UnitedLayer again expands its footprint in their current location at 200 Paul Avenue, a Digital Realty Trust (NYSE:DLR) Facility. Earlier this quarter UnitedLayer announced expansion thru power upgrades in their existing datacenter, now UnitedLayer is leasing a Turn-Key Datacenter™ from Digital Realty Trust that supports up to 3,000 additional servers and features state-of-the-art power and cooling architecture that has been optimized for green operation in addition to being physically secure. UnitedLayer has extended its lease commitment at 200 Paul through 2018.
Throughout the last half of 2007, UnitedLayer has continually added to their footprint of strategically placed datacenters located throughout North America positioning them for explosive growth in 2008. The focus is on solidifying their presence as an industry leader in providing scalable Internet infrastructure solutions to businesses worldwide. The continued expansion inside the highly sought after 200 Paul Avenue facility will uniquely position UnitedLayer to serve the incredible demand seen for managed colocation services in this specific address.
Richard Donaldson, UnitedLayer’s VP of Sales, Marketing and Development says, “The overall US economy is good, however, the demand for internet infrastructure services seems nearly insatiable. Our 100% uptime record for the past few years and our proven ability to help companies scale and succeed online is a testament to the value that UnitedLayer provides. Thus, our continued expansion inside one of the internet’s key strategic physical addresses allows us to optimally serve the ongoing demand for our services.”
“UnitedLayer is a growing company, and we are excited that they are expanding in one of our key properties, 200 Paul Avenue in San Francisco. 200 Paul is consistently at the top of the list for companies wanting to connect to the Internet’s backbone, and we are pleased to see that demand be captured by one of 200 Paul’s most active tenants,” says Brent Behrman, Vice President at Digital Realty Trust.
“Digital is simply the best in the industry to work with, hands-down. Their business philosophy is one of transparency, and that aligns well with UnitedLayer’s Technocratic Oath, thus we view Digital Realty Trust not only as a landlord but more as a truly valued business partner,” says Arman Khalili, CEO of UnitedLayer.
