Introducing Rogers Data Centres

Here’s some big news from Rogers Business Solutions. They launched a new operating unit, Rogers Data Centres, and they are undergoing significant expansion of their data centre business in Western Canada, opening doors to a newly expanded data centre in Edmonton with confirmed plans to open a Western Canada flagship data centre in Calgary in January 2014.

Rogers Data Centres now operates in 14 locations across the country, servicing over 870 small, medium, government and enterprise clients. The expanded Rogers Data Centres Edmonton facility adds approximately 6,000 square feet of newly-constructed raised floor space. Opening in January 2014, the flagship Calgary facility will offer 80,000 square feet of raised space, state-of-the-art and highly efficient cooling systems , world-class security measures, 24/7 support, and will meet Uptime Institute’s Tier III standards.

Because of Rogers Communications acquisition of  BLACKIRON Data, Pivot Data Centres and Granite Networks, this establishes Rogers as a Canadian leader in data centre services. That should make the data center market stand up and take notice.
