CoreSite Realty Corporation (NYSE:COR), a premier provider of
secure, reliable, high-performance data center solutions
across the US, today announced that the AMS-IX USA Inc., a
subsidiary of AMS-IX (Amsterdam Internet Exchange) in Amsterdam,
has established an AMS-IX Bay Area Point-of-Presence (PoP) in
CoreSite’s Silicon Valley market. This PoP enables both companies
to provide additional peering opportunities to the Silicon Valley
Internet and technology community.
AMS-IX Bay Area provides a physical platform, housed in two
Silicon Valley data center facilities, where organizations can meet
to exchange Internet traffic in a stable, fast and cost-effective
manner between one another. AMS-IX Bay Area builds on the neutral
and distributed formula of AMS-IX, which is the world’s largest
Internet connectivity hub with almost 700 connected parties and a
peak Internet traffic rate of more than 3 Tb/s.
“CoreSite’s secure, network-rich Silicon Valley data center
market is the perfect location for us to further grow AMS-IX Bay
Area and expand our choice of connectivity options,” said Job
Witteman, CEO of AMS-IX. “With years of experience in operating
high-performance data center and colocation facilities in the
United States, we see CoreSite as a trusted and reliable colocation
provider.”
CoreSite’s Silicon Valley market is comprised of five data
centers totaling over 863,000 square feet, centrally located within
one of the largest concentrations of Internet and technology
companies in the world. More than 170 international and national
carriers, cloud providers and enterprise businesses connect to do
business in CoreSite’s Silicon Valley platform.
“Peering exchanges are an integral part of the Internet, and
AMS-IX Bay Area will bring another valuable option to CoreSite
customers in the Silicon Valley market,” said Brian Warren, SVP
Product and Marketing for CoreSite. “AMS-IX has a proven strategy
of building industry-leading Internet Exchanges in key connectivity
hubs. We look forward to AMS-IX establishing a presence with
CoreSite and enhancing connectivity options for our customers.”
