C&W Worldwide, Equinix to deliver Cloud Capabilities for Global Enterprises
Cable&Wireless Worldwide is collaborating with Equinix Inc. to become a one-stop shop for global enterprises that require best-of-breed data centre services. This collaboration is believed to strengthen C&W Worldwide’s existing cloud capabilities and will be a springboard from which the company is said to deliver a comprehensive suite of data centre services, such as co-location, managed hosting and cloud computing services to global customers.
Nick Lambert, MD, Wholesale, Mid-markets & Global Markets, C&W Worldwide said, "Telcos are natural providers of enterprise-class infrastructure services. Our ambition is to create an ecosystem of best-of-breed solutions from different service providers that can deliver a flexible and risk free cloud computing roadmap for customers. Equinix is the ideal company for us to collaborate with because its footprint of data centres closely aligns with our global network. Both companies share a complementary vision to deliver reliable, on-demand services that will enable some of the largest organisations to transit into a world-class cloud computing and communications environment."
Samuel Lee, Equinix President, Asia Pacific said, "Our global relationship with Cable&Wireless Worldwide is a testament to the value of Platform Equinix for enabling network service providers to easily expand their service reach to access new revenue opportunities. As part of our growing network ecosystem of more than 680 network service providers, C&W Worldwide has access to our global platform of 99 data centres, while customers have a broad choice of best-in-class network providers to meet their telecommunications needs."
