Colocation – IO Cooperative

Datacenter colocation is one of the two primary services IO Cooperative provides. Our members colocate hardware in our datacenters to run their businesses, support their non-profits, and host their personal projects.

Since IO Cooperative is a consumer cooperative, it’s owned by the members. As a result, our prices are derived directly from our costs for power, space and bandwidth plus whatever overhead is needed for the infrastructure.

Colocate your server»

$25/month	1, 1U rack mountable server 30 watts (about 0.144 amps at 208v) power and cooling 1 IPv4 addresses (we also support IPv6) 5Mbps at 95th percentile with 100Mbps burst capability up to 2 remote power cyclable power outlets IPMI access
$0.50/month	1 additional watt of power and the associated cooling. For example, if your host uses 57 watts this would constitute (57 – 30 = 27) 27 watts over the base or $13.50 month
$0.50/month	1 additional Mbps of bandwidth @ 95th percentile. For example, if your month bandwidth usage at 95th percentile is 7 Mbps this would constitute (7 – 5 = 2 Mbps) 2 Mbps over the base or $1/month
$1/month	1 additional IP address
$20/month	1 additional 1U of rack space

We also offer virtual servers at all datacenters.
