Is there such a thing as affordable colocation with 99.995% uptime?

Do affordable colocation and 99.995% uptime come in the same package?
Can you get 36 minutes of downtime or less per year for less than $20 per foot per month?

The answer is yes.  There are a few hardened data centers that offer facilities comparable to Uptime Institute standards, but that are less than $20 per foot per month.

Midwest colocation providers tend to offer lower prices than the coasts.  Whether you’re looking for primary data center space or a disaster recovery data center, make sure that the facility you choose is carrier neutral so you can have plenty of telecom choices?

Outsource data center power costs and pricing models vary greatly, but if you do your homework, you can find facilities that provide both high uptime and affordable colocation costs. If you’re looking for affordable colocation at reasonable prices, contact Lifeline Data Centers.
