It’s no secret that cloud adoption has been on the rise globally, and as such, EdgeConneX has fortified its cloud ecosystem with over seven new cloud partnerships just this past year. Continuing with the theme of ensuring its customers have the very best cloud options, EdgeConneX just announced that Telia Carrier has expanded its network within the EdgeConneX Edge Data Center in San Diego, providing the lowest latency connectivity for cloud, IoT and content providers to support the competitive SoCal market. In addition, according to 451 Research, San Diego is becoming a hotbed for start-ups, which further drives the need for more cloud and managed services.
