A data center is a robust building with a computer room, or a set of computer rooms, that allows you to house and manage servers, networks and other IT equipment in a controlled environment. It guarantees power, temperature, and humidity stability with optimum levels of redundancy.
Whether or not information technology (IT) is your core business, your enterprise will have IT needs and building your own data center is an expensive and capital intensive proposition, in terms of money, time and deployment of resources. Besides the high capital costs, there are potentially high operating and maintenance expenses. The high costs of electricity that run the overhead, routine maintenance on critical systems, adding new services, upgrading to the latest technologies and licenses, among other things, are in many cases not feasible for most companies.
Fortunately, there are now options out there for companies to basically lease space from, and "colocate" their IT equipment at, professionally-managed and secured, state-of-the-art data centers. Some of the benefits are the following:
Scalability: In many cases, scalability, if an option, is a limited one for in-house operations;
Better utilization of your existing work space;
Reduced CAPEX and OPEX;
Reduced bandwidth costs;
Strong Service Level Agreements;
Know-how: The data center operator's experience is to manage data centers, ensuring 24x7 uptime and providing adequate preventive maintenance to the critical systems.
These data center providers offer data center colocation and managed data center services where companies can pay for from just the physical data center colocation to complete management of their equipment through data center services. Companies like Globalweb Outsourcing (globalweb-us.com) can help you focus on your core competencies while they focus on their core competency -- data centers.
