With the close of the transaction, Equinix exits nine markets, including Buffalo, Cleveland, Detroit, Indianapolis, Nashville, Phoenix, Pittsburg, St. Louis and Tampa. Equinix will retain a presence in the remaining seven markets – Chicago, Dallas, New York, Philadelphia, Reston, Seattle and Silicon Valley – where it currently has sufficient capacity to meet customer demand. In addition, the Equinix customers deployed in the 16 data centers have been transferred to 365 Main, and key employees who have experience with these sites have joined 365 Main to facilitate a seamless transition and ongoing support for customers.
“By divesting these data centers in non-core markets, we can focus our capital and management attention on our most productive data centers while ensuring that customers at these sites are supported by an experienced data center operator that will continue to invest in these locations,” said Charles Meyers, president of the Americas for Equinix.
