improves client experience and success is central to Cologix ’ s competitive advantage . “ Each core data center in the markets Cologix operates encompasses an important and strategic interconnection site – that ’ s our focus ,” Maskell explains . “ But , as these interconnection facilities begin to fill up , we need additional capacity to stay ahead of our clients ’ demand . To accomplish this , we construct that additional capacity outside of those interconnection hotels and connect the expansion facility by high-count fibre . This allows our clients seamless , low latency connections , while enabling them to have the carrier and cloud choice that ’ s critical to our business .”
This is the methodology and mindset with which Cologix is building and upgrading new facilities in Vancouver , Toronto , Montreal and Ashburn , Virginia . “ Cologix is within weeks of releasing an impressive and largest of its kind 40,000sqft , and 5MW of power in Vancouver ( VAN3 ). Then , in Toronto we ’ ve just brought on-line an additional floor at our 905 King Street West facility ( TOR2 ) – that encompasses 20,000sqft with 4MW of total
“ Our industry is changing rapidly : deployments are changing , business plans are being reshaped within 18 months by new technologies and new ways of delivering services ”
