Physical and environmental obstacles
The company also specializes as custom Wholesale colocation data centre. They leverage their extensive experience to design and implement tailored network solutions in challenging locations beyond their existing fibre routes and buildings. This includes tasks like cabling through remote forests in Minnesota or deploying fibre to mountaintop cell towers in California. Their technicians, familiar with the local communities, are skilled at overcoming the physical and environmental obstacles of each region.
Offering single servers, cages, and racks
The current and the following passages discuss the differences between retail and wholesale colocation options provided by colocation data centres. Retail colocation involves leasing options for small businesses, offering single servers, cages, and racks. It is suitable for budget-conscious businesses. On the other hand, wholesale colocation is preferred by larger enterprises that require larger spaces, such as entire rooms or facilities.
Designing, building, and maintaining their internal resources
In wholesale colocation, power usage is metered, meaning the enterprise is responsible for paying for the energy consumed. Wholesale customers have autonomy over their infrastructure and are responsible for designing, building, and maintaining their internal resources. They may not require extensive network diversity.
Equipment maintenance and management
In contrast, retail colocation providers charge a flat fee and are suitable for small businesses with minimal space and power requirements. Power requirements can scale as the business grows. Retail colocation offers extensive carrier diversity, allowing businesses to connect with various networks, partners, and service providers. In retail colocation, the data centre staff manages the servers, whereas in wholesale colocation, the enterprise’s staff is responsible for equipment maintenance and management.
Hybrid solutions
The narration concludes by mentioning that hybrid solutions combining elements of both wholesale and retail colocation are emerging in the market, providing businesses with more options to suit their requirements and budgets.
