Internap Takes its OpenStack-powered AgileCLOUD to NY

Internap announced the availability of its OpenStack-powered AgileCLOUD at its New York metro area data center in Secaucus, N.J. Opened in early 2014, Internap’s Secaucus facility is a true hybrid data center, offering Internap’s full range of infrastructure services. Customers can seamlessly link AgileCLOUD with bare-metal instances, as well as colocation and managed hosting environments, within the Secaucus facility and across other AgileCLOUD locations.

This is Internap’s fourth OpenStack public cloud location worldwide since its launch in 2014.  Other AgileCLOUD locations Other are Dallas, Montreal and Amsterdam.

“As enterprises increasingly adopt OpenStack for private clouds, they require public cloud platforms that provide the same level of interoperability as well as the performance and reliability needed to deploy their mission-critical applications at scale,” said Satish Hemachandran, senior vice president and general manager, cloud and hosting, at Internap. “Every aspect of Internap’s OpenStack-powered AgileCLOUD is optimized for performance – from dedicated compute CPU options to all-SSD storage, route-optimized networking and powerful management tools – and the continued expansion of our footprint means even better reach and faster application performance for customers.”
