What we’ll ask before recommending them
- Is your company planning a technology refresh of on-premise equipment? (Moving your data center off-site can reduce costs by leveraging virtual, cloud-adjacent infrastructure and switching? your spend from CAPEX to OPEX)
- Are you planning to move your on-premise data center to another location? (Colocation can be a good option, saving money on capital expenditures and ongoing costs)
- What is your disaster recovery (DR) strategy and do you know how off-site colocation can play a part in that? (Colocation provides robust backup for on-site outages)
- Do you want flexibility of choice in network carrier selection? (Equinix has more carrier options than any other data center provider on the planet)
- Is your company utilizing or planning to utilize more than one cloud provider? (With Equinix, you can have secure, direct and private connections to multiple cloud providers (such as AWS, Azure, and Google) to operate as a hybrid or multicloud environment.)
- Would a single node on your network providing access to multiple carriers and cloud providers be of value to your company? (With a single rack in an Equinix data center, you can access to more than 1,800 network and 2,900 cloud and IT service providers)
