With a number of alternatives available for hosting services, it becomes imperative to know which one is the best that entirely suits your business requirement while keeping budget in mind. Colocation and cloud are two extremely popular budget friendly options that offer a bunch of benefits, but each is best suited to satisfy different business scenarios. Prior to enter into either of hosting agreement, it is well off you investigate the driving factors. Colocation Colocation services is typically a practice in which data centers rent out their physical space for businesses to house their servers and other computing hardware. Businesses, instead of keeping their servers in-house, in offices or at private data centers, “co-locate” at third-party colo centers; where colo centers provide cooling systems, power-supply, IP address, bandwidth, and physical security along with physical space in terms of ‘racks’ and ‘cabinets’. You may prefer colocation for a number of reasons, such as – No CAPEX and less OPEX, higher level of data bandwidth, lower network latency and higher security, power backup services, 247 – technical support, more control and many more. Cloud Hosting* The basic difference of cloud hosting from colocation is that in cloud computing data storing, processing and accessing can be performed via the Internet rather than your computer hard disk. In this model of hosting, your cloud service provider manages your entire hardware and network infrastructure, including troubleshooting and issue resolution. By opting cloud services you eliminate CAPEX and reduce OPEX. The key benefit with cloud computing is ability to outsource and flexibility to scale up or down based on the business needs. But security is the biggest concern with the cloud computing. Bottom line While both the services offer a host of benefits, it becomes important for the businesses to analyze every pros and cons attached to both the services, and their business requirement as well.
