Hey,
Why do people require so much bandwidth with their servers and at such a little cost taking in account bandwidth pricing at the moment?
Example, bandwidth based upon actual usage as known as "Data Transfer" the norm on the lower end market (providers such as Rackshack) offer 400GB as standard with the majority of their servers. All for just $99 + TAX per month. Why does everyone expect such when the bandwidth providers are classed as "tier-1" and non-oversold. Example: 300GB InterNAP for $99 with a server. Working that on actual usage and full usage it would work out to around 1+ Mbit based on 95% as an estimate. InterNAP bandwidth is around $300 per MBIT based upon just 1Mbit commitment directly in the US.
Anyone have any input or any other views on the topic?
