Savvis, a CenturyLink company, has announced this year's schedule of global data center expansions and grand openings.

The opening of new Savvis data centers in Singapore and London, combined with expansions of existing Savvis data centers in Santa Clara, CA.; Washington, DC; Dallas; Weehawken, NJ; and London, will increase the company's global footprint in response to growing market demand for its enterprise cloud, managed hosting, network, and colocation services.
