Housing and colocation in Madrid for your servers
Host your equipment in a professional data centre in Madrid, with redundant power, multi-carrier connectivity and our team as your remote hands, with no need to travel.
What is housing (colocation)
Housing, also called colocation, means hosting your own servers and network equipment in a professional data centre. You provide the hardware; we provide the rack space, power, cooling, connectivity and physical security.
It is the ideal option if you already have equipment, need very specific hardware or want full control of your infrastructure without the investment and risks of building your own server room at the office.
Professional hosting for your servers
Rent anything from a single rack unit (1U) to half a rack, a full rack or a space with several cabinets. Your equipment will be in a Madrid data centre with Tier III design and ISO 27001 certification, built to run without interruption.
You can find out more about the data centre on our infrastructure page.
Remote hands in the data centre
We will be your hands in the data centre: send us your equipment and we install it for you, and we handle reboots, disk swaps and checks.
Private switch or network
We provide a dedicated switch or private network with the VLANs and interconnections you need between your devices.
Data centre in Spain
Spanish IP addressing, a multi-carrier network with BGP, low latency and ports from 1 Gbit to 10 Gbit.
Space for spare parts
Keep your spare parts next to your servers: if a part needs replacing, we do it very quickly.
Grow without limits
From 1U of space up to a space of 8 rack cabinets. You choose how far you want to go.
Data centre visits
If you want to visit the data centre, you are welcome: a Tier III-design facility in Madrid.
Space to suit you
Choose the space you need today and expand as you grow:
- From 1U
To host one or a few servers or a network device, paying only for the units you use.
- Half rack
A space with your own power circuits for a group of servers, storage and networking.
- Full rack
A whole cabinet for your infrastructure, with the power and connectivity you need.
- Several racks
For large deployments: from several cabinets up to a space of up to 8 racks.
How to bring your equipment
We are with you throughout the process:
- 1. Tell us what you need
How many rack units, the power consumption of your equipment and the connectivity you are looking for.
- 2. Get your proposal
We prepare a tailored offer with space, power, bandwidth and IP addresses.
- 3. Send or bring your equipment
You can bring it yourself or ship it to us and we install it in the rack, cabled and labelled.
- 4. Go live
We set up the network, IPs and, if you need it, your private switch or VLAN, and check that everything responds.
- 5. Always at hand
For any reboot, disk swap or check, our remote hands act for you without you having to travel.
Housing, dedicated server or VPS?
Three ways to have your own infrastructure in our data centre:
| Característica | Housing | Dedicated server | VPS |
|---|---|---|---|

| Upfront investment | Buying your equipment | None: you pay a fee | None: you pay a fee |
| Hardware failures | Covered by you (we help with remote hands) | We take care of them | We take care of them |
| Growing | Add equipment or space | We upgrade or replace the server | Add resources in minutes |
| Ideal for | Companies with their own equipment or special requirements | Large projects that need a whole machine | Most websites, shops and applications |

Colocation, cloud or servers in your office?
Three ways to run your infrastructure and how they differ:
| Característica | Colocation (housing) | Cloud or VPS | Servers in your office |
|---|---|---|---|
| Hardware | Yours | The provider's | Yours |
| Upfront investment | Your equipment | None | Equipment, room, UPS and cooling |
| Power, cooling and network | Professional and redundant | Included | Your office's |
| Physical security | ISO 27001 data center | Provider's data center | Your office's |
| Control | Full | Over the system, not the hardware | Full |
| Best for | Own equipment or specific hardware | Projects that want to pay per use | Very specific cases and local networks |
