Trusted Managed Colocation Server hosting Services Provider

Co-location is the placement of a computer or network equipment in an external data center. Management of the computer or network equipment remains the responsibility of the owner of the computer or the equipment. An Internet Service Provider (ISP) generally provides access to the computer or the equipment. Reliability and performance of the network is the ISP's responsibility.

Colocation and managed services are two distinct types of services, but they can be combined to create a managed colocation service.

The main reason for co-location is to achieve 'peace of mind'. Below you will find more information about ASPGulf Data Centers and Locations to help illustrate how Colocation can create an optimal environment for the operation of your solution.

Computers and network equipment are located in racks housed in data centers which are guarded buildings manned 24 hours a day. The racks themselves are locked and only 'allowed' personnel are given access. When you choose Colocation as the IT solution for your business, you retain the management responsibility you want for the ongoing operations of your Web site or network. Complete control over your hardware and applications - either remotely or on-site. You know what is taking place on your site every minute of every day. And you can make changes to your applications as necessary.

The cost of installing a single high bandwidth line is far higher than the costs of locating a server in a Data Center.

The network to a Data Center contains 'redundant routes'; this means that a computer or piece of network equipment has more than one link to the Internet. Should a single link be broken access to the computer or network equipment remains intact. Due to the high cost of installing a high bandwidth line typically equipment or a computer housed at the premises of an organization has only a single link and should this link fail for whatever reason connection to the Internet is lost.

All racks have power redundancy, should there be fluctuations in power supply the computer or equipment remains functioning. Our responsibility is to manage the data center and network infrastructure. We ensure server and network integrity by providing an uninterruptible power supply, along with reliable and redundant network connections.

A managed colocation service provides businesses with the benefits of a secure, reliable data center, while also offloading the burden of managing and maintaining the IT infrastructure. This can free up IT staff to focus on more strategic initiatives and help the business achieve greater operational efficiency.
