In the rapidly evolving world of technology, organizations are increasingly recognizing the benefits of colocating their mission-critical IT equipment in third party data centers.

Companies are choosing colocation to acquire extra capacity and scale for growth without the expense of building a new data center.

Colocation also provides the flexibility to rapidly deploy business applications.

Additionally, companies are increasingly concerned about business continuity and recovering quickly from outages. Colocating mission critical IT infrastructure provides disaster recovery, redundancy, data back-up and storage, and geographical distribution of IT infrastructure.

Key benefits to be realized by using a shared data center infrastructure include:

  • Improved facilities cost management and investment control
  • Improved cash flow management by shifting Capital Expenditures to Operating Expense
  • Access to state-of-the-art facilities and security for mission critical IT systems
  • Rapid deployment, increased flexibility and scalability
