COLOCATION

A HOSTING PRODUCT FOR EVERY LEVEL

We provide your access to power circuits, burstable network connections and a secure location. Our multiple levels of redundancy ensures exceptional uptime within our data center.


Shared Colocation Racks
For our clients with requiring less rackspace, we offer our shared colo-rack plans. With our shared colo-racks, your equipment is placed in a rack that is shared with other clients who also only require 1 & 2 Us of space. Our clients in these racks still have full access to their machines, however, this access is support-staff accompanied to ensure the security of other clients' equipment in the rack. We do recommend our clients in the shared co-lo rack schedule an appointment with our support staff to ensure someone is available for the accompaniment, however, if an emergency was to occur our support staff is available.


Our $59/month shared colo-rack plan includes:

  • Space for a 1U server
  • 1 access connection to a shared 120V 20 Amp power circuit
  • 2 IP Addresses
  • 1 Burstable Network Connection with a monthly bandwidth commitment of 1 Mbps

Experienced support team

Our 24/7/365 support team is dedicated to managing your hosting environment. Each of our support team members have spent a number of years in the industry, including many members with 25+ years of experience supporting hosting providers. Their experience has provided them the opportunity to gain knowledge in range of configurations and hosting solutions. Their knowledge is beneficial to our clients as they can help create custom solutions for your unique configuration and hosting needs.


High quality equipment

Ensuring your solutions retain their uptime requires high quality equipment. We work with a number of hardware vendors to provide clients with high quality, new hardware. In the rare event the hardware was to experience a failure, inventory is kept onsite to ensure replacement is readily available to get your services back online as quickly as possible.


We build reliability

Controlling our own network, purchasing high quality equipment, and employing experienced support team members are only a few examples of how we have built reliability into our systems. We understand if your web services are down, your business is down.

Redundancy, redundancy, redundancy...

Redundancy is the key to maintaining uptime. We strive to ensure there is no single point of failure among any system within our network. In almost all instances, we even have a backup to our backup. We understand there is always a risk for failure, but we also understand if you take precautions and build redundancy into your systems the risk for failure is greatly diminished.
