NextiraOne has selected Equinix’s LD5 International Business Exchange™ (IBX®) as the primary data center to support the roll-out of its new modular private cloud infrastructure portfolio.


NextiraOne’s latest cloud offering ??? FlexSuite ??? uses FlexPod, a private cloud infrastructure designed to enhance hardware utilisation from 15 to 85 percent, allowing superior high-speed scalability. The cloud solution is designed for unified enterprise and cloud software applications, as well as internal and external IT-based services.

NextiraOne is extending its partnership with Equinix because of the network-rich environment and dense ecosystem of enterprise and cloud providers it will have access to in LD5.

With NextiraOne’s presence, Equinix customers can benefit from access to improved hardware utilisation and provide scalable cloud services. NextiraOne also aims to replicate the data center partner model across new markets, meaning Equinix’s EMEA customers can also gain access to this new cloud model and its many benefits.

According to IDC, IT organizations are viewing converged systems as a method to simplify management and increase time to value. FlexSuite addresses this market demand by enabling power consumption, capacity and usage, to be flexed up or down according to business requirements. Furthermore, the modular cloud service brings network, computer and storage functions together in a single cabinet, improving efficiency.

Equinix’s ecosystems include more than 800financial services businesses, over 450 content and digital media businesses and more than 950 cloud service providers, as well as a wide range of enterprises and over 900 network service providers.
