What are the benefits of server colocation?
• Uninterruptible power provided by redundant power feeds, UPS battery backup and backup generator power. • Multiple internet connections eliminate dependence on a single internet connection, provide faster connections when used with intelligent routing and provide burstable bandwidth. • Regulated climate control which maintains temperature and humidity providing an optimal environment for your server hardware. The overall benefit of having your server colocated in a datacenter is maximum uptime. Server uptime is increased when a datacenter has redundant power feeds, multiple internet connections and AC/humidity controlled environments. In addition to redundant power feeds the data center should have a generator or generators and battery backup UPS system which will prevent the loss of power in the event both power feeds are lost. Having multiple internet connections is called “multi-homed”, “multi-homing” or “multi-home”. A multi-homed data connection increases uptime by eliminating t
