Telehouse Talks of the Benefits of Colocating in New York

By TMCnet Special Guest
Fred Cannone, Director of Sales and Marketing, Telehouse



Telehouse, a leading provider of data center services, has been offering clients prime colocation space in New York for over 20 years. Why such a focus on the bustling metropolis of New York? Premium colocation space in New York City is in high demand and Telehouse is committed to fulfilling these customer demands in offering value added “Total IT Solutions” both inside and outside our facilities. So why are there more benefits for customers to colocate in New York rather than in neighboring state New Jersey? Here, we will highlight some key reasons why our customers choose to colocate with Telehouse in New York City.

By colocating in New York City, clients enjoy access to a more competitive carrier and network dense environment with lower latency than outside New York City. New York City is at the gateway to one of the largest fiber networks in the world.

With multiple and diverse fiber routes running through the complex underground architecture of Manhattan, it is no wonder so many clients choose New York City for sheer capability and diversity . In choosing colocation providers, a key factor during the decision making process, is not just preferred connectivity vendor availability but the availability of alternative diverse and equally capable carriers for secondary or supplementary circuits. This is the only way to sustain consistent 24/7 connectivity to the data center.

In addition, to complement and enhance this dense network availability described, customers can also benefit from using Telehouse’s robust and popular public peering exchange, New York International Internet Exchange (NYIIX). This is the only exchange in the greater New York City area that has interconnection capacity to a variety of popular local colocation facilities, including 25 Broadway, 85 10th Ave., 111 8th Ave., 60 Hudson St., 7 Teleport Dr., with more to follow. No other peering exchange offers this capability. This is a must add-on for high traffic networks seeking to improve connectivity, average down bandwidth costs and provide traffic routing options.  

In January 2011, Telehouse opened its third New York City data center located in Manhattan’s Chelsea district at 85 10th Avenue. This clearly confirms our commitment to the increasing demand in the New York Metro marketplace.

Chelsea is close enough to benefit from all the geographical advantages of Manhattan but is far enough away from any major tourist or terrorist location that could ignite concern for our clients. Clients enjoy colocation in New York because it's convenient for continued server maintenance, on-site staff management and accessibility. This facility is only minutes away from Telehouse’s famous downtown data center at 25 Broadway, located in the center of the financial district. Our Broadway location is a much sought after and carrier hotels in the USA.

With these two center-city based colocation facilities plus our flagship 162,000 square foot data center located  in the high security TELEPORT Staten Island complex, global and local businesses have access to the best choice for carrier neutral, multiple application capable colocation space. It is this proximity and flexibility that allows Telehouse to offer genuine “Total IT Solutions” at your doorstep, managed and supported by 20 years of experience.

All three New York based data centers are connected domestically and internationally to other data centers including our Paris and London facilities. Telehouse can offer services beyond the reach of local IT service providers because of our impressive global footprint. Couple these huge features with diverse fiber routes to other premium carrier hotels in New York City, such as  60 Hudson and 111 Eight Ave., it becomes clear  that there really is no better place to colocate than in New York City and potentially in a Telehouse facility.

The reception to the Chelsea facility has been overwhelmingly positive, as customers at Telehouse’s 25 Broadway colocation facility have been able to expand and purchase more space in this downtown location. In addition, media and technology companies, of all sizes and requirements, located in the area now have a choice of colocation and connectivity options right where their businesses need it.  

This was a hot property right from the start. As an ex-Lehman Brothers (News - Alert) facility there were plenty of organizations interested in the space because it had all the essential infrastructure features in place. Then Telehouse added all of our premium standardization features transforming it into a world class facility.

Telehouse’s New York facilities are ideal for businesses of all sizes. Telehouse is committed to expanding their clients’ options, and in NYC they have the capability of providing the best solutions. There are clearly more benefits when it comes to colocating in New York rather than New Jersey. Telehouse’s experience and history can show you why.
