Dedicated vs Co-location/DIY:

For a company thinking about going down the co-location or DIY route, there are many hidden costs to take into consideration which means that it is not as cheap as you think. Instead, dedicated or managed hosting carries many advantages and removes many of the headaches usually associated with hosting.

Capital Expenditure Problem

At first impression, the co-location option can seem like a stable long-term solution. However, the costs associated with buying all the necessary equipment, up-front, can quickly compromise a company's budgeted capital expenditure which can impact on their financial stability. In addition, in today's ultra competitive business environment, pressure on Return on Investment (ROI) can distract the company away from the needs of its day to day operations.

Network & Risk

Companies who choose co-location or DIY will have to recreate network infrastructure which can also be very expensive. Co-location's up-front costs means a lot of risk. By tying up funds into hardware, re-creating the network, hardware depreciation and failure, as well as hiring staff to man it all, companies commit significant resources into just one area of their business. This subjects the business to risk - of not being flexible enough to react to change and deploy resources into other areas, should circumstances demand it.

Maintenance & Uptime

Many co-locaters and DIY'ers are faced with the ongoing maintenance and uptime issues of running their own equipment. Often the ongoing maintenance and uptime management costs are not budgeted for, nor are they catered in future planning, which leads to crisis-management or reactive funding based on critical failures and downtime.
