GTT Communications, Inc. (NYSE: GTT), the leading global cloud networking provider to multinational clients, announced today that it has expanded its relationship with Equinix, the global interconnection and data centre company, to provide direct network connectivity across three Equinix Cloud Exchange™ locations in Europe. This deployment enables GTT to deliver enhanced connectivity to cloud service providers for its end user clients in Europe. GTT’s new Equinix Cloud Exchange locations include Paris, Frankfurt and Amsterdam, complementing its existing deployments in London; Ashburn, Virginia; and Silicon Valley. GTT’s European clients can now take advantage of private, secure and flexible network connectivity to cloud service providers of their choice, rather than connecting via the public internet. Clients can choose from point-to-point Ethernet or VPN connectivity, depending on their unique network architecture requirements. “GTT continues to expand its capabilities to deliver private and secure global connectivity to the cloud,” said Rick Calder, chief executive officer, GTT. “We provide an environment where cloud resources are tightly integrated with GTT’s private network, delivering guaranteed performance and reliable access to the resources, services, applications and partners that our clients require.” Existing Equinix members will also be able to leverage GTT’s global network that spans 250+ global PoPs, to interconnect with other Equinix Cloud Exchange locations worldwide. “GTT’s expansion into three new European Cloud Exchange sites is beneficial for its clients as well as the Cloud Exchange ecosystem of partners,” said Jim Poole, vice president, global ecosystem development, at Equinix. “We look forward to continued growth with GTT through future Cloud Exchange deployments in Singapore and Zurich.” About GTT GTT’s global Tier 1 IP network enables clients to connect to any location in the world and with any application in the cloud. Our cloud networking services provide a better way for multinational clients to reach the cloud. Clients trust us to deliver secure solutions with simplicity, speed and agility.
