Internet exchange (IX) operator DE-CIX and colocation provider H5 Data Centers say they have partnered to offer expanded services at H5’s 325 Hudson Street, New York facility. The team mates say they can combine to offer very attractive colocation and connectivity options leveraging Hudson Street and DE-CIX New York’s IX capabilities to companies expanding or relocating their data center and colocation services requirements.

The combination will provide “unsurpassed” access to content, cloud, carrier, application, and service provider networks, DE-CIX and H5 say.

“Direct cloud connectivity and fortified Internet capabilities are top requirements for companies sourcing colocation and data center facilities in New York,” commented Josh Simms, owner and CEO of H5 Data Centers. “DE-CIX New York’s local platform at 325 Hudson offers peering, cloud connectivity, private user group connections, and more.
