Datacentre hosting is experiencing a renaissance as firms once more look for help in running the increasingly complex technical nerve-centres of their operations. This time around, however, the hosts offer a more mature prospect and a broader set of services to a broader set of customers than was originally the case.
Even though the hosting model was at first confronted by issues ranging from reliability, legal liability, supplier viability and fears of loss of control, the sector today is much more mature and more firms are content to use third-party facilities for an increasing range of purposes.
Datacentre hosts now not only offer the traditional strength of shared infrastructure yielding low-cost operations and minimal up-front cost. They are also increasingly being used as part of hybrid IT strategies to provide business continuity, backup and fail over for an internal datacentre, for specific services, or as adjuncts to core business operations.
Read this white paper to see how hosting offers an efficient way to mirror data and ensure that business can continue in the event of an outage at the primary corporate datacentre.
