Colocation means housing your organization's servers and networking equipment in a professionally managed data center facility. You own the hardware. Infinity Data Center provides everything else: the building, power, cooling, network connectivity, physical security, and on-site engineering staff. For businesses that need enterprise-grade infrastructure for their own equipment — without the cost and complexity of operating their own data center — colocation is the right model.
Most of our colocation customers come to us for a reason beyond rack space: a secondary site for disaster recovery, an off-site home for backups, geographic distance from their primary office, or room to grow without building out a server room. Infinity Data Center serves regional businesses, healthcare organizations, financial services firms, and enterprise clients that need dedicated, professionally managed infrastructure outside the major metro markets.
What Colocation Means
In a colocation arrangement, your organization delivers your servers, storage systems, and networking equipment to Infinity Data Center's Knoxville facility. Our team installs the equipment in your allocated rack space. From that point, your hardware runs in our facility, connected to our power and network infrastructure and watched by our engineering team.
You retain full ownership and administrative control of your hardware and software. Most customers manage their equipment remotely through console and IPMI access, remote power control, and our remote hands team. For physical tasks — hardware upgrades, disk replacements, cable changes — you can request remote hands from our on-site staff, or arrange an on-site visit with our team.
The Infinity Data Center Facility
Infinity Data Center is located in Hardin Valley, Knoxville, Tennessee — about 15 minutes from downtown Knoxville and 20 minutes from Oak Ridge. East Tennessee sits well inland, with no hurricane or coastal storm-surge exposure, which makes Knoxville a practical location for secondary hosting and disaster recovery. The facility is owned and operated by Webservio, meaning the engineering team that manages your colocation is the same team that answers your support calls. There is no third-party facility management layer between you and the people responsible for your equipment.
The facility has been in continuous operation for well over a decade, with ongoing infrastructure upgrades managed by Webservio's engineering team. Facility tours are available by appointment.
Power Infrastructure
Infinity Data Center protects critical load with N+1 UPS battery backup and automatic transfer to an on-site diesel generator for extended utility outages. Cooling is N+1 precision data center air conditioning — not commercial HVAC. Power is planned in watts: tell us each device's draw and we size your allocation to fit. GPUs, dense storage, and other high-draw equipment are welcome; let us know ahead so we plan power and cooling for them.
Network: Multiple Carriers, Automatic Failover
Infinity Data Center's network connects to multiple independent fiber providers, with automatic failover between carriers: if one carrier's circuit becomes unavailable, traffic continues over the others with no manual intervention. A single ISP outage does not take your colocated equipment offline.
Bandwidth included in every plan is month-to-month. When you need a dedicated circuit from a specific carrier, we use our carrier partnerships to negotiate the rate and term on your behalf, and bring-your-own-carrier cross-connects are available. Read more in our Multihome Internet Connections article.
Physical Security
Physical security at Infinity Data Center uses access control, video surveillance, and access logging. Only our staff and pre-authorized customer personnel enter the data center floor, by arrangement. Access events are logged with user identity attribution — not shared keys — and access for your staff is set up as part of your agreement and can be revoked immediately if required.
Colocation Plans & Pricing
Infinity Data Center offers colocation plans built around what your deployment needs most:
- Throughput Plan — For deployments that need bandwidth. Every footprint includes IPv4 addresses, and additional addresses are priced per address.
- Density Plan — For multi-server deployments and hosting clusters that need more IP addresses on every footprint, including address blocks on larger footprints.
- Single Server Colocation — For one or two servers that need a safe, reliable facility, from 1U up.
- Rack and Multi-Cabinet Colocation — Full racks, several cabinets, or dedicated space for larger deployments, with multi-cabinet specials priced up front.
- Datacenter Space Exchange — A capacity partnership for professional datacenter operators seeking geographic redundancy, offered as part of our disaster recovery planning.
Current plan pricing and specials are published on the Infinity Data Center colocation pricing pages, and we can quote custom configurations for your rack space, power, and bandwidth requirements.
Remote Hands & Managed Services
Remote hands service allows you to request physical tasks at your colocated equipment without traveling to the facility — power cycling a server, swapping a drive, connecting a cable, inserting media. Webservio's on-site engineering team performs these tasks on request. We offer both managed and unmanaged colocation: for clients who want monitoring, patching, OS administration, and incident response on top of colocation, our managed services cover the stack from the rack up. Many customers also pair colocation with Proxmox backup and email continuity as part of a broader disaster recovery plan.
