(Gawkwire.com) – Seattle colocation provider, CoreLink Data Centers, LLC, a leading provider of high quality, Tier 3 Data Centers, with co-location facilities in Chicago, Phoenix, Seattle and Las Vegas, announced today, that it has added a second data center to the Seattle market. CoreLink has entered into a long term lease for a 39,000 square foot facility which is currently configured with 13,000 square feet of raised floor. Utilizing 6 MW of total dedicated power, CoreLink will modify the existing infrastructure to bring it up to CoreLink’s typical 2N configuration and 150 to 200 watts per square foot of useable UPS power. As is typical of CoreLink designed data centers, the design is flexible to accommodate varying levels of density requirements from low to high density. The completed facility plan delivers up to 25,000 square feet of useable raised floor, providing ample space for expansion for CoreLink’s existing and future customers. The site is in Tukwila, WA and is located adjacent to CoreLink’s existing Seattle colocation facility (SEA01) which is presently 90% occupied. The location is situated close to the Seattle-Tacoma International Airport as well as downtown Seattle.
CoreLink also announces the signing of an anchor tenant for their second Seattle colocation facility (SEA02). WTS, the leading provider of hosting, managed disaster recovery, and IT infrastructure services for Oracle’s JD Edwards EnterpriseOne and World products, has entered into a long term agreement to co-locate in the new facility. “We are very pleased to have partnered with CoreLink Data Centers”, said Tom Hughes, WTS CEO. “After an extensive due diligence process, we selected CoreLink for their operational excellence and the quality of the facility infrastructure. We look forward to working with CoreLink in their multiple locations as our needs expand.”
“The demand in the Seattle market is robust and CoreLink has experienced considerable success there over the last two years” said Geoff Hampson, CoreLink CEO. “We have assembled an experienced and proven management, sales and operations team and that investment has continued to pay off as is evidenced by our expansion in Seattle and other markets.”

(The Hosting News) – Innovative billing software and customer care product provider MetraTech (http://www.metratech.com) is celebrating a new client in the form of Nervogrid – an Information Technology (IT) service provider for the SME sector. Nervogrid has chosen the market leader’s flagship product MetraNet as the billing solution for its Desktop-as-a-Service (DaaS) offerings. MetraNet’s unique dynamic business modelling-based building system will forge the way for Nervogrid to offer fully-managed, secure and performance-guaranteed IT services to businesses within a range of industries whilst employing a pay-as-you-go model.
“We need to be able to quickly syndicate a wide variety of IT services from a diverse set of vendors and provide our clients a high level of automation in a cost-efficient, pay-as-you-go model,” said Aleksi Partanen, Chief Executive Officer of Nervogrid. “Most of the billing solutions we looked at are very rigid and don’t come close to providing the flexibility and scalability that our billing platform requires. MetraNet was the only settlement, customer care and billing system that could map into our SOA Service Delivery Platform and dynamically deliver the change management necessary to service our clients both today and over time.”
MetraTech’s billing software will merge with Nervogrid’s DaaS offerings and allow businesses to focus on their core expertise and use the ‘cloud’ as a virtual IT infrastructure. Clients can outsource the management of business applications, desktop infrastructure services and datacenter services to Nervogrid. All these IT services are centrally-produced and managed in Nervogrid’s datacenters and delivered to customers over a network. Services are subscription-based and clients only pay for what they use, whether it is by the number of users, worksites or gigabytes.
“It’s exciting to see companies like Nervogrid successfully exploit the power of Cloud Computing,” said MetraTech’s Scott Swartz, Chief Executive Officer of the subscription and cloud billing expert. “The unparalleled flexibility and elasticity of MetraTech’s dynamic business modeling approach is a perfect fit for Nervogrid and other businesses that want to create Cloud Computing and Software-as-a-Service offerings. We are looking forward to working with the Nervogrid team to make their innovative DaaS IT services highly successful.”
