Colo Atl has announced that PacketFabric’s Software-defined Networking (SDN) based network platform is now available at its downtown data center location. A NantWorks company and provider of next-generation Ethernet-based cloud networking services, PacketFabric can now easily interconnect with network service providers with no monthly recurring cross-connect fees within the Colo Atl Meet-Me Area (MMA). The collaboration also enables seamless access to the platform for Colo Atl’s enterprise, cloud and XaaS provider customers.

“As a carrier-neutral facility offering key interconnection opportunities with no monthly recurring cross connect fees, Colo Atl is an ideal partner for PacketFabric in the Atlanta market,” comments William Charnock, CEO of PacketFabric. “Colo Atl’s strategic location is critical to further extending the PacketFabric network and providing more customers with access to scalable, next-generation cloud networking services and simplified provisioning and maintenance of network infrastructure.”

PacketFabric’s fully automated network platform enables instantaneous, direct and secure provisioning of terabit-scale connectivity between any of the 128 locations on its network. PacketFabric customers can dynamically design and quickly deploy any network configuration leveraging an advanced Application Program Interface (API) and web-based portal for unmatched visibility and control over their network traffic and services. Real-time analytics and interactive troubleshooting capabilities allow PacketFabric to offer the robustness of a packet-switched network, while ensuring consistent and reliable performance.

“PacketFabric is an excellent addition to our Colo Atl family,” states Tim Kiser, owner and founder of Colo Atl. “Here at Colo Atl, in addition to our highly qualified staff, outstanding customer support, and critical interconnection opportunities, we aim to provide our customers with industry-leading infrastructure and solutions that will meet their considerable data demands. PacketFabric’s innovative cloud networking platform’s ability to deliver hundreds of terabits per second of on-demand connectivity surely fits the bill.”
