Beeks Financial Cloud expands into second Equinix New York
datacentre
Glasgow, May 14, 2019 -- Beeks Financial Cloud Group Plc, a
leading low-latency Infrastructure-as-a-Service (IaaS) provider for
financial markets, is pleased to announce that it is growing its
portfolio of datacentre locations by deploying in the NY5 New York
datacentre of global interconnection and data centre provider
Equinix. In addition to this, Beeks has extended its current
rackspace in Equinix's LD4 datacentre in London by taking a third
cage.
With presence in a total of eleven datacentres currently, this
move allows Beeks to continue to increase its offering to
customers, supplying the opportunity for further connectivity
options to financial exchanges from the new location.
It also allows the company to scale its current Equinix
footprint by expansion into these particular datacentres, with
Beeks running at nearly 200kva of capacity within Equinix sites.
The Beeks Cloud will now operate within ten Equinix datacentres
globally, providing ultra-low latency hosting and connectivity
within and between these sites.
Russell Poole, Equinix's Managing Director for the UK and The
Nordics, commented, "Beeks Financial Cloud is a key player in our
financial services (FS) ecosystem, and it's great to have them
doubling their footprint in two of our leading FS markets - London
and New York. By expanding in both LD4 and NY5, Beeks can offer its
customers latency in the region of 30 milliseconds between the two
cities - a crucial advantage in the trading world."
Gordon McArthur, CEO of Beeks Financial Cloud, commented, "We
are delighted to strengthen our partnership with Equinix by
expanding in these sites. The London LD4 datacentre has always
proven a popular location for our customers and it is satisfying to
be able to continue to meet this demand by adding our third cage.
An additional New York site will bring further hosting and
connectivity options to our clients."
