Frequently asked questions

How much does a rack (colocation) cost in Tianjin?

a full rack is priced on electrical power (kVA), IP transit and cross-connects. Compare the 3 data centers in Tianjin to get a costed quote.

What is the difference between housing and colocation?

None: “housing” and “colocation” mean the same thing — hosting your own servers in a third-party data center, as opposed to renting a dedicated server or public cloud.

Which data centers in Tianjin are ISO 27001 certified?

Filter by certification (ISO 27001, HDS, PCI-DSS) in the comparator to keep only compliant sites.

Learn the basics: colocation, 42U rack, cross-connect, IP transit, Tier III/IV.

Costed answers: how much does a rack cost?, cross-connect pricing, colocation or cloud? — and the colocation price barometer.

What does a rack in Tianjin really cost?

Beyond listed prices, here is the computed cost of a standard 5 kW rack in Tianjin, from our open market model (published method, version 2026.07-v1):

ItemEstimate
5 kW rack, per month€850 – €1,500
Cost per kW per month€150 – €270
Over 3 years (36 months)€30,600 – €54,000

What this covers: local industrial energy tariff, site efficiency (PUE), retail colocation margin and local market tightness. What it does not: IP transit, cross-connects, setup fees and PDUs — priced site by site in the comparator.

An estimate, not an offer. It is a model, with an open method and a version — not a contractual rate. A quote prices your actual configuration. Think the model is wrong? The method is published: tell us where.

What Tianjin allows

Tianjin has 3 data centers, operated by Telstra (International), Chayora Limited, EdgeConneX Inc.. Declared design level: Tier III. That level describes the building's redundancy, not a contractual availability commitment: only the contract carries one.

Connectivity from Tianjin

3 networks are listed at the sites in Tianjin according to public interconnection registries. That number drives your negotiating power: every carrier inside the building is one more quote, with no civil works.

Compliance and sovereignty

Note: part of the operation falls under a US-jurisdiction company, hence under the CLOUD Act. Hosting in Europe is not enough to escape it: what counts is the provider's nationality, not the building's address.

The electricity behind Tianjin

A city has no electricity of its own: the sites in Tianjin are connected to the national grid, itself interconnected with its neighbours. What is measured, and what decides, is therefore the country's generation mix. That grid draws 54.3% of its electricity from coal (2025). The detail: coal 54.3%, hydro 13.2%, solar 11.1%, wind 10.7%, nuclear 4.6%, natural gas 3.2%. Fossil fuels (coal, gas, oil) account for 58.3% of it. A kilowatt-hour there weighs 525 g of CO2, i.e. 1.1 times the world average (458 g), 2025 figure. Concretely: a 3 kVA rack, in a site with a PUE of 1.5, draws 35,478 kWh a year and therefore emits 18.6 tonnes of CO2 a year here. The same rack, same hardware, same PUE, would emit 16 tonnes on a world-average grid. The building has nothing to do with it: the country does.

What the ground has done under Tianjin

Since 1970, 14 earthquakes of magnitude 5 or above have been recorded within 100 km of Tianjin, and 32 within 200 km. The strongest: magnitude 7.5 in 1976, 73 km away. This record covers 56 years, which is short on a seismic timescale: no recorded earthquake does not mean no hazard. It does not replace the statutory zoning, which alone binds construction.

What Tianjin does not allow

No Internet exchange point is listed here: traffic will run over transit bought from a carrier, which is billed by bandwidth. No rate is published by the operators in this city: pricing is on request, and we do not estimate it on their behalf.

Other cities with data centers near Tianjin

The nearest site outside Tianjin is 93 km away, in Beijing (10 sites). Short distances matter: they drive the cost of a link between two buildings, and whether a backup site is workable.
