Verizon's acquisition of Terremark in January of 2011 created an extensive network of nearly 50 state-of-the-art data centers. To meet increasing demand for secure, enterprise-class cloud computing across the globe, Verizon Terremark accelerated the deployment of the platform to two additional facilities across the Company's portfolio.
By having data centers located across geographies, businesses can take advantage of diverse connectivity for each region through a plug-and-play model with access to a large selection of major global carriers. This allows for a competitive marketplace of connectivity that can control bandwidth costs while allowing the enterprise to freely select connectivity based on its business needs.
Additionally, proximity of the data center to the location of operations for the enterprise can impact application performance. Having critical infrastructure deployed in target markets can reduce latency and improve application performance.
Each data center offers a comprehensive set of IT solutions, where businesses can take advantage of the benefits of a hybrid deployment. Many businesses choose to adopt cloud by putting a portion of their workloads in the cloud and the rest on traditional environments. Verizon Terremark offers colocation, cloud and managed hosting to provide the right combination of options addressing the different needs of the enterprise.
Because of the geographical disbursement of Verizon Terremark's global network of cloud-enabled data centers, businesses can seize the opportunities this creates applicable to speed and cost. Learn more about all of the recently announced Verizon Terremark cloud enhancements.
