Web Hosting Stuff

Hey,

I have a 'business' cable line with 14 static IP's. I use this to run game servers, my personal IRC for friends, and tertiary failover and backup for a lot of my personal sites. This includes all of my personal dns and email. I also host file and database only tertiary backups at the house for all the business sites (no client data). I do not host any clients data of any form from my home. Other then my friends, who have asked to have space on my cluster;

The cluster is three machines running with openvz sitting on a backers rack with networking gear and a pdu and other random stuff like backup batteries and all I bought off ebay and from retail over the years. One of the machines acts full time as the media file server for the household, the other two serve my personal sites and run the backups and such. I zip tied a monitor onto the side of the baker rack along with a keyboard and put other assorted randomness on the rack... (I have pics.. :p) My electric bill doesn't go over $150 in the winter and (sometimes) $350 in the summer (usually around $225 in the summer). Central cooling for the house in the summer is a pain! If you have everything in one room and you have four or more machines in that room I would suggest getting a little hvac unit for them, You will save money in the summer using a little hvac unit instead of the big house one. There are other computers in the house but they go off and on as they are being used.


Now, I know I'm new here and I don't want to sound like I am bragging.. My point is that if you have the money, the space, the patience, the drive, the want, the need, to have a bunch of equipment all churning away in a corner total tech cave like go right on ahead. It's a great learning experience and I hope you get a lot of joy and a lot more knowledge out of it.

Also, I would not put cram a bunch of machines in a closet unless the closet was big enough to walk (not squeeze) around on all sides of the rack and had proper cooling and ventilation.

Well, I'm signing off on this post, Thanks for reading. :-)
