Prolocation

From the standard package to your specific requirements.

Three situations we encounter every day.

Why choose a Prolocation partner?

  • Your customers want to know where your data is located

    For the government, the healthcare sector, and many B2B clients, the question of where your data is physically located is not a minor detail but a requirement in the RFP. Dutch data centers make that answer simple.

  • In the event of an outage, you end up in a queue

    If there’s an outage, you’ll be directed to a help desk that isn’t familiar with your environment and thinks in terms of tickets. With a provider on a human scale, you’ll speak to someone who knows which servers belong to you—and that saves you hours at the worst possible time.

  • Your environment doesn’t fit into a standard package

    You need a setup that doesn’t fit into a standard package: your own network configuration, specific hardware, or an environment that must comply with a standard. That requires a custom solution instead of a subscription.

Prolocation as the engine behind your infrastructure

Hosting only stands out when things go wrong—and then it’s not about specifications but about who you can call. For organizations with requirements regarding location, availability, or certification, that question is important from the very beginning.

Prolocation is the engine behind it all. Dutch data centers, your own network, and an environment you configure based on what your application needs—rather than what’s included in the package.

You know where you stand. Where your data is physically located, who has access to it, and what happens if something goes down are determined in advance rather than being left to the terms and conditions.

What We Do with Prolocation

We start with your requirements, not the technology: what standards do you need to meet, what does your largest customer require, and how much downtime can you tolerate? The design follows from there, and it can look very different for each organization.

Next, we design the environment and migrate in stages with a fallback plan. Backups and recovery procedures are part of the foundation, and we actually test those procedures.

After going live, we monitor availability and load times, and we review these with you monthly. During peak periods, we assess in advance whether your environment can handle the load.

Three things you’ll notice about working with us.

Why choose Redkiwi as your Prolocation partner?

  • You know where you stand

    You know where your environment stands, who’s involved, and how it’s performing. Every month, we go over this together, and you decide where we need to make adjustments. No black box and no surprises.

  • Independent advice

    If you’re running a standard online store without any special requirements, specialized or scalable cloud hosting is simpler and more cost-effective. That’s what we recommend, even if it means less work for us.

  • Builder and administrator in one

    We build the application that runs on it, so we know where it struggles and why. That eliminates the need to pass the buck between the developer and the host if something goes wrong. You work with a dedicated specialist who knows your environment.

Frequently Asked Questions About Hosting

01/ Why should it matter where my data is physically located?
In government and healthcare tenders, this is often a strict requirement, and an increasing number of corporate clients are asking for it. Dutch data centers make the answer simple and verifiable.
02/ Who can I call if something goes wrong?
We’re your point of contact and will get in touch with the hosting provider right away. That means you won’t end up on hold with a help desk that isn’t familiar with your environment. We’ll agree in advance on what to do for each level of severity, rather than having to figure it out during an outage.
03/ How does a migration to new hosting work?
Step by step, with a fallback plan. We set up the new environment alongside the existing one, test it with real data, and only switch over once everything is correct. A move with no way back is not a plan.
04/ Do you also handle backups and monitoring?
Yes. Backups and recovery procedures are part of the basics, not additional services. We actually test the restore process as well, because a backup that has never been restored is just an assumption, not a certainty.
