Digital Realty has announced the deployment of Amazon Web Services (AWS) Direct Connect 100Gbps capability at the company’s Westin building exchange in Seattle and on its Interxion Dublin campus in Ireland, bringing one of the fastest AWS Direct Connect capabilities to PlatformDIGITAL.
Digital Realty’s platform connects 290 centres of data exchange with over 4,000 participants around the world, enabling enterprise customers to scale digital business and interconnect distributed workflows on a first of its kind global data centre platform.
Tom Sly, General Manager, AWS Direct Connect, said: “As emerging technologies such as AI, VR and Blockchain move from the margins to the mainstream, enterprises need new levels of performance from their hybrid solutions. Deploying AWS Direct Connect at 100Gbps at Digital Realty facilities in Seattle and Dublin is critical to our strategy of helping customers build more sophisticated applications with increased flexibility, scalability and reliability. We’re excited to see the value Digital Realty’s PlatformDIGITAL delivers for our mutual customers.”
When coupled with the availability of AWS Direct Connect 100Gbps connections, the Westin building exchange and Interxion Dublin campuses become ideal meeting places for customers to tackle data gravity challenges and unlock new opportunities with their AWS Outposts deployments.
