Furthermore, colocation facilities provide onsite support services such as remote hands that help in troubleshooting issues for the IT infrastructure. Thus, data center colocation services help BFSI organizations in improving flexibility, reliability, security, and cost efficiencies, and in alleviating risks, resulting in increasing demand for these services in the BFSI industry.
