TAMPA, Fla. - Major global businesses rely on the vitality of an information-driven world. With a pressing need to expand geographic reach and establish data centers for web-based information-sharing, securely exchanging critical information is a must, yet at the same time, growing startups like Savtira Corporation, a new provider of B2B eCommerce solutions, are recognizing the benefits of colocating critical equipment as a time and cost savings measure. Today Savtira announced it has selected Equinix as its primary data center provider throughout the U.S. and Europe. Savtira will move its operations into 10 Equinix International Business Exchange (IBX®) data centers and will leverage Platform Equinix as it expands globally. Savtira selected Equinix because of its extensive global reach into key geographic markets and the direct connection opportunity it provides Savtira to potential partners and customers.
