“CoreSite’s Boston data center is one of the most interconnected buildings in New England today, offering access to leading cloud, IT and network providers, like TOWARDEX,” said Matt Gleason, VP General Management for CoreSite. “With the completion of this additional utility entrance, CoreSite continues to expand our already robust connectivity ecosystem with new telecommunications providers and networks.”
During the development of the Hub Express System, TOWARDEX and CoreSite collaborated to enable open access entry into the data center by all interested telecommunications providers in a competitively neutral and nondiscriminatory environment. The companies constructed a new utility entrance and lateral trench, installing 68 conduits as well as building penetrations for fiber optic cables.

“Data centers today are clamoring to create the strongest interconnection ecosystems possible to assist their clients in gaining access to the best of breed carriers, clouds and content providers,” said Gavin Schoch, General Manager of TWDX Infrastructure. “No one could have predicted the skyrocketing data demands placed upon our networks worldwide.

According to Statista.com the volume of data that will be created worldwide is expected to reach nearly 181 zettabytes by 2025.
