Equinix, Inc. has announced that cloud-based enterprise video platform Kontiki has expanded its use of Platform Equinix™ to offer robust, reliable, low latency data delivery to its expanding European customer base.

Expanding to Equinix LD5 International Business Exchange™ (IBX®), one of London’s leading data centre campuses, will bring Kontiki closer to its European customers – enhancing performance, speed of delivery and efficiency to provide video services to enterprises.

This deal provides Kontiki with access to a global value-chain of more than 4,000 potential partners, customers and suppliers of digital services through Equinix Marketplace, providing the company with significant opportunities to accelerate growth.

Operating in Equinix’s network-neutral data centre, Kontiki is also able to take advantage of multiple network providers to achieve optimal performance for customers. Kontiki is the only enterprise video solution that uses existing networks efficiently to enable viewing of live videos and VoD simultaneously by multiple employees, on a global basis, without stalls or crashes.

Kontiki has a longstanding and successful relationship with Equinix, and currently operates three Points of Presence (PoP) in the company’s Silicon Valley IBX data centres, SV1, SV3 and SV5.
