What’s included
Every plan includes the following regardless of rack type or location.Power and cooling
Each rack includes redundant power at the committed capacity and active cooling managed by the data center facility. Customers who exceed their committed power allocation are charged an overcommit fee.Network connectivity
Colocated equipment connects directly to Gcore’s global low-latency network, built for content delivery and high-performance applications. High-bandwidth internet access is part of the plan at every location. Additional connectivity services (IP Transit, IP Access, Cross-Connects, and Leased Lines) are available as separate add-ons.DDoS protection
Traffic to colocated servers can be routed through Gcore’s own scrubbing infrastructure before reaching the equipment. It’s a native network capability, not a third-party service, and it’s included at no additional cost.On-site technical support
Technical staff are on-site 24/7 to handle remote hands, hardware troubleshooting, racking and stacking, and emergency response. The Smart Hands service is available as a paid add-on for more complex work: hardware installation, component replacement, diagnostics, and cable management.Billing model
Rack space is billed monthly based on rack type and location. Power is committed at a fixed allocation per rack; usage beyond that allocation is charged as an overcommit fee. Additional services such as Smart Hands and connectivity are billed separately.
