New facility meets regional demand for data center colocation and direct access to global cloud, network, and content providers.
Equinix, Inc. has announced that its fifth International Business Exchange™ (IBX®) in Dallas is fully operational. The newest data center, called DA6, will support growing demand for Platform Equinix™ in the Dallas/Fort Worth metropolitan area, one of Equinix's most network-dense locations.
"In the early days of the Internet's infrastructure, Equinix saw the potential for Dallas to be a major Internet and network peering exchange point. We have invested significantly in the region and, as a result, we now operate the largest Internet exchange in the south central United States, and furthermore, offer excellent interconnection options for some of the largest global enterprises that depend on fast connections to customers and partners to meet their business needs," said Karl Strohmeyer, president, Americas Equinix.
