New Points-of-Presence in Chicago, New York
and Virginia will help meet the high-speed connectivity needs in
three of the United States’ leading data center
marketplaces
Hurricane Electric, the world’s largest IPv6-native Internet
backbone, and CoreSite Realty Corporation (NYSE:COR), a premier
provider of secure, reliable, high-performance data center
solutions across the U.S., today announced that Hurricane Electric
is extending its global IPv4 and IPv6 network to CoreSite data
centers in New York, Chicago, and Reston, VA.
CoreSite’s New York campus is comprised of two data center
facilities, housed in Manhattan and Secaucus, NJ, providing
cost-effective, scalable, network-dense connectivity to customers
throughout the New York metro area. Located adjacent to the Board
of Trade, CoreSite’s Chicago data center provides extremely
low-latency connectivity for financial and enterprise customers.
CoreSite’s Northern Virginia campus is strategically located
between Ashburn and Washington, D.C., enabling customers’
connectivity in one of the nation’s key data center markets. These
new Points-of-Presence (PoPs) add to Hurricane Electric’s existing
PoPs with CoreSite, located in Denver, Los Angeles and Silicon
Valley.
The three new PoPs will offer CoreSite customers from the
financial services, governmental, and enterprise sectors additional
connectivity options at higher bandwidth speeds through 100GE (100
Gigabit Ethernet), 10GE (10 gigabit Ethernet), GigE (1 gigabit
Ethernet) and 100BaseT network connections. Additionally, these
customers now have the opportunity to exchange IP traffic, or
“peer,” with Hurricane Electric’s rich global network through
CoreSite’s Any2Exchange® for Internet peering. With the launch of
these new PoPs, businesses directly outside of these rapidly
growing metro areas will also see improved service.
“We are pleased that Hurricane Electric has chosen to continue
their growth with us and expand their availability to CoreSite data
centers in New York, Chicago and Northern Virginia,” said Aron
Smith, VP of Interconnection and Cloud for CoreSite. “Hurricane
Electric’s presence in these markets will further enhance our
ability to offer CoreSite customers access to leading network
providers.”
“Over the last few years, the data center markets of New York,
Chicago and Northern Virginia have been growing at a rapid pace, so
connecting to these three CoreSite locations is a perfect fit for
Hurricane Electric and will enable us to meet the demand for
high-speed Internet connectivity,” said Reid Fishler, Director of
Carrier Services for Hurricane Electric. “These new locations will
allow us to offer our services directly to CoreSite’s expanding
customer base in these three markets.”
