Cloud Colocation Provider

Wednesday, July 28th, 2010

Now I know what you are thinking…Cloud colocation, doesn’t that defeat the purpose of cloud servers?  Well,  Telx announced that it has been selected as a cloud colocation provider by DediPower.  This will help enable secure, reliable delivery of on-demand cloud application and managed hosting services, including its recently-launched Public Cloud offering, to customers in three continents.

“DediPower was in need of a Manhattan colocation facility to extend our state-side coverage and provide connectivity to our overseas customers,” said Craig Martin, CEO of DediPower. “We looked for the colocation partner within the U.S. that had the most strategic locations and the largest number of service providers we could choose from to ensure reliable application and storage service delivery. Our international and North American customers can directly tap into our infrastructure on a guaranteed, high-speed connection in the 60 Hudson Street location, without going over the public Internet. The Telx solution provides our managed private cloud network the high redundancy, security and connectivity choice we require.”

Again, I think the fact that they have started tagging cloud colocation is hilarious but I guess they can get away with it right?
