mgcarley, in which datacenter r u going host the site, i am looking for a good India based hosting provider for a long time, znet has some, but costly
Initially we will be distributing our equipment around the city, as we are having our facility custom-built and I think it will be in Parel.
We will be working with one provider, E2E networks, who has servers already in Delhi, but will be moving their equipment to be with ours.
Hosting in India is currently more expensive than US hosting, whichever way you look at it, so I guess it depends on what kind of site you have and how busy it is... smaller sites I would recommend the US still, but for sites requiring at least a
VPS we would probably work out something between E2E and you
E2E Networks
^ Doesn't Reliance also have DCs?
Reliance has facilities in Vashi, Bharti has them in I think Jogeshwari or something and
Tata has them in Bandra Kurla and Prabhadevi - and all 3 have facilities in the northern suburbs of Mumbai. These are the ones that *I* have visited at least - they may have others
😀
The thing with R/T/B is that they only work with "listed" clients - in other words, enterprise customers - you'd have to find someone who re-sells hosting out of those facilities, but as mentioned, I don't think there are too many, as the costs can't compete with US-based hosting (yet).
