On many of the public colo houses earnings calls, they told
analysts that they are trying to keep contracts to one year
so they can raise prices year over year, that power pricing is
fluid and many facilities are being expanded both space and
environmental, that most locations really are full or being held
down by lack of cooling for existing dense rack space. Basically
get ready to hold out your wallet.

Is it that?

Or, is it some of these companies no realising that charging $250 for a 20 amp outlet is less than their cost, even three years ago?
