A complete service: Managed Services by firstcolo
Would you like to invest your time and capacity in your business and outsource recurring IT tasks to expert hands? Then firstcolo’s Managed Services are the right choice.
If desired, we take over the management of your entire IT infrastructure.

Websites can repeatedly experience onrushes of users due to special offers, marketing measures, or links, which cannot be processed by conventional infrastructure. Frustration, purchase cancellations, and revenue losses are the avoidable consequences. As part of our managed hosting offer, we have developed a cluster concept for e-business companies to counter such high-load peaks: a server network that can be scaled as needed during operation, which monitors or controls certain performance values using central software and can even compensate for hardware failures. We take care of managing the entire infrastructure for you – right up to the application level.
Our load balancing system offers the possibility to distribute incoming traffic across multiple servers. This ensures secure and reliable delivery of applications and content, especially in environments with high data throughput requirements. Dynamic or situation-based distribution of data traffic to multiple resources (geo-redundancy) takes place via an external interface. The efficient and accelerated load distribution across various resources results in an optimized user experience.
The geographical situation regarding firstcolo data centers fundamentally enables solid security and thus provides optimal conditions for topics such as backup concepts.
firstcolo "Virtual Private Networks" connect local networks of various company locations and ensure a unified, supra-local or even global network. We develop a matching, individual infrastructure and take care that the communication between locations is secure and encrypted. In doing so, we orient ourselves to current security standards such as digital certificates and keys.
In addition to site-to-site connections, firstcolo also offers the operation of client-to-site VPN systems. Various technologies such as IPsec, OpenVPN, Wireguard are used to provide the appropriate VPN solution.
