What is a hosted data center?

A hosted data center, also called a colocation facility, leases space to customers who bring their own servers. The customer owns and manages the hardware. The facility provides the secure building, power, cooling, and network connectivity. It is a common choice for businesses that want professional infrastructure without building and operating their own data center.

Many organizations still choose physical infrastructure over the cloud for control over their equipment and data, support for legacy applications, predictable performance, and direct access to their own hardware.

Why Ashburn is a popular data center location

• Internet traffic hub. Ashburn is widely known as a major point where internet traffic is exchanged, and its concentration of data centers is often called Data Center Alley.
• Loudoun County. The area sits along the Dulles Technology Corridor, close to Washington Dulles International Airport.
• Network ecosystem. A large number of providers and carriers in one area gives tenants more connectivity options.

What to look for in hosted data centers for lease in Ashburn

• Power capacity. Confirm how much power is available to your space and whether you can add more as you grow.
• Cooling and redundancy. Ask how the facility handles cooling, backup power, and maintenance.
• Connectivity. Check which carriers are in the building and whether you can connect to more than one.
• Security. Look at access controls, monitoring, and how visitors are handled.
• Expansion room. Make sure you can add racks or space in the same facility later.
• Lease terms. Compare term length, renewal options, and what is included in the monthly charge.

Frequently asked questions

What is the difference between colocation and a managed data center?

In colocation, you own and manage your servers and lease the space and infrastructure. In a managed arrangement, a third party also operates the equipment for you.

Why do businesses choose a physical data center instead of the cloud?

Common reasons are control over hardware and data, legacy applications, predictable performance, and the ability to configure equipment exactly as needed.

Can you help data center owners find tenants?

Yes. We market properties and represent owners in lease negotiations. Start by listing your property.
