Equinix Inc. (Nasdaq:EQIX), a provider of global data center
services, and Logicworks, a provider of high availability public
and private cloud hosting solutions, today announced the
availability of Logicworks’ infiniCloud managed cloud solution in
Equinix’s New York (NY4) and Silicon Valley (SV2) International
Business Exchange (IBX) data centers. infiniCloud allows
organizations to migrate mission-critical applications to secure,
compliant private clouds or on-demand public clouds with infinite
scalability.
Logicworks’ customers include media companies, such as Dow
Jones, Major League Baseball and NBC, as well as financial services
providers and healthcare organizations that have public and private
cloud needs. For these customers it is critical to have a solution
that will manage unexpected spikes in usage, while ensuring that
compliance needs like HIPAA and PCI aren’t compromised.
Additionally, Logicworks’ managed services offer the ability for
customers to migrate specific applications to the public cloud,
creating the opportunity for hybrid deployments to address changing
business needs.
“Enterprises are becoming more strategic about how they deploy
cloud solutions,” said Kenneth Ziegler, president and COO of
Logicworks. “Now that infiniCloud is available on Platform Equinix,
we’re able to offer organizations a way to move mission-critical
applications to the cloud, without compromising any of their
security or compliance requirements.”
Through Platform Equinix, Logicworks is able to directly connect
to customers to deliver infiniCloud services. Equinix’s global
footprint also enables Logicworks to provide private, public and
hybrid cloud solutions beyond North America as the company expands
globally.
“We’re seeing the evolution of cloud driven by organizations
demanding more sophistication and flexibility in their
deployments,” said Vince DiMemmo, general manager of Global Cloud
Computing for Equinix. “Logicworks is bringing innovative products
to market that not only change the way their customers do business,
but also protect them against potential compliance or legal
challenges they may experience with expansion.”
