IP-Converge expands operations facilities to new location

IP Converge Data Center Inc. , an Internet data center and cloud services provider, expanded its operations to a new facility in Bonifacio Global City in Taguig City. The expansion seeks to "meet the country's increasing demand for data center co-location services," the company said in a statement to the Philippine Stock Exchange Tuesday. "Cloud computing will soon be a standard model for business operations in the Philippines. Through this, enterprises will see increased productivity, cost savings, faster time to market, and the leverage needed to be at par with global players," said Reynaldo Huergas, IP-Converge president. Cloud computing is the delivery of applications, infrastructure, or computing platforms as a service using shared data centers on the Internet, rather than as a product. The facility — tagged as the IPC Data Center BGC — is an expansion of IP-Converge's first Internet Data Center in RCBC Plaza in Makati City. Both data centers are telco-grade, carrier-neutral facilities that feature full infrastructure and telecommunications redundancy. — CMA/VS, GMA News
