As the economy continues to prompt businesses to explore new and innovative ways to reduce costs, many are discovering the benefits of co-location. Recognizing the growing need for co-location services, Shelly and David Rounds recently launched Co-location Las Vegas, a new division of uptimeLV that offers real solutions for downsizing businesses.

While small companies may not have considered co-location as a viable option in the past, they face the same issues as larger corporations and still require business continuity for critical data. Co-Location Las Vegas was created to meet the needs of small to medium-sized businesses by specializing in "best practice" co-location for less than a full rack, or 42 units. In order to provide the best products and services available, Co-Location Las Vegas has formed strategic alliances with national hardware and software manufacturers, including Microsoft, Cisco, Dell, IBM, Hewlett Packard, Citrix, Symantec, and VERITAS.

By partnering with Switch Communications LLC, a highly secure and state-of-the-art co-location center, Co-Location Las Vegas provides its clients with comprehensive services at a fraction of the cost. Services include redundant power, proprietary climate control and multiple sources for telecom and Internet.  Co-location also provides a host of advantages to maintaining an individual data center, such as advanced security, and scalable Internet connectivity.

The cost of co-location is generally very affordable and depends on the specific needs of the business. Co-Location Las Vegas works with clients to determine the number of units to be placed in the racks, the amount of Internet bandwidth needed, and the extent of IT management required for the relocation. Clients may use their own staff for ongoing IT support or elect to have uptimeLV provide necessary IT services and maintenance.

Co-Location Las Vegas is dedicated to providing a highly secure and cost-effective method for companies to protect vital data and equipment. To learn how Co-Location Las Vegas can benefit your business, visit www.colocationlasvegas.com
