Cologix Expands Data Center Footprint with Acquisition of COLO-D

Cologix, a leading provider of interconnection and data center services, has announced the acquisition of COLO-D, a Montreal-based provider of colocation and connectivity solutions. This acquisition will expand Cologix’s data center footprint in Montreal, adding 50,000 square feet of data center space and 1.5 MW of power capacity to its existing facilities in the city.

The acquisition of COLO-D is part of Cologix’s strategy to expand its presence in key markets across North America. Montreal is a strategic location for Cologix, as it is a major hub for the technology, media, and telecommunications industries in Canada. With this acquisition, Cologix will be able to offer its customers a wider range of interconnection and colocation services in Montreal, including access to its Cloud Connect platform, which provides direct connectivity to major cloud providers such as Amazon Web Services, Microsoft Azure, and Google Cloud Platform.

In addition to expanding its data center footprint in Montreal, Cologix has also announced the expansion of its interconnection platform in Frankfurt, Germany, through a partnership with DE-CIX, the world’s leading Internet Exchange operator. This partnership will enable Cologix to offer its customers direct access to DE-CIX’s Frankfurt Internet Exchange, one of the largest and most important Internet Exchange points in the world.

The partnership with DE-CIX will also enable Cologix to offer its customers access to DE-CIX’s GlobePEER Remote service, which provides remote peering capabilities to more than 30 Internet Exchange points around the world. This will enable Cologix’s customers to connect to a wider range of networks and content providers, improving their network performance and reducing their costs.

In addition to its expansion in Montreal and Frankfurt, Cologix has also announced the completion of a new data center in Ashburn, Virginia, in partnership with Sabey Data Centers. The new data center, known as VA3, is a 245,000 square foot facility with 18 MW of power capacity, and is located in one of the most important data center markets in the world.

The VA3 data center is designed to meet the needs of hyperscale cloud providers, as well as enterprise customers, and features a range of advanced technologies, including high-density power and cooling systems, advanced security and monitoring systems, and redundant power and network connectivity. The data center is also designed to be highly energy-efficient, with a Power Usage Effectiveness (PUE) rating of 1.2, one of the lowest in the industry.

Finally, Cologix has also announced the completion of a new fiber optic network in the state of Iowa, in partnership with IQ Fiber, a leading provider of fiber optic infrastructure in the Midwest. The new network will provide high-speed connectivity to businesses and organizations in Iowa, enabling them to access a wider range of cloud services, applications, and content.

The new fiber optic network will also enable Cologix to expand its presence in the Midwest, a key market for the company. With this expansion, Cologix will be able to offer its customers a wider range of interconnection and colocation services in the region, including access to its Cloud Connect platform and its network of data centers across North America.

In conclusion, Cologix’s recent announcements demonstrate the company’s commitment to expanding its data center footprint and interconnection platform in key markets across North America and Europe. With its acquisition of COLO-D in Montreal, its partnership with DE-CIX in Frankfurt, its new data center in Ashburn, and its fiber optic network in Iowa, Cologix is well-positioned to meet the growing demand for interconnection and colocation services in these important markets.
