Competitive Advantages Are my servers public or private (do they have private IPs/VLANs)? How do my servers talk to each other (Public Addresses, Subnet privacy or full VLAN)? Can I connect to my servers privately (VPN or MPLS)? Will I receive my own Private Firewall or Firewall Context? Are my server resources guaranteed or best effort? Is bandwidth / backup included? Are my servers High-availability? Meaning that if the bare metal fails, it will pick up on another server? Is my data on a fault tolerant SAN or on-board disk? What is the speed of my disk? SATA, SAS (FibreChannel)? Is backup included? What type of retention schedule do you support? Do you have open file management agents?
