Cloud, colocation and managed services provider
TierPoint has acquired CxP Data Centers. The company, which has headquarters in St. Louis, Missouri, USA, offers services that "help organizations improve business performance and manage risk". It operates carrier-neutral data centers across the United States. The acquisition extends TierPoint "national data center footprint" and is TierPoint's eighth acquisition. The company now owns and operates data center space in 14 US markets. Financial aspects of the deal were not released.
Jacksonville, Florida-based CxP Data Centers' services extend to hybrid cloud offerings, disaster recovery solutions, infrastructure services and business continuity planning. The company has a "hurricane-resistant" and "ballistic hardened" datacenter which is the "largest colocation facility in northeast Florida". Once fully completed, it will offer around 65,000 square feet of data center space.
“This acquisition is a great fit for TierPoint, expanding upon our growth strategy in Tier 2 markets,” said Jerry Kent, TierPoint’s Chairman and Chief Executive Officer. “We are bringing to Northeast Florida our culture of providing enterprise-grade cloud, colocation and managed services, delivered with local customer service that is second to none.” CxP Data Centers will immediately be branded as TierPoint.
