The alliance addresses dual-continent demand from cloud companies looking for data center space in the U.S. and Europe as well as cloud customers of both companies looking to expand internationally.

CoreSite and Interxion address this demand with 1.8 million square feet in key cloud computing markets such as Silicon Valley, Los Angeles, New York, Northern Virginia, Amsterdam, London, Paris, Frankfurt, Dublin and Zurich in addition to other North American and European locations. The companies offer similar cloud-optimized data center design, including carrier-neutral, network-dense colocation environments, abundant power, greater than 99.999% uptime, and advances in energy-efficiency and security.
Additional synergies include the companies cloud outreach programs, CoreSites CloudCommunity and Interxions cloud hub program. The cloud outreach programs bring together infrastructure (IaaS), platform (PaaS) and software as a service (SaaS) providers, as well as system integrators and network providers. Both companies also offer cloud test-lab and demo environments in select data centers for cloud providers in pre-launch and enterprises with private clouds in beta.
This alliance will also allow the companies to address transatlantic demand from the digital media and content sectors, which have similar requirements for high availability and well-connected data center environments to facilitate the effective aggregation, management and distribution of real-time, online content.
