Colocation Benefits

In today’s world most companies have some type of web presence. Whether your company has a website that you currently host in-house or your entire business model deals with e-commerce, colocation has tremendous benefits.

Colocation Delivers More Reliable Uptime

Dallas Data Center provides redundant services to guarantee truly reliable uptime. In our colocation facility, all environmental components are redundant, so if any component fails, your server and network equipment won’t even notice because there are redundant systems in place that automatically take over.  These systems include HVAC, UPS (uninterruptible power systems), generators, external utility power, core network routers, four separate internet providers with redundant backbones and extra capacity, and 24x7 onsite network operating center.

Better Network Speed and Reliability using BGP/HSRP

Dallas Data Center has redundant internet networks and different internet backbones delivered into our facility.  We have gone to great lengths to provide a fast and always reliable internet network through our multiple Tier 1 providers. Delivering this kind of redundancy and availability of internet networks within our facility provides more reliable internet bandwidth than what is available or feasible at a single office location. Our self–healing redundant paths protect against fiber cuts and backbone router outages.

Significantly Lower Setup and Monthly Cost for Services

Space for a server and committed internet bandwidth in a truly redundant environment can cost as little as $150 (1U/1MB committed/110V) at Dallas Data Center. If you set up the same internet bandwidth and redundancy at a single office location it would cost hundreds of dollars more per month for the recurring charges.The initial set-up fees for services and extra equipment such as battery back-ups should also be factored in. Below is a detailed estimate of what this might cost on a monthly recurring basis.

Office network monthly costs:

  • Redundant T1 connections »» $400/month
  • 24x7 NOC support »» $20,000/month (5 people working 40hr shifts (just to have one available 24x7) multiplied by $4,000/month each = $20,000/month).
  • Electricity to run servers and cool cubes »» $100
  • In addition to the man-hour portion, the power, cooling, and bandwidth are all less cost-effective, thereby clearly demonstrating the savings you can realize with colocation at Dallas Data Center.

Network and Server Specialists

Your OS will be supported by our network and server technicians whom are industry trained and possess years of experience.  Our 24x7 staff is here to ensure that you always have connectivity to your equipment.

Expand Your Possibilities and Business Opportunities with Colocation

Dallas Data Center delivers unlimited internet services that would not otherwise be cost effective or possible without the high internet bandwidth options we provide. Colocation allows your business to grow to the level of which it’s capable.
