We are having a hard time finding dedicated 10gbs servers with ECC RAM. If folks out there have recommendations for datacenters that have 10gbs servers with ECC RAM, I'd love to hear them, so I can add them to my (unfortunately short) list.

Because literally any control structure in the entire system that is not hash-verified is now a critical failure point.
