PS Lightwave announced that the company will be offering low-latency, high-performance cross connects with Amazon Web Services (AWS) to its customers in four CyrusOne data centres in Houston.
Partnering with CyrusOne enables PS Lightwave to meet growing demands for data centre services, cloud access, interconnection services, disaster recovery and business continuity. The cross-connects are available in CyrusOne’s Houston West I, Houston West II, Houston West III and Houston–Galleria facilities.
This will enable PS Lightwave’s extensive fiber-optic network footprint in Houston to provide a direct connection to AWS, creating resilient, secure, hybrid computing opportunities for business applications and mission-critical data.
“Nine of the top 10 cloud providers are also CyrusOne customers, and this relationship provides PS Lightwave customers the flexibility and scalability desired to interact with the public cloud. Our presence in the CyrusOne data centres allows our customers to be just one cross-connect away to Amazon Web Services from anywhere on our 5,500 miles of fiber in the Houston area,” said DeLisa Williams, senior carrier services executive, PS Lightwave.
CyrusOne data centres provide a resilient, high-performance, cloud-ready infrastructure that supports the efficient processing of data, providing the ideal infrastructure platform for PS Lightwave’s portfolio of services.
