Your hardware, our power and pipe

When you need control over your own hardware

Colocation is rack space in a professional data centre. You own the servers; we provide the power, cooling, bandwidth, and security. It's the answer for businesses that need direct hardware control — data sovereignty, custom configurations, predictable costs — without the overhead of running an on-site facility.

Whether you're colocating a single server for backup and disaster recovery or multiple racks for primary production services, we're set up for small and medium businesses that want serious infrastructure without an enterprise price tag.

Why Kamloops

  • Seismic stability — outside the coastal high-risk zones
  • Low weather risk — no hurricane or wildfire corridor
  • Metres from cross-Canada fibre trunk lines
  • Canadian jurisdiction — your data stays under Canadian privacy law

Inside the Facility

What a rack at SilverServers looks like

Six systems behind every colocated server. Not all of them are things you'll think about — but all of them are things you'd notice if they were missing.

Colocation vs cloud

Colocation and cloud aren’t opposites

Knowing when each one fits is how you keep costs down and control up.

When colocation wins

Predictable workloads, strict data sovereignty, custom hardware needs, or workloads where egress fees eat your margin. Colocated servers with dedicated resources beat cloud on cost at steady-state utilization — often by a lot.

When cloud wins

Unpredictable or bursty workloads, global latency needs, managed services you don't want to operate yourself. Hybrid is the common end state: colocated hardware for the steady core, cloud for burst capacity and edge delivery.

Tell us your power, connectivity, and rack needs — we’ll come back with a facility-tour timeline, a rack reservation hold, and a monthly cost estimate.

A few quick questions so we can come back with something useful — only your name and email are required.

Help us prep · optional
How much rack space do you need?

Ballpark how many U your gear takes — roughly 1U per pizza-box server, 2U for most workhorses. We’ll size up if it’s tight.

More to help us prep optional
Estimated power draw per rack?

Most customers cluster around 2–5 kW per rack. Heavy compute or dense storage pushes higher — we’ll confirm draw against the facility power budget.

What bandwidth profile fits the workload?

Steady-state bandwidth, not burst. We’re carrier-neutral and run dual 100G to the edge — if your workload doesn’t fit, tell us what you’re trying to do.

Public IP needs?

IPv4 is scarce and we’re conservative about allocations. Tell us the real need and we’ll right-size it.

What might you need from us on-site?

If you can drive to the rack yourself, fine. If you’re across the country and need us to power-cycle a hung box at 2 a.m., that’s what we’re here for.

Where’s the hardware coming from?

We’ve got vendor relationships from nearly 30 years of operating. If you want us to procure, we can usually beat list pricing.
