Windstream extends fiber to Georgia data centers

Windstream Wholesale has expanded its fiber network to two prominent data centers, Ascent and Stack, located in Alpharetta, Georgia. 

By seamlessly integrating its operations into the Ascent data center located at 4905 North Point Parkway and the Stack Data center located at 3200 Webb Bridge Road, both in Alpharetta, Windstream Wholesale has effectively tailored its services to meet the requirements of this valued customer. This network expansion not only highlights Windstream Wholesale’s flexibility but also positions the company to offer diversity advantages to future customers in the thriving Atlanta market.

To secure the initial customer deal, Windstream Wholesale proposed innovative route designs tailored to the specific requirements of the data center locations. This proactive approach, combined with close customer collaboration, ensured the successful implementation of the customer's connectivity solution.

“We invested the necessary time to work with the customer, actively listening to their needs and delivering the optimal routing solution,” said John Nishimoto, senior vice president of product, strategy and marketing at Windstream Wholesale. “Our initial deal facilitated the customer’s success and enabled us to bring these new data centers on-net. Leveraging different paths for the two routes enhances the value proposition and positions Windstream Wholesale as a one-stop-shop for diverse multi-vendor route solutions.”
