<br>
I have no idea how economical they are.<br>
<br>
If rolling your own, I would imagine prices would vary dramatically depending on whether you're in the city of Atlanta $$$, Buckhead $$$, Alpharetta $$, Norcross $$, Cumming $, etc.<br>
<br>
It would probably also depend on how much data infrastructure you need and how much equipment (and power) each developer needs.<br>
