How Rackspace Managed Colocation Works: Think traditional Colo but without having to deal with the hardware, network or data centre

How Managed Colocation (Platform Hosting) works is simple compared to colo or in-house solutions.Basically, you tell us what your business needs are and how you plan to grow. We work with you to design the initial configuration to your specs. But we don't stop there. We actually continue to plan your configuration as you grow. That way you don't have to face running out of space and having to manage urgent and expensive migrations.

Even the hardware vendor negotiations and purchasing are all taken care of by us. That way we get the best prices for you and own the hardware for you, cutting down your capital costs and making hardware depreciation and obsolescence our concern, not yours.

From there, we build your configuration, deploy it in our world-class data centres, get it on our Zero Downtime NetworkTM and immediately begin the around-the-clock management of your physical devices, the network and the data centre. And you can start remotely accessing and administering your environment immediately. You never have to see a data centre or server cabinet at 2am again. Whenever your infrastructure needs something, you just let your dedicated Colocation Hosting Support Team know. They're ready to help at a moment's notice.
