Interoute Virtual Data Centre takes its IaaS cloud platform global.
Interoute has launched a new Interoute Virtual Data Centre (VDC) zone in New York in a move that will further expand its cloud services globally. With latency as little as 68ms[1] between Interoute's London and New York VDC zones, users of Interoute's IaaS (Infrastructure as a Service) platform have the benefit of a low latency, globally distributed cloud at their fingertips.
Interoute CTO, Matthew Finnie, commented, "European developers and businesses with their sights set on the US need more than just a data centre to effectively gain a foothold there. They need a networked cloud to give them the speed and performance to compete. Interoute VDC provides massively distributed cloud architecture, globally, and we've thrown in the network for free. Opening our first US zone in New York is part of Interoute's expansion beyond our European base, following the launch of our Hong Kong zone earlier this year."
