Searching for a colocation using Pangnote

Many organizations or users are facing with the need to place their equipment in a remote data center. The choice of such data center is a particularly important task, because you are not only choosing the site with the Internet, power supply and technical support. You are choosing a provider who you can trust your equipment. Obviously, this choice should be approached more than seriously.

On the platform Pangnote you will find a comparative table with offers of colocation from data centers from plenty locations. Data collected in the table can be manually sorted by specifying the most important characteristics for you (for example the region).

Our team and the data centers themselves collected data about the most important parameters that are taken into account when choosing colocation. The price parameters include not only the cost of the service itself, but also the cost of 1 kW-hr in the DC, the cost of running a local technician maintenance for your equipment. Separately, we consider whether there is a free IP-KVM and IP-address or what is the cost of these additional services.

The next group of parameters is related with physical access to the equipment. If you decide to place the equipment geographically close to you, then it is important to have the possibility of access to the DC for monitoring and personal service. It is also worth considering the terms of services and technical support provided by the provider.

In the last group we unified the parameters of connectivity provided in DC. In addition to the cost and bandwidth of the Internet channel, we place information about endpoit providers presented in the data center. As a separate parameter, we highlighted the availability of BGP peering of your own ASN.

The Pangnote platform collects for you the basic parameters about the provided colocation service, using which you can choose which provider to send the inquiry. By the way, you can do it using your Pangnote account!
