KAMP

What KAMP does

KAMP Netzwerkdienste GmbH is a privately held German colocation and IT infrastructure provider headquartered in Oberhausen, North Rhine-Westphalia, founded in 1994 and operating from a single certified data center with over 2,000 m² of floor space. The company delivers a vertically integrated portfolio spanning server housing (private rack), private suites (ECB-S certified Room-In-Room cells with biometric access), cloud/virtual data center services, and a full stack of network connectivity products including MPLS, VPN, VPLS, Dark Fiber, and Wireless Local Loop (WLL), with the company operating its own BGP-routed network and 24/7 NOC. KAMP is differentiated by an unusually broad certification footprint (ISO 27001, 27002, 27018, 9001, 14001, ECB-S), 99.99% guaranteed power availability, a PUE of 1.2, and 100% renewable electricity, with a public commitment to climate-neutral operations by 2030 under the Climate Neutral Data Centre Pact.

The company's revenue model is built entirely on recurring monthly subscriptions across colocation rack rentals, cloud services, the proprietary KAMP DHP (Dynamic Hardware Pool) enterprise product, managed firewalls and NOC monitoring, and specialized healthcare IT services including KV-SafeNet certified connectivity. Go-to-market is sales-led and direct, targeting German enterprise and mid-market customers across all industries plus a specialized healthcare vertical, using named account executives, callback booking via Zoho Bookings, and phone/email inbound — no channel partners, resellers, or marketplace distribution. Pricing is quote-based and not publicly disclosed; cost drivers include rack units, power draw, bandwidth, and add-on managed services. Recent strategic emphasis is on the KI-Hosting (AI/ML hosting) product, the DHP platform, and sustainability credentials, with consecutive ISG Provider Lens Leader recognition (2021, 2022) and a 2025 REVIER MANAGER regional ranking providing third-party validation.
