Why do I need colocation, can I just host my server at home or office?
Colocation is essential for those who already own a server but don’t have enough bandwidth to host it themselves. Most homes and offices have very limited bandwidth and servers chew up a lot in a short amount of time. DSL and Cable internet connections are also not the most reliable; they go up and down all the time due to problems outside your control. Cable connections are shared with your neighbors so when they’re all using the internet, your connection will slow to a crawl. With colocation, you do not have to worry about downtime or speed. Our network has one of the best uptime records of most hosts and our speeds are lightning fast. Home and office connections just don’t compare to what a real datacenter can provide. In addition to speed and uptime, our datacenter is limited to employees only; no client will ever enter the datacenter for any reason. This ensures a secure environment where you know no one will touch or steel your equipment.
