San Francisco Colocation
ColoServe is your best choice for San Francisco colocation because we are a division of ServePath, a true 24/7 hosting operation with over 2000 business customers worldwide. Our Screaming-Fast Network™ features multi-homed bandwidth with connections to over 40 networks, all ready to go in a single connection to your equipment.
ColoServe’s world-class San Francisco data center was originally built by Worldcom (MCI). As part of San Franciso’s largest and fastest growing ISP, we are also able to deliver many San Francisco colocation services not available from most data centers, such as dedicated server hosting, managed security services, Email filtering, shared Network Attached Storage, and disaster recovery.
Rock-Solid Finances
ColoServe is a division of ServePath, which was founded in January 2001 and has no investors and no equipment leases or debt. The company is 100% employee owned and operated. We are profitable and have been cash flow positive for each of the past two years. These days, financial infrastructure is a bigger risk to service reliability than facilities infrastructure. All of the bankruptcies of the last few years prove that debt load has been more disruptive than power failures, with many of the largest names in San Francisco colocation closing facilities or changing hands with little advance notice.
Screaming-Fast Network™
ColoServe operates its own Screaming-Fast Network™, featuring multi-homed bandwidth with connections to over 40 networks. We route traffic over major Tier 1 Internet backbones such as UUNet, Level 3, NTT/Verio, AboveNet and PAIX, with no low-quality bandwidth and plenty of network capacity for maximum reliability and scalability.
Our network also peers with 37+ networks at Switch and Data’s PAIX (Peering And Internet eXchange) in Palo Alto, including Yahoo, Microsoft, Cogent/PSInet, Akamai, UltraDNS, CENIC/CalREN2 (University of California system and Stanford), and Japan Telecom. PAIX is the largest Internet Exchange point in the world, where major Telecom carriers, Internet providers, and content networks exchange Internet traffic.
World-Class Facilities
All of our company employee-owners work on the data center raised floor. Great service requires us to be as close as possible to our customers, so we built our offices right on the raised floor in a portion of our new 20,000 square foot data center. With more than a third of our hosting customers outside of the US, we are a true 24/7/365 operation, with System Administrators on-site at all times.
Our San Francisco data center was by originally built by MCI/WorldCom so we now share generators, power, cooling, and fire suppression infrastructure with MCI. Because local phone service (and therefore 911 service) is routed through the building, it is considered an “essential” facility, with dual 2 Megawatt generators and 20,000 gallons of diesel on site, plus other infrastructure improvements to support the critical operations of the building. With all of the seemingly compelling virtual data center tours and claims from the Web sites of many ISPs, we invite you to come take a look at our facility in person.
