Requirement for reliability, security, and scalability of infrastructure to drive the growth of data center colocation market
Retail Colocation
Retail colocation providers rent smaller spaces in large facilities with the options of placing IT equipment within racks and rows. These providers facilitate the distribution and management of physical power, space, cooling, cabling, and support services to small and medium-sized businesses. Moreover, they also provide the management software that integrates power, cooling, and IT rooms for further facilitating the easy management of data centers. Security measures such as employee vetting, solid walled cages, and registering and tracking of visitor movements are usually present in retail colocation facilities. Retail colocation data center space is offered on the basis of individual racks/cabinets or cages ranging from 500 to 10,000 square feet in size. Retail colocation offers greater flexibility in terms of IT infrastructure scalability and therefore is preferred by enterprises with small to medium IT requirements. Retail colocation facilities are provided by leading vendors including Equinix, China Telecom, NTT Communicationss, AT&T, and Internap.
Wholesale Colocation
Wholesale colocation providers rent the entire constructed colocation facility to customers. They usually serve large enterprises and rent out data center space that ranges between 10,000 to 20,000 square feet or larger. Wholesale colocation provides large spaces along with the power and cooling infrastructure. Enterprises are responsible for bearing the costs associated with the capacity, power, internal staff, and network connectivity. Wholesale colocation users benefit from economies of scale as wholesale colocation services provide reduced power and cooling costs compared to retail colocation. Wholesale colocation also offers higher bandwidth, mitigation of service interruptions, strategic colocation location, and reduced total cost of ownership. Wholesale colocation services are adopted by customers who require autonomy, complete control over the infrastructure, and have their own resources who are responsible for allocation of equipment and space. Companies such as Global Switch, DuPont Fabros Technology, and Digital Realty Trust provide wholesale colocation services.
