Colocation hosting is the facility that houses your hardware and equipment in a secure environment
, designed to protect servers from fire, theft or vandalism. Storing your hardware in an office or warehouse leaves your equipment vulnerable to these everyday threats.
There are lots of advantages to a colocation programme that being stored at a secure location provides. You also have the advantage of a storage facility which is designed specifically for the servers, such as being fire-proof and maintained at the correct temperature through ventilation and air conditioning.
When you have a large business you can make good use of all the extra storage facilities enjoyed by colocation hosting. The servers are of the highest capacity and they are both fast and powerful. When you store all of your business servers in a colocation facility, they will all be connected to the facilitys networks, which will in all probability be faster and more powerful than the one you had in your office. This is due to the large amount of clients servers housed in the collocation facility, you will notice the difference immediately with your online operations and reap the benefits.
