How Per U server colocation can help your business

Learn how SMBs benefit from 1u server hosting in Montreal for their IT needs.

What is 1U server colocation?

 

Traditionnally, companies had to build a server room the their offices and locally host their IT to serve their internal needs and their customers as well.

This way of hosting IT is costly, requires alot of maintenance and is poorly scalable. Therefore, large companies have started to rent power and space in colocation data centers. Colocation data centers allow companies of all sizes to benefit from the same quality of data centers (redundant power, cooling and internet access) than Fortune 500 companies.

Typically, companies will rent full private cabinets, but for SMBs or companies with clients all arround the world, it can be quite expensive to rend private cabinets. To solve this issue, SharedColo offers colocation at the server level. Clients can simply rent the space required for one or more servers and pay as they grow.
