What is Colocation?

Colocation facilities could be described as ‘internet’ data centres and are shared facilities managed by service providers

Data centre space is sold by individual rack/cabinet or cage (average: 5 - 50 cabinets)

Typical customers include hosting providers, ISPs, telcos, internet content, entertainment and social networking suppliers and mid market enterprise across vertical sectors

Most contracts are 3-5 years in length

Reasons for Using Colocation

Page 12: Infrastructure Hosting in the credit crisis

www.interxion.com

Colocation – More cost-effective

Expenditure moves from CapEx to OpEx budgets – important during a credit crunch due to lack of available capital

Investment moves from high costs upfront to predictable, fixed term subscription payments

Improved total cost of ownership, leading to enhanced return on investment, especially in complex environments where power intensive equipment is deployed e.g. enhanced security, reduced utility bills etc

Colocation – Increased resilience

Guaranteed levels of uptime under stringent Service Level Agreements – of growing importance due to increasing regulations around business continuity

Partnerships with multiple network carriers to ensure failover for time-critical, high latency applications

Colocation – Enhanced flexibility

Customers can be up-and-running quickly – building their own facilities takes between 12-24 months

Modular infrastructure/services, which can be provisioned and de-provisioned swiftly as required

Organisations can chose to selectively outsource elements of their IT infrastructure to handle short-term requirements for overflow capacity

Contracts generally last from between 1-3 years on average
