Digital Realty questions

Where does Digital Realty offer colocation?

In our 25 tracked metros, Digital Realty has facilities in 16: Houston, New York, Ashburn, Chicago, Los Angeles, Silicon Valley, Atlanta, Dallas, Phoenix, Charlotte, Hillsboro, Austin, Miami, Seattle, Boston, Toronto.

How do I compare Digital Realty with other providers?

Put Digital Realty in the same bid as the facilities around it. Every bid lands on one 36-month cost: rent, power model, cross-connects, escalators and SLA credit caps, so a low headline rate can't hide the rest.

Can I renew with Digital Realty at a better price?

Often, if the alternatives are real. Upload the renewal notice and we'll get competing bids before your notice deadline; the incumbent can match them or you can move. Renewal counter-quotes.

Make Digital Realty compete

Send your spec or your Digital Realty renewal notice. Digital Realty and the facilities around it bid blind on the same 36-month basis.

  • Blind until you pick: facilities never see your name, email, company or files.
  • Every bid on one basis: rent, power model, cross-connects, escalators and SLA credit caps.
  • You sign direct with the facility. Participating providers pay our desk a placement commission when a buyer we introduce signs. It never changes their price or how we rank them.

Blind colocation counter-quotes

At least three facilities bid against your spec. Reply within one business day.

PDF, PNG, JPG or WebP. Redact your company name and IP blocks if you like: we need power, space, cross-connects, price and dates.

Single point of contact. Providers bid blind: they see the technical spec only, never your name, email, phone or company, and never a file you upload. We introduce you only to the provider you pick.
