June 4, 2007 -- (WEB HOST INDUSTRY REVIEW) -- Web hosting and telecommunications provider Primus Telecommunications Canada (primus.ca) announced on Monday that it has opened two additional data center facilities in Toronto and Ottawa, Canada.

The company says it's committed to broadening its data center footprint in Canada to meet increasing customer demand for colocation and managed services. Primus Business Services, a division of Primus Canada, also plans on developing additional data center sites in Canada, with an anticipated opening in early 2008.

The new facilities in Toronto and Ottawa employ environmentally friendly features and design elements such as high efficiency module unlimited power supply systems, high efficiency green transformers, economizers in the cooling system and built-in motion sensors in the lighting system.

"With our existing facilities in Toronto and Ottawa nearing capacity and our business growing rapidly, Primus is opening two new data centers to meet client demand for our managed hosting and system administration services," says A.J. Byers, senior VP of Primus Business Services. "In our effort to strengthen Primus' commitment to environmental sustainability, and manage spending for our customers as the cost and usage of power increases, our new data centers have been designed to reduce power consumption and the impact on the environment."

Primus Telecommunications recently sold the assets of domain registrar PlanetDomain to NetRegistry for over $8 million.
