Next-generation modular data centre technology and services provider IO has signed a contract with full-service IT consulting company Solugenix.

Under the agreement, IO will provide Solugenix with Data Center as a Service (DCaaS) at IO Phoenix, delivered through its modular technology platform IO Anywhere.

IO Anywhere technology enables organisations to add data centre capacity through a choice of delivery models much faster than traditional data centre deployments and these options include DCaaS delivered in a range of colocation cabinets, shared and dedicated modules, multi-megawatt, customer-dedicated data centres and offerings that are rapidly deployed as a product, which allow companies to operate modular data centres anywhere in the world.

Solugenix CEO Shashi Jasthi said today’s traditional data centres will soon become obsolete when you consider all the benefits modularity has to offer.

"After reviewing a number of solutions, IO’s next-generation modular technology puts us at a significant advantage from a scalability, cost and reliability standpoint, to better support the dynamic needs of our IT customers," said Shashi.
