Re-architecting IT, thanks to Equinix

Equinix, Inc. has experienced significant growth and momentum within the enterprise market.

In 2014, Equinix launched two solutions – Performance Hub and Cloud Exchange – to help improve enterprise application, data and network performance, as well as speed cloud adoption. Equinix Performance Hub enables the enterprise to place corporate IT resources near large user populations, while Equinix Cloud Exchange, a complementary solution, enables seamless, on-demand and direct access to all major networks and cloud providers. Leading enterprises are recognizing the power of these solutions to improve cloud and application performance. Recent Equinix customers include American Infrastructure, CDM Smith, GP Strategies, HarperCollins and many others.


More than 100 companies have deployed Equinix Performance Hub, a distributed network architecture that speeds network and application performance by placing resources closer to end users.


Nearly one hundred companies – enterprises, networks and cloud service providers – have joined Equinix Cloud Exchange, a platform that brings cloud and network service providers together with enterprises through private, secure and high-performance connections with each other.


Equinix Cloud Exchange is currently available in 19 markets globally – Amsterdam, Atlanta, Chicago, Dallas, Frankfurt, Hong Kong, London, Los Angeles, New York, Osaka, Paris, Sao Paulo, Seattle, Silicon Valley, Singapore, Sydney, Tokyo, Toronto and Washington, D.C. – with expansion planned to a total of 21 markets in early 2015, including Melbourne and Zurich.


In 2014, leading cloud providers, such as AWS, Cisco, Google, Microsoft, SoftLayer, and many others, all announced they are joining the Equinix Cloud Exchange. Equinix has also seen rapid global adoption with the addition of network and cloud providers around the globe, including Telefonica, TI Sparkle and IX Reach in EMEA and NTT and Hitachi Data Systems (HDS) in Asia Pacific.


Equinix recently acquired Nimbo, a professional services company focused on enterprise cloud infrastructure. Nimbo provides consulting services that help enterprises migrate existing legacy applications into a hybrid cloud infrastructure and connect legacy datacenters to the cloud. Nimbo is also a certified partner of both AWS and Microsoft Azure.
