A Licensing and Affiliation Program for Independent Data Centers
The Operating Network for
Independent Data Centers.
Powered by GridColo helps data center owners and operators participate in a common marketplace, service framework, commercial workflow, compliance-readiness model, and operations-support network — without requiring every facility to give up ownership or identity.

How It Works
Adopt the level of structure that fits your operation.
Operators can adopt program capabilities in stages: marketplace visibility first, then standardized commercial workflows, compliance-readiness support, and managed operations overlays when appropriate. You keep ownership, customer relationships, and operating control at every tier.
- Marketplace visibility and standardized capability profiles
- Quote-request intake and commercial workflow integration
- GridPass and Site Portal workflows
- Compliance-readiness support and fractional SME access
- Central operations overlay for Managed-tier sites

The Four Tiers
Start where you are. Scale as you grow.
Each tier is additive. Progress at your own pace based on your operating model and customer requirements.

How It Fits Together
One ecosystem. Distinct roles.
GridCore is the campus framework. GridColo is the service brand. Powered by GridColo is the operating affiliation and licensing program. A facility may be built with GridCore, participate in Powered by GridColo, offer GridColo services, or use GridColo Inside white-label support depending on the operator's goals.
