Portfolio
DataBank Services
Colocation, managed cloud, standard cloud, compliance services, storage, data center migration, and hybrid IT — delivered from compliance-ready facilities across the central and southern US.
Colocation
DataBank colocation provides enterprise-grade data center space — physical cage, cabinet, and rack deployments within DataBank's regional facilities across the central and southern US. Customers house their own hardware inside DataBank's power, cooling, and physical security infrastructure, gaining carrier-neutral connectivity and compliance-ready facilities without the capital expense of building or owning a data center.
Managed Cloud (PaaS)
DataBank's Managed Cloud delivers Platform as a Service — cloud infrastructure with an operational management layer included. DataBank handles patching, monitoring, backup, and day-to-day management so customer teams can focus on applications and business outcomes rather than infrastructure operations. Suited for organizations that want cloud flexibility without the burden of managing the underlying environment.
Standard Cloud (IaaS)
DataBank's Standard Cloud provides Infrastructure as a Service — flexible compute, storage, and networking resources that customer teams provision and control. Customers manage operating systems, middleware, and applications while DataBank operates the underlying physical infrastructure. Designed for organizations with internal IT capacity to manage cloud workloads and a preference for direct infrastructure control.
Compliance Services
DataBank's Compliance Services are built around HIPAA, PCI-DSS, and SOC 2 requirements — providing the audit-ready facilities, documented controls, and operational procedures that regulated industries demand. Healthcare organizations, financial services firms, and technology companies can leverage DataBank's compliance infrastructure to reduce the internal burden of satisfying regulatory requirements within their data center and cloud environments.
Storage as a Service
DataBank's Storage as a Service delivers scalable, managed storage capacity consumed on a subscription basis — removing the need to purchase, provision, and maintain storage hardware internally. Customers scale storage to match actual data requirements without upfront capital investment, with DataBank managing the underlying storage infrastructure, redundancy, and availability within its data center environment.
Cloud & Data Center Migration
DataBank's migration services support enterprises exiting legacy owned data centers or transitioning workloads into colocation, private cloud, or hybrid cloud environments. The service covers assessment and dependency mapping, migration design, execution support, and post-migration validation — providing a structured, low-disruption path from aging infrastructure to a modern hybrid IT environment.
Hybrid IT
DataBank's Hybrid IT architecture connects on-premises equipment, private cloud, and public cloud resources into a unified operating environment. Rather than forcing a full public cloud migration, Hybrid IT allows organizations to keep compliance-sensitive or latency-sensitive workloads in colocation or private cloud while leveraging public cloud platforms for scalable workloads — with DataBank's facilities and managed networking providing the connective tissue.
Ideal For
Who DataBank Serves Best
Central US Enterprises
Organizations headquartered in or serving the Dallas, Kansas City, Minneapolis, Omaha, Memphis, Pittsburgh, or Salt Lake City markets — where DataBank's regional footprint provides the geographic proximity and low-latency connectivity that coastal-focused providers cannot match.
Regulated Industries
Healthcare organizations, financial services firms, and technology companies with HIPAA, PCI-DSS, or SOC 2 obligations — where compliance-ready facilities, documented controls, and audit-ready infrastructure are non-negotiable requirements rather than nice-to-haves.
Hybrid IT Adopters
Enterprises that need to bridge on-premises infrastructure, private cloud, and public cloud rather than executing a full public cloud migration — particularly organizations with compliance-sensitive workloads, existing hardware investments, or latency requirements that prevent moving everything to public cloud.
Legacy Data Center Exiters
Enterprises locked into aging owned data centers that need a structured, low-disruption path to modern infrastructure — whether through colocation, managed cloud, or a hybrid architecture — with migration services that handle assessment, planning, and execution.
Why DataBank
Key Strengths
What sets DataBank apart from other colocation and managed cloud providers.
DataBank's data center footprint spans Dallas, Kansas City, Minneapolis, Omaha, Memphis, Pittsburgh, and Salt Lake City — positioning it as one of the strongest colocation and managed cloud options for enterprises headquartered in or serving the central US corridor. Organizations that require regional proximity to their infrastructure, prefer non-coastal data center locations, or need low-latency connectivity to central US operations will find DataBank's footprint purpose-built for their geography.
DataBank's facilities and operational controls are designed to support HIPAA, PCI-DSS, and SOC 2 compliance — providing the audit-ready infrastructure, documented procedures, and physical and logical controls that regulated industries require. For healthcare organizations, financial services firms, and technology companies with compliance obligations, DataBank removes the complexity of building compliant infrastructure from scratch.
DataBank's core differentiation is its ability to bridge on-premises, private cloud, and public cloud environments into a single, manageable Hybrid IT architecture. Organizations that are not ready or able to move entirely to public cloud — because of compliance requirements, latency needs, or existing hardware investments — can use DataBank's Hybrid IT platform to integrate all three tiers without managing disconnected environments independently.
DataBank's Cloud and Data Center Migration services provide a structured path for enterprises locked into aging owned data centers. Assessment, planning, workload mapping, and execution support reduce the risk and complexity of large-scale migrations — making DataBank a practical partner for organizations that need to exit legacy infrastructure but lack the internal capacity to manage a migration project at scale.
DataBank's Managed Cloud and Storage as a Service offerings include operational management as a core component — DataBank handles patching, monitoring, backup, and availability so customer IT teams are not responsible for infrastructure operations. For organizations with limited internal IT capacity or teams focused on application development rather than infrastructure management, DataBank's managed layer reduces operational burden without sacrificing control over workload placement and architecture.
