What is Server Colocation?
Server colocation refers to the practice of renting space from a colocation center to house servers, network equipment, and other computing hardware. In other words, you only pay for the space you need and are responsible for hardware maintenance, updates, and ensuring that your server is configured correctly. Server colocation has become increasingly popular and is a great choice for big corporations, who prioritize security, want robust hosting infrastructure, and demand scalability.
for businesses looking to outsource their data management needs to a more robust and secure environment.
Why Colocation?
To have a colocation hosting arrangement with us, you should have your own server, rather than renting a server from us. You will be merely leasing our space and should transport your server to our datacenter. In a colocation hosting environment, you will only rent space within our datacenter and can maintain the ownership and control of all the software and hardware settings of your server. The advantage is that you can communicate with our team to easily downgrade or upgrade features like rackspace or internet bandwidth to suit the changing requirements of your business.
One of the main reasons why businesses go for colocation hosting is due to the security it offers. Another reason is the level of control that it offers when compared to technologies like cloud hosting. Colocation hosting can be the best option for industries like healthcare, as they have strict rules of compliance regarding data privacy and security that should be met for legal purposes. As per the rules of many industries, data should reside in secure onsite location and this can be ensured by colocation hosting, as the data is stored in our secure datacenter.
With our colocation hosting services, even small businesses can have enterprise-level hosting capabilities. Why wait? Get in touch with us right away to know more about our colocation hosting services.
What are the Benefits of Colocation Hosting?
Cost Savings
Instead of investing in a dedicated data center, businesses can save the expenses related to building, managing, and maintaining an in-house data center. Server colocation can lead to significant cost savings for businesses, especially those that are looking to expand their computing infrastructure as they only pay for the space and power they use.
Scalability
Using the services of a colocation center makes it very easy to accommodate additional equipment as businesses grow, ensuring they have enough space and resources to meet their needs.
Increased Uptime
As server colocation providers we offer multiple power sources, backup generators, and resilient network links to ensure maximum uptime. We also have on-site technicians available 24/7 to resolve any issues quickly and efficiently, minimizing downtime and ensuring businesses have access to their data whenever required.
Improved Security
We provide businesses with a more secure environment for their data, with a colocation centre employing strict access controls, surveillance systems, and other security measures to guard against unauthorized access, theft, and other cyber threats.
The Difference Between Dedicated Server Hosting and Colocation
Dedicated hosting is a hosting option in which you rent a server situated in a data center. This means that we provide you with the hardware, internet connectivity, and additional services, including managed maintenance, upgrades, and support.Â
The principal difference between Colocation and Dedicated Hosting is the level of control each offers. With colocation hosting, you need to handle most of the server maintenance, upgrades, and configuration, while the hosting company provides hardware such as space, power, cooling, and bandwidth.
However, with dedicated hosting, we manage most of these services and configurations, offering you less management tasks. Therefore, colocation provides greater control while dedicated hosting affords greater support.
