What is Colocation Hosting.

Collocation Hosting (Colo) is the practice of housing private servers and networking equipment in a Data Center of a third company. In other words, the respective client/companies, instead of keeping their Servers in-house (in offices or generaly in a private space) can choose to "place" their equipment by renting space in a Collocation Center. Therefore, unlike other types of hosting, where customers can rent some space on a Server owned by a hosting provider, with Collocation Hosting the customer already owns the server and leases the required physical space to host it within a Data Center specially built for this purpose.


How does Collocation Hosting work and what does it provide to the customer?

A Collocation Hosting provider will rent space in a Data Center in which customers can install their equipment, but will also provide the power for the Servers (electricity), connection bandwidth (network), the IP address, the cooling systems, etc. that the customer will need to successfully deploy his Server. Additionally, colocation service providers are providing much tighter levels of security, including security guards and even biometric access control. Resilience is another key feature, with data centers providing backups and UPS devices to protect against outages, including those caused by natural disasters, fires or floods
