Nebraska is not currently regarded as a thriving colocation market, but recent trends do indicate moderate growth in comparison with preceding years. However, this market has yet to compete with more developed surrounding markets, where most customers actually go.

In spite of the slow growth, the market does benefit from a series of advantages for colocation:

– the state’s centralized position
– relatively low electricity cost, much cheaper than surrounding markets. This makes Nebraska an ideal choice for disaster recovery and business continuity solutions
– relatively low risks for natural disasters
– cold winters, which results in less costs for colocation providers. However, summers can get very hot
