Curated Supplier · Colocation · US Metro-Edge

DataBank — metro-edge colocation with DR, close to where your users actually are.

DataBank operates 65+ data centers across 27+ US metros, pairing edge colocation with managed services and disaster recovery. The footprint is deliberately metro-edge — distributed presence in the cities your users live in rather than a handful of mega-campuses. For mid-market organizations that need local colo and DR without a global platform's complexity, DataBank is built for that shape.

What DataBank actually does.

DataBank runs 65+ data centers across 27+ US metropolitan areas, combining colocation with managed services and disaster recovery. Its identity is the metro-edge model: many sites distributed across many cities rather than concentration in a few tier-1 campuses. That breadth of metros is the point — for organizations needing local presence in lots of US markets, plus DR, DataBank covers ground few mid-market-focused operators match.

Capabilities · A short list

Edge colocation Cage and cabinet space across 65+ sites in 27+ US metros — local presence at metro scale.
Managed services Managed infrastructure and operations for teams that want to offload day-to-day work to the operator.
Disaster recovery DR and continuity services so colocation and recovery come from one operator.
Metro-edge footprint Distributed across many US metros — useful for latency and local-data requirements.
Connectivity Network and cloud connectivity to support hybrid architectures across the metro footprint.

Who this fits.

Best Fit

Mid-market needing metro-edge colo + DR

Organizations that want local colocation presence across many US metros, paired with disaster recovery from a single operator.

Strong Fit

Buyers needing breadth of US metros

If your requirement is presence in many cities rather than depth in a few, DataBank's 27+ metro footprint is the value.

Mixed Fit

Regulated buyers leading with compliance-grade managed DR

If your lead requirement is HIPAA/PCI/SOC 2 with managed DR sized for mid-market, TierPoint may be a closer match. Worth comparing.

Less Likely

Enterprises wanting a deep hybrid-cloud platform

If you need a broad hybrid IT and interconnection platform across secondary markets, Flexential's FlexAnywhere may fit better.
