Colocation vs. providing your own connection
There are several major advantages to colocating your server in our data
center compared to purchasing dedicated connectivity for the same purpose:
 |
Price: Save the cost of building an
environmentally controlled, secure facility to house your server. This
includes connectivity, router/switching hardware, monitoring systems, and support personnel. |
 |
Time: Your server can be up and running
on the Internet in a matter of hours instead of days or weeks. |
 |
Expertise: Support of production
environment takes skilled, experienced professionals used to working with
mission critical equipment. |
Connecting your server is easy
We make it easy for colocation customers to get their servers up and running.
Here are the basic steps to get connected:
|
1. |
You ship us your server |
|
2. |
We place in on our high speed network, assign IP
addresses and set up DNS for you. |
|
3. |
You are up and running! All you need is a
remote management application like PC Anywhere, VNC, or Windows Terminal
Services to manage your system. |
We accept both rack mount and tower/desktop servers for colocation, providing
you with a maximum of hardware options. Servers should be no more than 4U
in height or larger than a standard desktop or tower computer. Larger
servers can be colocated for an extra cost.
