In EMEA, Interxion, a Digital Realty company, has been named number one in the Cloudscene rankings for the third consecutive Leaderboard.  This sustained leadership position was propelled by new subsea connections, including Crosslake Fibre connecting London and Paris, and the 6,600-kilometer extension of the Dunant subsea cable between Paris and Virginia in the U.S. as well as the addition of coverage and connectivity in new markets including Greece and Croatia.

In North America, Digital Realty ranked second on the Cloudscene Leaderboard, reflecting the company’s well established presence in the region, recently enhanced with the addition of the Westin Building Exchange, the primary interconnection hub for the Pacific Northwest, as well as a new, densely interconnected colocation facility in downtown Toronto and the recent expansion of its Santa Clara campus serving Silicon Valley.

Digital Realty also ranked second in Latin America, driven by the continued organic growth of Ascenty, a Digital Realty and Brookfield Infrastructure joint venture company.  Ascenty now offers access to 27 data centers with more than 250 megawatts of IT load capacity either fully built out or under construction.  In Asia, Digital Realty moved up three spots to number seven, driven by strong organic growth within the region and the continued success of MC Digital Realty, a joint venture with Mitsubishi Corporation.
