INAP and Sovrn Announce Expansion of Cloud Hosting Relationship to Silicon Valley

Internationally recognized online advertising technology firm expands INAP partnership for OpenStack-powered bare-metal IaaS offerings

INAP’s Silicon Valley Data Center in Santa Clara, California is chosen as the AgileSERVER hosting site to service the entire western U.S. for Sovrn

ATLANTA and BOULDER, Colo., Nov. 13, 2017 -- Internap Corporation (NASDAQ:INAP), (“INAP” or the “Company”), a provider of high-performance Internet infrastructure, Colocation, Network and Managed Services, and Cloud Services, and Sovrn, an advocate and partner to independent publishers who represent more than 80,000 websites, today announced an expanded cloud hosting agreement.

In August, Sovrn chose INAP, among other large competitors, based upon the Company’s ability to support Sovrn’s continued growth through a cloud agreement at INAP’s New York/New Jersey Metro Data Center. Three months later, Sovrn and INAP are expanding that partnership. This agreement expands this work to the west coast at INAP’s Silicon Valley Data Center in Santa Clara, providing a ky proximity to Sovrn’s partners/publishers.     

INAP will continue to deliver Cloud Services with automated APIs for faster provisioning of computer resources and workloads, delivering data with lower latency and error rates to publishers, all at a competitive price. INAP’s ownership of Tier 3-like data centers, like Santa Clara, was a critical factor for Sovrn as they expanded within a highly competitive environment.

We’re very pleased to grow our cloud hosting relationship with Sovrn following our summer announcement on this initial partnership,” said Peter Bell, SVP INAP Sales. “INAP will support the rapid growth of their platform worldwide with the reliability and elasticity they need.”

“INAP’s excellent network performance including lower latency, as well as competitive pricing, were all deciding factors in extending our relationship with INAP to the strategically important Silicon Valley region,” said Jesse Demmel, CTO of Sovrn.

INAP’s Cloud Services are designed to meet the demands of large-scale, high-performance workloads. More than virtual and bare metal, INAP’s cloud solutions are backed by low-latency IP service for maximum network performance. With INAP’s enterprise-class cloud solutions, companies like Sovrn can meet customization, scalability and security requirements without sacrificing performance or support.
