Terremark Signs Lease Agreement with Digital Realty for Top-Tier Facility in Amsterdam. The Terremark facility will feature massive connectivity with the Amsterdam Internet Exchange. The AIE is one of the world’s largest internet exchanges, committed to establish a peering node at the datacenter.
“Our ability to rapidly and cost effectively provide top-tier datacenter properties in support of Terremark’s expansion efforts positioned Digital Realty as a key partner for this exciting project,” said Michael F. Foust, Digital Realty’s CEO. “We’re very excited to be working closely with Terremark as it strengthens its presence in Europe and we look forward to continuing to extend this strategic partnership.”
The new cloud hosting datacenter in Amsterdam will feature diverse connectivity to hundreds of global networks through the establishment of a node by AMS-IX. With network density from all major Dutch Internet Service Providers (ISPs) and several major international ISPs, AMS-IX’s presence in the facility allows Terremark to provide customers with reduced latency and transit costs for their business-critical environments.
“As we look to expand our infrastructure to meet the growing demands of Internet traffic across Europe, world-class partners like Terremark are a key part of our strategy,” said Job Witteman, CEO of AMS-IX. “Based on Terremark’s history of offering industry-leading services from some of the world’s most sophisticated datacenters, we believe this partnership will greatly benefit our members as well as Terremark’s current and prospective customers.”
