Colt expands partnership with Equinix in three key regions
Colt Technology Services , a digital infrastructure company , has announced new software-driven connectivity in three countries , expanding its longstanding collaboration with Equinix . Businesses now have access to Colt ’ s On Demand infrastructure interconnecting with Equinix Fabric in Spain , Italy and Sweden , as well as in the UK , Germany , France , the Netherlands , Singapore and Hong Kong . The extended collaboration between Colt and Equinix deepens their longrunning commitment to a global partner ecosystem and meets growing demand across key regions .
The Colt On Demand network interconnects seamlessly and dynamically with Equinix Fabric across Europe and Asia , giving flexible last mile access to Equinix International Business Exchange ( IBX ) data centres and in particular to Equinix Digital Services ; offering businesses choice , diversity and visibility of their infrastructure to help them succeed in today ’ s global digital world .
Colt is seeing a significant increase in the number of On Demand customers who self-provision their network services , with high double-digit revenue growth in 2022 , and this trend is expected to continue into 2023 and beyond .
Mark Hollman , Vice President for Partner Development and Success at Colt , said : “ The network is the catalyst for transformation , for businesses looking to flex , digitalise and stay relevant , but managing this infrastructure can be incredibly complex – especially across multiple countries . Businesses are already facing headwinds in 2023 and the last thing they need is to be held back by lengthy contracts and inflexible services .
“ In this latest evolution of our longstanding partnership with Equinix , we ’ ve invested in joint API development to deliver a simplified , automated and improved customer experience across Colt On Demand and Equinix Fabric platforms . We ’ re really excited to offer this in Spain , Italy and Sweden as well as the existing regions in Europe and Asia , driving extraordinary connections for our customers .” �
