Sabre Chooses INAP for New Multi-Year IP Services Agreement at INAP's Dallas Data Center


ATLANTA, May 10, 2017 /PRNewswire/ -- Internap Corporation (NASDAQ: INAP), a provider of high-performance data center services including Colocation, Network and Managed Services, and Cloud Services, and Sabre Corporation (NASDAQ: SABR), a leading global technology provider to the travel and tourism industry, today announced a new IP services agreement at INAP's Dallas data center.
