Dedicated Servers vs. Bare Metal: What’s the Difference?
In infrastructure, two terms appear everywhere yet remain widely misunderstood: Dedicated Server and Bare Metal Server. To some, they mean the same thing.

Problems with Standard Colocation – Why Space and Power Aren’t Enough Anymore
Data center colocation used to be a simple deal.

Why You Should Build Your Infrastructure in an Amsterdam Data Center
In Europe’s digital map, there’s a single point where everything converges. It’s the place where fiber from London, Frankfurt, and the Nordics meets transatlantic cables from the U.S. and Asia.
