keep no other backups of your data, unless you pay for tape archiving.

Add-ons

All V-Colo packages can be customized with add-ons, which come in standard and bulk sizes. You can purchase any number of either size. All prices are per month. If you prepay for one year, you'll receive a 10% discount.

Standard Bulk
IP Addresses: $1/address $10/12 addresses
Disk Space: $2/GByte $8/5 GBytes
RAM: $5/64 MBytes $18/256 MBytes
Transfers: $.40/GByte $8/25 GBytes

DNS: $50/year per domain
Tape backup: 25% base price + 25% price of additional disk space

Custom packages

Please ask us about package deals on larger V-Colos.
Please ask us to price out a custom package for you. Colocate your own server with us. If you'd like, we'll even build the machine for you and do the initial install. Just ask us.


Operating Systems

You may choose any operating system distribution from the following list. It's small at the moment, but don't hesitate to ask us to add a new distribution to it. We will probably be able to accomodate most reasonable requests. And if you don't ask for what you want, we won't know there's a demand for it.

We also expect to add FreeBSD and Windows later this year.
