Having your own DC would cost a lot of money, and i'm not talking about a few grand either. Looking at $200,000+ depending on size and quality of servers, not to mention the other costs such as bandwidth, electricity, cooling units, etc.


Not to mention the time needed to get clients, advertising, and running it would rough at first.

Simple definition to understand what is DC.

"Data center is place to store your website data at one location so that anyone can access it through internet. " Your website data is stored on the server and are connected to the internet. Data could be images. files etc..

A data center is basically a location where a person/ business entity hosts their website(s),or you can say hosts their servers.
