BOULDER, Colo.–(BUSINESS WIRE)–
A global webscale provider has selected Zayo Group Holdings, Inc. (ZAYO) for colocation in Zayo’s data center in McLean, Virginia. The data center, acquired in early April, provides a strategic location close to downtown Washington, D.C. and the heart of the Beltway.
“This Northern Virginia location is especially attractive to webscale companies, government agencies, cloud providers and other large enterprises,” said Phil Mottram, Chief Customer Officer. “We are achieving rapid monetization of this asset, and have strong interest from other organizations in multiple sectors, including a financial services provider and an R&D lab.”
The facility, Zayo’s second data center in Northern Virginia, is located at 1764 Old Meadow Lane and is 62,000 total square feet. Zayo plans to upgrade the critical power at the site to three megawatts (MW) and enhance systems resiliency, security, audit certifications, and network connectivity. The data center tethers directly to Zayo’s data center in Ashburn, Virginia and to Zayo’s network point of presence (PoP) on M Street.
