Colocation is the practice of renting space for your servers and other computing hardware at a third-party provider’s data facility. In fact, Ace Host, Tampa colocation data center, is where you can rent a space for your servers.
Instead of the in-house scenario where servers live within a room or section of business infrastructure, there is an option to “co-locate.” So, colocation is renting space to put equipment in a third-party data center.
