When it comes to the matter of control over your infrastructure, there is a good debate between Dedicated Hosting and Colocation Hosting. A simple comparison here will give you an idea of how Colocation has some benefits over having a Dedicated server in managing IT infrastructure.
You may already know that under the colocation service you have to purchase your own hardware and software, set it up at the colocation center, configure it and maintain it on a regular basis. You can also, however, rent/lease space to rack your own servers and only pay for space, power, internet and air conditioning.
Following are some of the benefits of Colocation hosting
- If you already own set of hardware when it comes to added advantage as you do not have to purchase
- You have complete control over your hardware and machine
- You have complete authority to install hardware or software of your choice
- Additional flexibility to manage your hardware
- Complete security because only you will have access to your cabinets
Yes, under Colocation hosting, you will be required to do more work since you will be responsible to manage your machines on your own. You will need a dedicated team of skilled hands at your end all the time who can monitor your server and perform maintenance from time to time. Every time there is a hardware failure or upgrade required in the system, someone from your end has to visit the Colocation center and perform the activity. It can also be expensive in the initial phase as you will have to buy hardware, software, setup a team of skilled resources.
