Co-Location Design and Implementation

As your colocation partner, we work as an extension of your own team within a virtual extension of your own datacentre facility. 

ARO’s colocation design & implementation service is built on strong foundations of trust and experience. We deliver secure, flexible access to our fully accredited UK datacentre facilities, supported by specialist teams with unmatched experience in migrating and managing critical applications in regulated environments. 

Location matters

For data and applications too complex or critical to risk migrating to the cloud, ARO offers a proven service for design and implementation of co-location facilities as part of our UK-based datacentre service portfolio.

The datacentre is the nerve centre of the modern enterprise – where knowledge, networks, processes and workloads converge.

But operating a secure, full-featured and fully compliant data centre requires constant maintenance, expert compliance management and significant investment – not least in initial construction costs. If the business grows or evolves, the data centre must do so too. All of which creates risk as well as significant and frequently unpredictable costs.

De-risking growth

We offer complete datacentre design and implementation or limited off-site provisioning for specific regulatory or business requirements, such as disaster recovery, data replication or archiving. 

We continuously invest in our assets, technologies and people to ensure our colocation service is optimised for efficiency, performance, stability, security and compliance with unique features, including:

  • On-shore infrastructure. Our facilities are located and accredited in the UK to ensure data sovereignty and compliance.
  • Proven methodology. We apply a proven agile delivery process to migrate business systems infrastructure to our secure facilities.
  • Maximum compliance. Our network infrastructure design and implementation are NHSD-audited with direct connectivity to the Health and Social Care Network.
  • Accelerated time to value. New services can be connected quickly to the main UK Network Hubs, including assets for disaster recovery design and implementation and mechanisms for access to multiple upstream network providers. 

ARO has the experience, infrastructure and proven methodologies to safely migrate and efficiently manage your most critical applications and data – however complex or regulated your operating environment.”
