Databank has an extensive U.S. presence w/70 data centers in 30 markets. They deliver a full suite of colocation and hybrid IT Cloud Solutions. Their Cloud connectivity is via Megaport. They can accommodate high density racks at certain facilities. I think their flexibility in allowing spend portability is important to any client with an intent to evolve their overall strategy as they consider future requirements and business approaches. Excellent SLAs are at their core campuses as they own & control everything (i.e., land, building, software and tools). They also offer Metal, Implementation & Migration Options, plus various Pro Services.

Data Centers / Colocation

Any customer with a physical IT environment (server closet, server room, on-site/private data center, colocation with another data center provider).

DataBank's Universal Data Hall Design ensures we are well equipped to accommodate a wide range of needs, including high performance computing (HPC). The base design incorporates slab flooring with perimeter cooling, which is ideal for large hyperscale deployments. For high-density locations, technologies like rear door heat exchangers or direct-to-chip cooling can be provisioned with minimal effort. If clients require a more traditional enterprise deployment, DataBank can easily add raised flooring to accommodate varying cabinet sizes, layouts, and other options. This universal approach provides the agility our clients require today, and well into the future.

DataBank's Cloud is designed for customers with an existing IT department that want to move away from owning the hardware, and for customers who are ready to move to the Cloud, but need more control than what a fully managed solution provides.

Our self-managed cloud solutions are specifically designed and engineered for customers that want to maintain control and management of their systems but don’t want to continue to invest in and maintain expensive and complex hardware. Self managed cloud facilitates agility allowing customers to leverage Databank cloud and storage resources without the traditional overhead and lead times needed to procure, install and operate a large-scale cloud platform. Databank can quickly provision resources connected to existing customer environments, then expand instantaneously and almost infinitely as needed given organizations access to cloud, network, and storage resources necessary for any workload.

DataBank's Managed Cloud is specifically designed for the customer who wants to eliminate the need to purchase, maintain and manage their own IT hardware, Windows and Linux operating systems, and licensing. With our Managed Cloud solution, DataBank provides all the necessary compute, network, storage, and OS management resources. This frees up your customer's IT resources to focus on the tasks and applications that support their business.

U.S. Federal government agencies, contractors that work with the federal government, and contractors that aspire to land federal government contracts all need to be FedRAMP compliant. But the benefits of FedRAMP compliance are not limited to just federal government agencies and their contractors. Organizations that need to meet standards for other federal compliance programs including FIPS 140-2, DoD SRG, ITAR, CJIS, DFARS, IRS-1075 Encryption Standards, and more, can benefit from a FedRAMP cloud. State and local government agencies can also benefit from FedRAMP compliance enablemen

DataBank is the only one-stop shop that provides compliant cloud and colocation solutions backed by our network of 68+ data centers, providing 3,000,000 square feet of data center space, in 28 metros, throughout the U.S. Our continued 20% YOY growth for the last 20 years, has enabled us to provide our services to over 5,000 companies.
