Introduction to the service

Colocation is a service where you place your own server equipment in our data center. You fully own the hardware and choose its configuration, while we provide the physical infrastructure — rack space, power, cooling, network connectivity, and 24/7 physical security.

The service is hosted in the Equinix data center in Sofia — a certified Tier 3+ facility trusted by companies like Google, Amazon, Facebook, and Microsoft.

Key Features of the Service

  • Tier 3+ data center — certified to ISO 9001:2015, ISO 27001:2013, and ISO 50001
  • 100% availability guarantee — four independent power sources backed up by UPS and five diesel generators
  • Network connectivity — three independent internet providers, direct links to ~99.99% of Bulgarian peers and major European Internet Exchange points
  • Flexible space — 1U, 2U, 3U, 4U, half-rack, or full rack
  • Network speeds — from 100 Mbps to 10 Gbps
  • Cooling — N+1 redundant climate control with Cold Aisle Containment and capacity up to 12 kW per rack
  • Physical security — multi-zone access control, video surveillance, armed guards, and a fire detection system with dual-trigger mechanism (thermal and smoke)
  • Optional 24/7 support — management and administration by qualified system administrators and DevOps engineers

Purpose of the Documentation

This documentation is designed to help you understand the Colocation service from Delta.bg. It covers:

  • General overview of the service, its advantages, and the data center infrastructure
  • Hardware requirements — what machines can be colocated
  • Ordering process — the inquiry flow, required information, and timelines
  • Remote access — options for pre-installing an OS and IPMI access
  • Terms and definitions — a glossary of technical concepts
  • Frequently asked questions and answers

Who Is This For?

The service is suitable for:

  • Companies with specific hardware — with servers that have specialized components (GPU, FPGA, HSM) or vendor-specific requirements
  • Organizations with already purchased equipment — that want to place it in a professional data center instead of their own office or server room
  • Businesses with regulatory requirements — requiring full control over the hardware and its physical location
  • Service providers — deploying their own infrastructure for resale or specific needs
  • Projects with unique requirements — that cannot be met by standard virtual or dedicated servers
