Colocation vs Cloud: Weighing up the enterprise options

The record level of demand seen for colocation space in the UK during the course of 2017 is all part of the on-going push by enterprises to downsize their private datacentres, and outsource more of their IT requirements to a third-party.

Some might argue that if organisations are happy to move their IT infrastructure to a colocation provider, they may as well embark on a wholesale move to the cloud. However, the fact remains there are still many enterprise workloads out that that just aren’t a good fit for public cloud environments yet, and colocation is seen as a happy compromise.

In this e-guide, we’ll share case studies from companies who have gone down the colocation route, and take a look at some of the latest developments to affect this part of the wider datacentre market.
