"The Northern Virginia market is one of the top three data center markets in the world according to Ovum's global data center tracking information," states Mike Sapien , principal analyst from Ovum Global Enterprise Services. "Enterprise customers are seeing improved economics in using outside data centers, as well as avoidance of the capital to upgrade their aging private data centers. The use of external third-party data centers are necessary to address expanding their global coverage, increased use of cloud services, and improving application performance."
"Cloud-based services and mobile applications are increasingly critical to an organization's ability to focus on core initiatives while driving efficiency and growth. Successful use of these new technologies requires a thoughtful network strategy with direct access to networked data center facilities as a core component," said Paul Savill , senior vice president of Core Product Management for Level 3.
