Colocation for SaaS Providers

Optimal Environment for High-Performance Software-as-a-Service Platforms

SPEAK WITH AN EXPERT
OVERVIEW

Build Your SaaS Platform on a Strong Foundation

As a Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) provider, your infrastructure is the foundation of your service. While many SaaS companies rely on a combination of public and private clouds, SaaS leaders also leverage the benefits of data center colocation – low latency, reliability, scalability and cost-efficiency – and direct cloud connections.

CoreSite provides an IT nexus where a diverse ecosystem of partners including top cloud providers, service integrators, networks and enterprises accelerate business initiatives.
