Webair’s NY1 Data Center Achieves OIX-2 Certification
NY1 is the first and only OIX-Certified U.S. data center east of Manhattan.
Webair has announced that its NY1 data center has been awarded OPEN-IX® OIX-2 certification. The facility is the first and only U.S. data center on Long Island and East of Manhattan to meet the stringent requirements of this global standard.
NY1’s OIX-2 certification ensures that the data center’s infrastructure reduces the complexity that restricts interconnection and enables the implementation of business-critical environments, international IP core networks or content platforms. Originally a high-touch managed service provider (MSP), Webair is unique in that it built the physical data center to offer customers reliable and secure hybrid cloud solutions. Since then, it has grown into Long Island’s most secure, fully-redundant data center and the premier facility East of New York City for fully managed enterprise colocation, private and hybrid cloud solutions, disaster recovery and managed services. The facility is also the only OIX-certified U.S. data center East of Manhattan offering access to transatlantic cable and Manhattan Bypass fiber, as well as a host of Internet exchanges and third-party cloud providers. A Tier III-rated data center, NY1 adds OIX-2 to its existing SAS SSAE 16 and HIPAA certifications.
