Colocation in Manchester: How It Works

Reboot Monkey sells colocation in partner data centres in Manchester: the rack space, the network connectivity with IP transit and leased IP addresses, the data-centre hardware (servers and network equipment), and the service that delivers, installs and supports it, all under one agreement. The space is contracted in the facility that fits the customer's power, network and access requirements, and Reboot Monkey confirms free space and power in the facility before it names a building or a date. Equinix MA1 - Manchester, Williams/Kilburn stands on Manchester Science Park. A request starts with the customer's power, network and rack requirements, after which Reboot Monkey checks availability against those requirements and quotes the rack size and facility that fit. Prices are quoted on request and depend on the customer and the size of the job; colocation prices specifically are quoted per facility and rack size. Once terms are agreed, Reboot Monkey orders the cross connects and carrier circuits from the facility operator and the carriers present in the building, and Reboot Monkey engineers install and patch the cabling in the customer's rack as part of the same agreement.

What We Deliver

Beyond the rack and the network, Reboot Monkey engineers carry out the physical and technical work a colocation customer needs once equipment is in the building. Remote hands covers physical tasks carried out on the customer's instruction, such as reboots, cable checks, component swaps and visual checks. Smart hands covers technical work that needs diagnostic judgement and configuration knowledge, for cases where a simple instruction is not enough. Rack and stack covers installing, mounting and cabling new hardware into the contracted space, and server migration covers moving equipment between racks, rooms or facilities as a customer's footprint changes. When hardware reaches end of life, data center decommissioning covers removing and disposing of the retired equipment, and IT asset disposition covers data wiping, on-site shredding or degaussing, collection and transport, with resale or buyback quoted case by case. Hardware monitoring, carried out by the Reboot Monkey NOC, covers ongoing monitoring of the customer's servers and network equipment once it is racked.

Why Reboot Monkey

Every customer site has a second, briefed Reboot Monkey engineer named as backup, so the work does not depend on a single point of contact. Access to the rack itself depends on the type of space contracted: in a shared rack only Reboot Monkey engineers handle the customer's equipment, while a customer with a dedicated rack can visit its own equipment, escorted by Reboot Monkey under the building's access rules, with the escort arranged on request. This means the customer deals with one agreement and one point of contact for the rack, the network and the hardware, while the facility itself continues to be run by the company that owns it. Reynolds House, Manchester stands on Reynolds House.
