Server Locations

[FrederickGeek8]

In the next year the place where my server is currently located is being sold, as well as my "backup" location. I was wondering if there was any company/service that would just really provide as a giant server closet. Is there such a thing? And I mean a physical place to store my server, not a website hosting service.

When you say "store my server", are you trying to imply that you have your own server built already?
Because it would just be easier to look for a dedicated host like http://www.singlehop.com/ .

I have a already assembled server and everything. Its been running forever, but I need somewhere else to run the server from.

That's quite a challenge...
You may have to just self-host or put it in a warehouse.

I believe it's known as colocation https://www.google.co.uk/search?hl=en&q=colocation

I think I might just buy a VPS. Know any good ones?

I've always used x10VPS (link) because it's connected to my standard shared hosting.
They are a good company, I've never had any noticeable downtime.

Plus there support team fixes things quite quickly

I'll check that out! I've also been looking at Rackspace and Dreamhost.

I just recently switched over to Amazon EC2. They have a free VPS tier that offers more than what you would normally pay for a $15/month VPS
