Sidera Networks connects fiber network to Latisys data center in Ashburn, VA

Fiber-optic network service provider Sidera Networks says it has added “several” new data centers in Northern Virginia to its roster of network connections. The new data centers include Latisys's new data center campus in Ashburn.

Latisys is a national provider of colocation, managed hosting, managed services, disaster recovery, and private cloud services to medium-sized businesses, enterprise customers, and government agencies. The Latisys-Ashburn campus includes a newly built 71,800-sq-ft data center, plus an adjacent 63,000-sq-ft facility with over 40 megawatts of available power capacity. The company also has facilities in Chicago, Denver, and Irvine, CA.

"We are seeing increasing adoption of high-density computing each year. This, combined with the rising costs of power, is making our data center and colocation services the ideal solution for enterprises from all industries as well as government agencies and service providers," said David Haskell, regional sales director at Latisys-Ashburn. "Sidera's network provides the accessibility, reliability and flexibility we require to ensure top performance of our customers' mission-critical applications."
