When running a server from a
"
co-located" environment you buy and
own the server hardware and take on responsibility for its
depreciation, paying a managment fee for any on-site maintenance.
This could cost your business more than anticipated compared to
a dedicated server but gives the flexibility to specify specific
hardware solutions to suit corporate policy.
Co-location is not limited to
web servers and
could include
application servers,
database servers,
firewalls and
voice over IP telephone systems.
We are able to look at your existing in-house systems and applications with
a view to offering professional advice on the options available
to you. We are able to
project manage the move of any existing
equipment to a
secure and resilient data centre or manage the
deployment and installation of new hardware.
We use a number of
specialist hosting companies that have tailored
services to suit a variety of different applications. We are able
to provision space for a single 2u server through to
entire 42u
racks with
resilient 32A power feeds backed up by
N+1 UPS and
generators.
We can also offer impartial advice on hardware selection and are
able to source equipment from all of the leading manufacturers
including:
Dell,
HP,
Fujitsu-Siemens,
Cisco and
Juniper.
