InteleNet Taps Chicago-Based Stargate Data Center

InteleNet Communications, a Managed Data Holdings Company, in colocation, managed services and on-demand managed hosting services based in Southern California, announced improvements in the delivery of data replication, virtualization and disaster recovery services. The improvement comes with MDH’s recent acquisition of the Chicago-based Stargate data center.

"This acquisition by our parent company translates into additional flexibility and security for our customers," said Carlos Oliveira, General Manager of InteleNet. "It also allows InteleNet to build on its reputation as a premier, high-density colocation and managed services provider in Southern California that can serve customers nationwide with a secure and redundant infrastructure."

Located in Oak Brook, Ill., a suburb of Chicago, Stargate is a leader in Global IT infrastructure services. Founded in 1989, Stargate offers premium colocation, dedicated server solutions and an expansive 86,000-square-foot data center facility.

"Stargate represents an important cornerstone of our three data centers, including InteleNet in Irvine, in creating solid, secure high density IT infrastructure services," said Peter Stevenson, Chief Executive Officer of Managed Data Holdings. "With the advancement of virtualization, we now have the capability to utilize data center assets across the country to broaden our data management offerings here in Southern California. InteleNet is uniquely positioned to offer a comprehensive suite of power-rich colocation, multi-site performance-based IP routing, disaster recovery solutions, scalable managed services, and managed hosting."

Multiple cross-country data centers operated by one company provide businesses with a secure data storage environment, increased efficiency and a clear path for future growth requirements through virtualization, and strengthened data recovery. Most importantly, InteleNet is contributing to IT professionals looking to contain costs and reduce capital expenditures.

Stargate is the most recent data center acquisition for Virginia-based Managed Data Holdings, making it the third location now operated by the privately held firm. In addition to Stargate, Managed Data Holdings boasts a growing and impressive portfolio of state-of-the-art data center facilities including InteleNet Communications in Irvine, Calif., as well as Data393  in Englewood, Colo. The three facilities bring a combined total of more than 197,000 square feet of data center facility space to Managed Data Holdings. Upon completion of SAS70 Type II certification in Chicago, all Managed Data Holdings data centers will be SAS70 Type II certified.
