Would you recommend they pay several times more just so that its hosted locally?
I never, would infact, i would advocate you get tax incentives for hosting locally. But am not sure KRA would take this kindly. :).
I've been looking for a reliable hosting provider whose servers are right here in town and who wont bankrupt me, only safaricom has made the cut with their 5k p/a offer.
Try by asking on this list there are a number of people who host locally that can assist you. But they are not Safaricom or anyone as big and known.
Other than co-location (and the headaches it brings), what other options do they have?
They could build their own. By the way the infrastructure to host opengovt in todays setup is hardly to 2 x 42U cabinet racks fully redundant. What we dont have is the skillset to maintain it. But hey because you cant drive do you use a taxi for the rest of your life? Regards, Michuki.
