After the organization has evaluated potential vendors and determined a shortlist, an extra step in due diligence should be performed. Confirming vendor information and performing site visits to potential server room co-location facilities can help to validate decisions, and identify any issues with potential vendors.
This research note addresses the following when evaluating and visiting potential hosting locations:
- Economic and political factors.
- Physical attributes surrounding the server room.
- Internal facility checkpoints to consider.
Understand what to look for before and during a co-location site visit to ensure due diligence has been covered, and to help with the final selection of a co-location vendor.
