Internap Network Services Corporation (AMEX:IIP), a
leading provider of performance-based routing solutions over the
Internet, announced that its Seattle data center would be the location
of its newest expansion efforts. The announcement comes on the heels
of additional build-outs in Boston and New York, which were initiated
to meet the growing demands of clients in those metropolitan markets.
Completion of the proposed Seattle expansion is expected in early
2007.
Internap(R) will support the Seattle colocation expansion with
enhancements to its underlying data center infrastructure, as well as
a dedicated network operations center and sales team. The new space
will also give Internap the ability to provide more access to its
proprietary Performance IP(TM) service, which provides optimized
Internet connectivity. The company's strong service level agreements
(SLAs) and carrier neutral approach will be marketed to help fill the
additional space.
"I believe customers value our flexible approach to colocation and
find that it complements our premium IP and route optimization
services," said James P. DeBlasio, chief executive officer of
Internap. "This expansion allows us to accommodate the market's growth
by offering the best possible environment for providing high-value
Internet connectivity."
In addition to colocation and Performance IP, Internap data center
solutions include managed security and managed router services.
According to Gartner, North American hosted and managed colocation
services will experience 14.8 percent and 16.4 percent growth
respectively, during the next 12 months. Market drivers include voice
and data convergence, as well as the increase of virtualized operating
systems that will require optimization through the network, among
others.
