Data Centers Canada and Internap Bring Advanced Services to Canadian IT Market

(WEB HOST INDUSTRY REVIEW) — Turnkey data center solutions provider Data Centers Canada (www.datacenterscanada.com) today announced that it has added Internap’s (www.internap.com) patented Performance IP service to its Toronto area facility, letting it deliver advanced Internet services to Canadian customers.

Data Centers Canada operates, develops and manages Canadian real estate to provide turnkey data center solutions such as co-location and disaster recovery to enterprise customers in Canada. Its facility in the city of Vaughan, near Canada’s most populous city, Toronto, will combine Internap’s optimized IP routing service with its own comprehensive data center solutions to provide an integrated web hosting and delivery solution for Canadian customers that require advanced management and traffic control for high levels of reliability, availability and performance.

“Bringing together the capabilities of Internap and Data Centers Canada creates a powerful package of high-performance data center and Internet routing for Canadian customers,” Internap senior vice president of marketing Peter Evans said in a statement. “The agreement allows customers to deliver the best Internet experience possible — even for the most demanding websites — using advanced technologies that select the optimal network path and carrier at any given point in time.”

These advanced services ensure the optimal delivery of video, VoIP and data applications for bandwidth-intensive and high-transaction websites. Data Centers Canada recently expanded its Toronto North facility and provides state-of-the-art data centers and co-location with advanced security, redundancy and capacity in a carrier-neutral environment.

Internap’s Performance IP optimizes Internet traffic flows by leveraging the company’s patented Managed Internet Route Optimizer (MIRO) technology, which dynamically determines the best path for traffic across multiple Internet backbones based on network performance characteristics instead of the least number of Internet hops. Performance IP is backed by Internap’s 24/7 global support, certified engineers and world-class network operations center.

“Our recently expanded Toronto North facility is ideal for customers seeking co-location, additional data center capacity or who wish to outsource their existing data center. With the addition of Internap’s IP routing service, we can layer on an advanced connectivity offering for the most demanding, transaction-intensive websites across a broad range of enterprises and markets,” said Tony Di Benedetto, managing partner at Data Centers Canada. “This service is ideal for customers who wish to house their data locally in Canada while ensuring an optimal web experience for end users around the world.”
