Premium Colocation Hosting from reliable UK Datacentres

What is Colocation?

Colocation, also known as colo, is a hosting solution that allows businesses to house their servers and IT infrastructure in a professional data centre facility. At VeloxServ, we provide premium state-of-the-art colocation services, offering businesses the opportunity to leverage our robust infrastructure and expertise to ensure the optimal performance and security of their critical systems. From single servers to full rack solutions, we’ve got you covered no matter how small or large your business is.

How Does Colocation Work?

Colocation works by providing businesses with physical space, power, cooling, and network connectivity within our data centre facilities.

Businesses can rent space in our cabinets or racks to house their servers and equipment, while we handle the facility management and infrastructure support. This allows businesses to focus on their core operations while enjoying the benefits of a secure and reliable hosting environment.

Why Would You Need Our Colocation Services?

Businesses may choose colocation services for various reasons, including the need for reliable and secure hosting infrastructure, the desire to offload the burden of managing a data centre facility, and the need for scalability and flexibility to accommodate growth. Colocation services offer businesses the opportunity to benefit from enterprise-grade infrastructure without the upfront costs and ongoing maintenance associated with building and managing their own data centre.
Advantages of Colocation

Cost-Effectiveness

By leveraging our colocation services, businesses can avoid the upfront costs and ongoing expenses associated with building and maintaining their own data centre facility, saving both time and money.

Understanding 1U, 2U, 3U, and 4U

1U

A 1U server takes up 1 rack unit of space in a cabinet or rack. It's a compact option ideal for small businesses or specific applications.

2U

A 2U server takes up 2 rack units of space and offers slightly more processing power and storage capacity than a 1U server.

3U

With 3 rack units of space, a 3U server provides even more power and storage capacity, making it suitable for medium-sized businesses or applications with higher demands.

4U

A 4U server takes up 4 rack units of space and offers the highest processing power and storage capacity among the options, making it suitable for large enterprises or resource-intensive applications.
