Volico serves Boca Raton through FLL1, its colocation facility in Deerfield Beach. FLL1 already supports businesses across Broward and Palm Beach counties, so an IT team can reach its equipment the same day instead of making the longer trip to downtown Miami.

Why Boca Raton businesses choose FLL1

FLL1 is carrier neutral, so a Boca Raton company can choose among several network providers instead of committing to a single carrier. That matters for businesses running cloud applications or processing transactions in real time, because one extra network hop can add noticeable delay.

Hurricane season shapes South Florida operations, so Volico designed the facility with storms in mind. FLL1 runs on backup generator power and redundant cooling, so operations can continue if the local grid goes down during a storm. That matters for a Boca Raton business, because otherwise it would need a separate disaster recovery site in case the power fails at home.

Boca Raton clients range from a single rack to a full cage, but the same facility handles both. FLL1 has room to grow with them, so nobody has to move to a different facility later. Volico also offers managed services on request, including backup and disaster recovery, for teams that would rather not run that piece themselves.

Boca Raton colocation options at FLL1

FLL1 is a Tier IV enterprise class data center. It provides colocation and dedicated server hosting to organizations throughout Boca Raton, as well as the Fort Lauderdale, Broward County, and West Palm Beach markets. Managed services cover monitoring, security, backups, and 24/7 remote hands support from certified technicians, so your team is not on call around the clock. Customers who want Volico’s team handling day to day operations can also add software installation, hardware support, and network design.

Colocation at FLL1 is available in quarter racks, half racks, full racks, and custom cages, so the space can match the deployment. A quarter rack fits a small deployment, such as a handful of servers and networking gear supporting a single application. A half or full rack suits a growing IT footprint, for example a company consolidating multiple office locations into one facility. Custom cages give larger deployments dedicated, lockable floor space instead of shared cabinet rows. 2N+X redundant power and cooling runs throughout the facility. The network is also carrier neutral, so customers can choose their own connectivity provider.

FLL1 carries HIPAA, SOC 2 Type II, and NIST compliance. As a result, it suits healthcare organizations handling patient records and financial firms facing SOC 2 audits. Government contractors that need NIST aligned controls can also host there.

Because FLL1 sits far enough inland, it avoids coastal storm surge risk. It is also close to Fort Lauderdale-Hollywood International Airport, so site visits and equipment deliveries are easy from Boca Raton.

Boca Raton colocation FAQ

How is FLL1 different from a Miami colocation facility? FLL1 sits inland in Deerfield Beach rather than downtown Miami. Boca Raton, Broward, and northern Miami-Dade businesses can reach it instead of driving to the NAP of the Americas corridor. It meets the same Tier IV, category five hurricane resistant standard, so the difference is location, not build quality.

Can I tour FLL1 before signing a contract? Yes. Volico offers both in-person and virtual tours of the FLL1 facility, so you can see it before you sign. Use the schedule a tour form below when you are ready to set a date.

What size deployment fits a quarter rack versus a cage? A quarter rack typically covers a single application on a handful of servers, while a cage gives larger, multi-cabinet deployments dedicated, lockable floor space. Volico’s team will size a deployment against your actual hardware list before you sign a contract.
