Why Do I Need a Colocation Provider? [4 FAQs]
A colocation provider is a data facility that allows small businesses to outsource their servers and hardware to a secure environment. Within this environment, small businesses have the option to rent out single server spaces, racks, cabinets, and custom-built suites that best fit their requirements. Providers are responsible for supplying the servers with optimal cooling levels, bandwidth, power, and 24/7 security to ensure they're always connected.
