<div dir="ltr"><div class="gmail_default" style="font-family:verdana,sans-serif;color:#444444">Hi there, "ML" from France. When I worked in the Boston area, several years ago, the more significant data centers were outside of Boston. I'm thinking of the Equinix locations in Billerica and Waltham. From a simple Google search, it looks like there are more options than I remember.</div><div class="gmail_default" style="font-family:verdana,sans-serif;color:#444444"><br></div><div class="gmail_default" style="font-family:verdana,sans-serif;color:#444444">Ultimately, we went with ColoSpace - <a href="https://www.firstlight.net/colospace-is-now-firstlight/">https://www.firstlight.net/colospace-is-now-firstlight/</a>. They've recently been acquired by FirstLight. The interesting thing about ColoSpace is that they lease several rows within the larger data center, and then will provide their customer with individual cabinet space. So, you could essentially have infrastructure in multiple locations, if you need it, and yet have one vendor to deal with.</div><div class="gmail_default" style="font-family:verdana,sans-serif;color:#444444"><br></div><div class="gmail_default" style="font-family:verdana,sans-serif;color:#444444">All the best with that project.

<br>
I’m running a hosting company in Europe and I’m planning to go to the Boston area end of September to scout some datacenters for expansion into the USA. Which locations do you like/dislike? I’m also taking commercial contacts off list on my pro email (ml _at_ <a href="http://shrd.fr" rel="noreferrer" target="_blank">shrd.fr</a>) if any here to arrange the visits.<br>
<br>
BR, ML<br>
