A new state-of-the-art Cogeco Data Services Centre is on track to open in Kirkland, Que. this spring. The 100,000-square-foot facility will be the fifth Cogeco project of its kind in Canada, bringing the company’s total data centre capacity to over 200,000 square feet.

“Cogeco Data Services’ addition of a new ultramodern data centre underlines our unwavering commitment to providing the region’s businesses with access to world-class ICT services that facilitate and improve their operations and service delivery each day,” says Tony Ciciretto, President and CEO of Cogeco Data Services. “This new facility, combined with our wholly-owned network and cloud infrastructure highlights our commitment to continued growth in the Quebec market.”

The modern centre, built to Tier 3 plus standards, will provide Montreal customers with access to secure IT and cloud services, advanced colocation, and a range of other resources. Like other Cogeco Data Services centres, the Kirkland location will provide service on a 24-hour a day, 365-day per year basis.

Four additional Cogeco Data Services Centres are located in the Greater Toronto Area and Barrie, Ont.
