The IDC MarketScape assessment recognizes Cogeco Peer 1''s data centres, FastFiber Network™ and hybrid IT solutions, all of which increase the Company''s ability to help Canadian organizations migrate from on-premise facilities to third-party data centres and hybrid environments.
The IDC MarketScape found that over the past two years, many organizations have experienced an increased need for data centres, but are reluctant to build and manage these facilities in-house. Instead, Canadian companies have shifted data centre loads to commercial hosting vendors that offer colocation, managed hosting and cloud services.
"Technology leaders are shifting away from corporate-run data centres and placing workloads with commercial providers," said Mark Schrutt, Vice President, Services and Enterprise Applications, IDC Canada. "Cogeco Peer 1 has positioned itself as a leader in the Canadian market and now has one of the strongest sets of data centre and network assets in the country. It works closely with its clients to scale quickly, leverage IT as an enabler rather than an inhibitor of growth, and provides the world-class performance needed to become front-runners in the marketplace."
