How to Choose a UK Colocation Location

The best colocation location is not automatically the closest or largest facility. It should fit the organisation’s network design, operational needs and risk plan.

Consider network reach

Assess carriers, internet access, cross-connect options and routes to users, offices, cloud services and other facilities. Latency requirements vary by application.

Plan physical access and support

Decide how often staff will visit, what access controls apply and whether remote-hands support is required. Travel time matters during planned work and incidents.

Balance resilience and geography

Organisations may use more than one facility to reduce shared risks. Exascale provides data-centre options in Wolverhampton and Telford, plus Telehouse North and West in London.
