nLighten, a digital infrastructure platform and a frontrunner in the European data center market, has entered into a strategic partnership with Megaport.
As part of the agreement Megaport will operate a PoP at two of nLighten’s edge data centers, located in Milton Keynes, United Kingdom and Sophia Antipolis, France.
nLighten enterprise customers will benefit from a seamless, fast and cost-efficient connection to a wide choice of private and public cloud services, adding to the colocation, connectivity and onsite services already provided. The cloud on-ramp initiative will allow nLighten customers using the Sophia Antipolis and Milton Keynes edge data centers to easily migrate their workloads to and from the cloud, enabling efficient and cost-effective hybrid IT environments.
Joacim van Collenburg, VP Enabling Services, nLighten, said: “This initiative underscores nLighten’s commitment to supporting our customers’ IT needs every step of the way, in this case by leveraging Megaport’s scalable and cost-effective infrastructure to simplify cloud connectivity at two of our key edge data center locations.”
Michael Reid, CEO, Megaport, said: “Our partnership with nLighten reflects a shared commitment to redefining how businesses connect and thrive.”
The integration of the Megaport PoP at nLighten’s edge data centers in Antibes and Milton Keynes is nearing completion, and both sites are now available for pre-order.
As a vendor-neutral digital infrastructure platform, nLighten is committed to providing customers with diverse cloud on-ramp options and is actively pursuing new partnerships to broaden its market reach and provide maximum customer choice.
