The Challenge<\/strong><\/p>\n

With the evolution in cloud technology, IT infrastructure suppliers are coming under pressure from customers who want to migrate to the cloud and have no interest in running their own data centre.<\/p>\n

For this reason, Atea, as one of Denmark\u2019s leading suppliers of IT infrastructure, is currently working in close co-operation with colocation provider Interxion. The company provides Atea with cooling, power systems and the highest levels of security for their cloud technology and more traditional outsourcing-services demanded by a growing number of businesses.<\/p>\n

\u201cOver the last few years, Atea has adapted to the paradigm shift we are seeing in the market. Our co-operation with Interxion is one of our key differentiators as it keeps us ahead of our competition and means we can respond more quickly to increased demand for data centre power without having to start from scratch,\u201d says Poul B\u00e6rentsen, Director, Data Centre & Cloud Services, Atea.<\/p>\n

Poul B\u00e6rentsen, Director, Data Centre & Cloud Services said, “Our co-operation with Interxion is one of our key differentiators as it keeps us ahead of our competition and means we can respond more quickly to increased demand for data centre power without having to start from scratch.”<\/p>\n

The Solution<\/strong><\/p>\n

Apart from supplying redundant power, cooling and security, Interxion\u2019s data centre at Ballerup, Denmark, has direct links to over 40 connectivity providers and a wide range of IT providers. In this way, Atea can offer its customers a location at the heart of a connectivity hub, giving them maximum flexibility and freedom of choice.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe reason we chose Interxion was mainly its high flexibility and quality. But Interxion\u2019s neutrality is also important for many of our enterprise customers, as it gives them the freedom to choose new suppliers in the future without having to go to the expense of relocating the servers,\u201d said B\u00e6rentsen.<\/p>\n

It is mainly larger businesses who require the outsourcing services provided by Atea through Interxion.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe service larger enterprise companies, e.g. in the financial sector, from our data centre at Interxion. Interxion\u2019s high quality and flexibility are all-important for customers for whom even the smallest downtime or lack of security can have massive business consequences,\u201d B\u00e6rentsen explains.<\/p>\n

In 2010, Atea acquired the hosting company SCT in order to expand its focus within outsourcing services such as storage and backup solutions. SCT was located at Interxion in Ballerup. Following the takeover, Atea maintained its focus on outsourcing services and extended it to businesses with high requirements for both safety and availability.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe purchase of SCT was part of Atea\u2019s business strategy of improving our position within outsourcing and IT infrastructure services. As SCT was already located at Interxion, this allowed Atea to focus and expand our efforts in the high-end market, for instance, the leading financial institutions,\u201d B\u00e6rentsen says.<\/p>\n

Today, Atea manages a number of enterprise companies via Interxion\u2019s data centre, and the number of customers and range of services has grown since cooperation started in 2010. \t<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
