The new property, which will become Equinix's third data center in the Paris market, will have capacity for two phases, the first of which is expected to open in Q2 2009 with a total capital investment of approximately $30 - $35 million.
“We continue to see strong demand for our high quality data center services in the Paris market, which is a strategic interconnection point for Internet traffic in Europe,” said Eric Schwartz, president of Equinix Europe. “This new center is important for the continued growth of our customers in this market as we expect our recently expanded Paris 2 center to be almost fully occupied by the time our Paris 3 center is available for customer installations in the second quarter.”
As previously announced, Equinix will provide an update of its outlook for 2008 and 2009 on its Third Quarter 2008 results call scheduled for October 22, 2008.
