Okay first of all, seriously no offence but rather than colocating in India and then depending for support or remote hands on the typical support of those DCs inhere, I had rather continue how we are working. We are already having full racks in many locations outside and happy with it.
This is fine - everybody's scenario is different. If you're looking to have your servers in India, then they should be in a data centre, not at the end of some FTTH line, that's all.
The reason we want a few servers in India are for a
VPN, local backup and central servers to control all servers aswell as host our CRM Panel.
Fair enough - how much do you think you really need, considering your broadband is likely to be far slower than 100mbit/s?
What is STM ? Sorry but didnt get what it meant.
Also, I am in Delhi NCR so fortunately can go anywhere Delhi or UP (Near Noida Delhi Borders)
STM is a unit of measurement for bandwidth, it equates to 155mbit/s.
Also, I read nowhere on BSNL site that there are any separate FTTH plans for buisness or commercial use or anywhere in TOC restricting such use ? You sure it wont be allowed as its not on such a large scale in india.
I would be very surprised if it was allowed. BSNL is not very transparent in it's T&C but generally speaking a plan intended for broadband use will not be allowed to have servers sitting on the end of it - at least, anything other than private servers (which yours would not be, judging by what you're saying here). This doesn't apply just to India.
E2E networks, I cannot be sure about their word on 100Mbps network. Most service people in India say same but by the end of the day 2, you get to know its just a 10Mbps port and the support keeps replying "Its a shared 100Mbps port and thats what you get from it"
Even the top DC of India CtrlS cannot guarantee you network saying you get dedicated 10Mbps which can burst till 3Gbps if bandwidth is available at that time.
So you are having almost 1k servers in your DC and still expect free BW out of a 3Gbps line/network ?
Ctrl-S is quite a bit smaller than at least 3 other companies I know, but I see your point. What you are saying, however, is true of any DC, anywhere in the world. Do you honestly think the 1Gbit/s is dedicated in your European data centre?
The rate quoted by any ISP or HSP is a burst rate, but the DC *should* have sufficient bandwidth that this is achievable much of the time.
As far as E2E is concerned, I've met Tarun a few times and he is buying at least a few hundred megabits of bandwidth - I just did 2 simple tests (wget) now and got around 50mbit/s from a 2 servers in Mumbai to a
VPS in Delhi, so "up to 100mbit/s" does ring true, but it's not quite as bad as you might think - from that same VPS I can usually obtain 50mbit/s to my home connection in Mumbai so for the average website this is sufficient.
Of course, I might say differently if I wanted to run something a little more intensive like a video streaming service, in which case I'd be looking to purchase at least a
gigabit to start with anyway, however, even for your needs, considering the speed of your broadband connection even a shared 100mbit/s port might be OK, but I don't know enough about your specific situation to be sure.
Well, you know any private ISP or way to have optic fiber or eth line of 10-30Mbps least ? Unmetered preferred
As I've already mentioned, speak to
Tata, Tulip or Spectranet in Delhi. Or Bharti if you get desperate. Or Reliance if you get really desperate.
