IXEurope strengthens position in Swiss datacenter market

Zürich (ots)

Expansion of Zurich 2 IXDatacenter and completion of Telehouse
(Suisse) acquisition forms market-leading IXEurope (Switzerland) AG
IXEurope, Europe's specialist datacenter services
company, has today announced that, following the successful
acquisition of Telehouse (Suisse) SA, the Group's Swiss operations
have been merged to form a new subsidiary - IXEurope (Switzerland)
AG. The Swiss company now comprises three highly sophisticated and
secure datacenters - the new one in Geneva joining the existing two
in Zurich.
IXEurope, which provides mission-critical infrastructure support
to companies such as Google, Migros, Sunrise and Savvis, also
announced that it has extended its Zurich 2 IXDatacenter, only 18
months after it opened the facility.  Since Zurich 1 and 2 are
currently fully occupied, the expansion - which will extend
IXEurope's presence by 66% - will accommodate continued growth with
existing customers and new clients, as well as allowing IXEurope to
invest in upgraded security and power infrastructure.  Zurich 2 now
offers two fully separate power systems for a truly N+N power
configuration option.
Guy Willner, the CEO of IXEurope commented, "These are exciting
times for IXEurope.  Our latest acquisition - of Telehouse (Suisse)
SA - consolidates our market-leading position in Switzerland. The
extension of our Zurich 2 IXDatacenter is evidence that demand for
datacenter services in Switzerland is high, with customers seeking
access to diverse networks like ours with resilient solutions. We are
now able to provide wider national coverage to all our clients as
well as offering our services directly to local companies. IXEurope
has aligned its growth strategy alongside its global customers who
increasingly demand pan-European coverage to support their business
objectives, and we are continuing to look for additional sites to
complete the Group's European network."
