What is Data Center as a Service?

Data Center as a Service is an IT service model where data centers provide their physical facilities and infrastructure for lease or rent to clients. The clients access the provider’s servers, hardware, bandwidth, storage, network infrastructure, and other resources remotely across a geo-distributed WAN network.

How Does DCaaS Model Work?

The DCaaS model lets organizations leverage all the benefits of accessing full data center capabilities on demand, without having to physically visit the facility. The DCaaS providers offer different service packages organizations can choose and scale on demand, with minimal effort. This helps them lower their IT costs while taking advantage of a modern, secure, and always-on infrastructure.

Data Center as a Service vs Colocation

DCaaS takes the traditional colocation service to a new level, offering more than just power, bandwidth, network, and physical space for organizations to migrate their existing infrastructure to. It offers fully managed services with flexible resource provisioning meeting the requirements of growing businesses. This helps organizations reduce their overhead costs while boosting scalability, reliability, and security of their IT environment.
