Colocation, often referred to as server housing, is an innovative solution that allows you to place your server hardware within our advanced data center parks. This service is not just about finding a new home for your servers; it's about connecting them to a lifeline of existing, superior infrastructure. By choosing colocation, you're opting for an environment where your hardware is nurtured with an uninterruptible power supply (UPS), precision air conditioning, blazing-fast and redundantly designed internet connections, top-tier security measures, DDoS protection, and 24/7 on-site customer support.
Our data centers, strategically located in United States, Spain, Germany and Finland, offer unparalleled geo-redundancy, enhancing the reliability and performance of your digital assets. This is an essential service for anyone from private users with high demands for their personal projects, to small and large businesses seeking to minimize costs without compromising on quality. Colocation allows your IT department to breathe easier, freeing up valuable resources so you can focus more on what you do best: driving your core business forward.
In a nutshell, colocation is the perfect ally for anyone looking to leverage the power of a state-of-the-art data center without the exorbitant cost of building one. Whether you're a startup aiming to hit the ground running, a growing business looking to scale efficiently, or a large enterprise aiming to optimize your IT strategy, colocation offers the flexibility, security, and connectivity to meet your needs.
At the heart of our commitment to you is the promise of uncompromised access to your equipment. As our valued customer, you're granted exclusive, round-the-clock access to your rack, facilitated by a personal transponder. This ensures that, no matter the hour or the urgency, your digital infrastructure is always within reach.
For those instances when a first-time visit is in order or when you need to authorize access for an external technician, our seamless process comes into play. Through our user-friendly administration interface, Hub Console, you can effortlessly schedule appointments and manage access permissions. Upon doing so, a secure, generated password will be provided for use in authenticating with our on-site personnel. This initiates a smooth handoff, granting your designated visitor a transponder to navigate through our key-controlled, interlocking security doors, leading straight to your rack.
Every visit is meticulously logged, and footage is archived within the Hub Console, allowing for detailed inspection and review. This blend of advanced security measures and streamlined access ensures that managing your server space is not just about security, but also about convenience, flexibility, and peace of mind.
Whether you're coordinating a critical maintenance operation or simply checking in, our access protocols are designed to support your needs efficiently and securely, keeping you connected to what matters most.

When it comes to electricity costs, transparency and fairness are our guiding principles. We calculate these costs based on your actual consumption, ensuring you only pay for what you use. Here's a straightforward example to illustrate how this works:
Let's say you have a server that consistently uses 200 watts of power. Here's how we break down the costs:
— The server's power usage is 0.2 kW.
— Multiply this by the hours in a day (24) and then by the days in a month (30).
— Finally, we apply our electricity price (for instance, 40 cents or 22 cents per kWh).
The formula looks like: 0,2 KW * 24h * 30 days * electricity price
.
Based on this formula, the monthly cost for running a server with a constant usage of 200 watts would be approximately € 57.60.
This method allows us to align your costs directly with your usage, making it easier for you to manage and predict your expenses.
It's part of our commitment to providing you with clear, scalable solutions that grow with your needs.
