Colocation is renting physical space within a data centre to host servers and IT infrastructure. A colocation facility or data centre, like ours, consists of a physical space with the necessary equipment for optimal server and networking operations.
You bring the hardware and we provide the space, power, cooling, bandwidth, physical security, and dedicated, round-the-clock monitoring.
BlackBox Hosting offers colocation services that eliminate the hassle and cost of building your server room while ensuring the best connectivity, disaster resilience, and compliance with the necessary regulations.
BlackBox Hosting offers more than a space to park your server. We become your infrastructure partner, assisting your business’ needs with our service-first approach.

Reliable Backup Systems: DRaaS and BaaS for complete peace of mind.
Some businesses are content running their operations on public clouds, while many others need or want to have their private IT infrastructure. When the choice lies between running your in-house, private data centre vs using colocation, which one is best for you?
Here are eight attractive features of colocation hosting for your business.
Data centres have cutting-edge IT infrastructure that supports optimal performance. These include redundant power systems, backup generators, advanced cooling systems, fire suppression systems, and physical security measures, including access control, surveillance cameras, and 24/7 monitoring.
Colocation data centre providers prioritise uninterrupted power by maximising redundant power feeds, uninterruptible power supply (UPS) and backup generators.
As your business grows, colocation data centres support your scaling needs. You can expand your infrastructure within the colocation data facility by adding more rack space or upgrading to bigger colocation hosting options, still avoiding the cost and hassle of building or renovating an in-house data centre.
Most London hosting centres have reliable, high-speed internet connectivity with multiple network carriers. Your servers and networking equipment benefit from high-speed connections with nearly zero latency.
Security is another top priority for colocation providers in the UK. To safeguard sensitive data and protect against unauthorised access or physical threats, UK colocation providers install advanced security systems with features such as surveillance cameras, biometric access controls, locked cabinets, and restricted entry.
With accessible colocation in the UK, you can rule out the need to invest heavily in building and maintaining an in-house data centre. Your organisation can benefit from shared infrastructure and operational costs, which are distributed among multiple businesses. This cost-sharing model makes co-location a more affordable option, allowing you to redirect your in-house data centre investment to other aspects of your business.
You’ll receive professional hands-on support from colocation service providers for all kinds of tasks, from server reboots to equipment replacement. This assistance should help you lower downtime and run your IT infrastructure smoothly without being physically present.
Organisations are susceptible to disruptions that affect the continuity of operations. Colocation hosting centres make the most of geographically diverse locations, with the strategic placement of power systems and backup mechanisms. This framework makes London data centres like BlackBox Hosting a dependable colocation data centre for disaster recovery and business continuity planning.
If you want to retain ownership and control over your servers without the high costs of building and maintaining them, all while ensuring maximum uptime and superlative performance, BlackBox Hosting’s colocation services are for you.
