Web Hosting Support and India

Posted On Wednesday, August 6th, 2008 By Ravi

There seemed to be a big booming industry for web hosting support in India about a year ago, but now it seems that it is hopeless, because of several reasons. People from India having to manage servers in the US face a 300 ms latency, which is quite a lot when you want to get a big work done. At times this latency goes up due to a network congestion, and this could mean hours of delay in the larger scale. And people in India dont have the skill to get things done effeciently, and all that they are fit for is something like in a BPO or a call center job. You will find that all employees are let very loose thru the employment screening processes everywhere. Handing a server to an irresponsible guy would prove to be hopeless, and it is always better to take support from the datacentre itself if possible.
