CoreSite Realty Corporation, a provider of network-dense, cloud-enabled data center solutions, has expanded its relationship with NTT (News - Alert) Communications Corporation.

Thanks to the expansion, NTT Communications will be able to scale its offerings to large content companies, internet service providers (ISPs) and enterprises, increasing its access to CoreSite's growing community of customers. In turn, CoreSite customers will benefit from a direct link to NTT Communications' (News - Alert) Global IP Network, with more connectivity options across the CoreSite Mesh.

"The facilities we choose to connect into directly impact the growth of our customer base," said Michael Wheeler (News - Alert), executive vice president, NTT America, in a statement.

Wheeler said that NTT Communications has had a successful relationship with CoreSite in Los Angeles and Chicago.

“We are excited to expand our presence in those locations, and extend our footprint with CoreSite (News - Alert) into Silicon Valley and Northern Virginia in order to reach a broad community of internet-centric businesses," he said.

Officials with CoreSite Realty Corporation said that the company’s data centers in Silicon Valley, Los Angeles, Chicago and Northern Virginia will provide NTT Communications with access to the CoreSite Mesh, including more than 750 national and international carriers, cloud computing providers, networks, content and service providers, financial trading firms, CDNs and systems integrators.

"NTT Communications operates one of the world's largest Tier-1 global networks," said Jarrett Appleby, COO, CoreSite.

"Today's announcement brings tremendous value to our ecosystem of customers. It delivers direct access to NTT Communications' network through four of our key data center campuses and increases the global connectivity options available to customers across the CoreSite Mesh," said Appleby.

Earlier in June, CoreSite Realty Corporation had announced that XO Communications (News - Alert) would be launching its new XO Compute cloud service from CoreSite's facilities in Northern Virginia and Los Angeles.
