Flexential, a provider of colocation, cloud, and connectivity services, has introduced a new 40Gbps IP Bandwidth solution as part of its portfolio of interconnection services. This enhancement enables customers to meet stringent application performance, scalability, and latency requirements without investing in additional hardware. The new capability is now available to both existing and new customers on Flexential’s FlexAnywhere Platform, which encompasses 39 data centers across the United States.

Intelerad, a global provider of enterprise medical imaging solutions, is one of Flexential’s earliest IP Bandwidth customers. Intelerad must maintain uninterrupted operations because it serves over 2,500 healthcare organizations. With an increase in organic sales and the acquisition of seven companies in less than three years, Intelerad’s IT requirements increased. This necessitated the expansion of Flexential’s existing colocation presence in Atlanta, Nashville, and Denver, as well as the establishment of new facilities near newly acquired customers to reduce latency.

Flexential’s FlexAnywhere Blueprint for “Improving Network Performance and Interconnection” allowed Intelerad to attain high-availability, rapid connectivity.

Flexential’s FlexAnywhere platform provides the foundation for customers to design, develop, and deploy hybrid IT solutions. Flexential’s CEO, Chris Downie, stated that the company is perpetually expanding and enhancing its interconnection portfolio to satisfy customers’ demands for agility and scalability. “We believe that interconnection is essential to the success of our customers, so we are enhancing our capabilities to make it simple for them to attain higher bandwidth and accelerate their digital transformation initiatives.”

“We are enhancing our capabilities to make it simple for clients to attain higher bandwidth,” said Flexential’s CEO, Chris Downie.

In addition, the IP Bandwidth enhancement would provide comprehensive Distributed Denial of Service (DDoS) mitigation capabilities to protect the network infrastructure of clients against the rising frequency of attacks on direct Internet connections. The Flexential solution monitors client connections around-the-clock to detect threats and automatically deflects attacks by filtering out and discarding malicious packets, allowing only clean traffic to pass.

Intelerad also utilizes the recently introduced Interconnection Mesh solution from Flexential, which provides robust connectivity for streamlined data center interconnection. This solution allows businesses to establish any-to-any connections, imitating the adaptability of cloud networks. Customers can simply expand to new locations by adding terminals, which connects them instantaneously to the remainder of the mesh.

Flexential’s dedication to enhancing interconnection solutions demonstrates the company’s understanding of the significance of interconnection to customer success. Flexential seeks to empower its customers to build, scale, and prosper in hybrid IT environments by providing faster speeds and facilitating digital transformation initiatives without friction. With the addition of 40Gbps IP Bandwidth, clients can anticipate improved application performance, enhanced scalability, and decreased latency, which will further support their business objectives.
