Fixed or variable - racks, suites and power
The facility and costs of an in-house data centre are largely fixed. Most costs are incurred regardless of how much or how little of the data centre is being used. A carrier neutral colocation data centre provides flexibility to expand or contract at will. You only incur costs for the facilities you actually use.
Grow or contract as you choose
You can grow or contract at will as your needs dictate:
- You can add or subtract racks, space or power allocation as you choose
- You have no need to make long-term commitments for data centre power or space you may never need
- You can expand or contract linearly – no need to build or close down facilities in big lumps
- You can increase, decrease or change your carrier neutral internet and communications carriers at will.
In control with colocation
Colocating gives you flexibility for data centre growth or contraction on demand, as and when you need it. You can configure your dedicated server or telecoms installation to your needs and grow or contract with ease as your needs change. Your hosted installation will always be exactly what you need, no more, no less.
If things go better than expected, you can expand fast and meet the need for new services and equipment. If they don’t, you can contract fast and stabilise the situation. An independent carrier neutral colocation data centre offers you ultimate flexibility.
