Interxion Acquires Data Centre Business from Vancis


Interxion (News - Alert) Holding NV (NYSE:INXN), ("Interxion"), a leading European provider of carrier and cloud-neutral colocation data centre services, announced today that it has acquired a data centre business from Vancis Holding BV, a leading independent Dutch provider of colocation, cloud & managed services based in Amsterdam's Science Park.

The acquired data centre business is located in the connectivity heart of Amsterdam. As the location where the Amsterdam Internet Exchange was first established, it houses a rich and diverse community of connectivity providers.

"Global businesses today require access to dense connectivity and multiple cloud platforms in order to meet the dynamic requirements of their customers and to drive value," said David Ruberg, Interxion Chief Executive Officer. "Interxion Science Park extends our campus into another dimension of Amsterdam's connectivity community and enhances the value proposition of our Schiphol campus by doubling our carrier and ISP density in one of Europe's primary colocation markets."

The acquired data centre, which is now designated as "Interxion Science Park," is a key connectivity hub for customers that serve The Netherlands and Western Europe. Approximately 75% of its 1,800 sqm of equipped space is utilised, and it has 2.5 MW of customer available power In addition, Interxion has identified options to expand the capacity at the current Science Park facilities.
