Zayo Group has unveiled its updated cloud portfolio to complement its base of infrastructure and connectivity services. The post-Latisys integration relaunch provides customers with a full product set, which includes private, public and hybrid infrastructure-as-a-service (IaaS) cloud services in the U.S. and Europe. This encompasses high-performance, scalable, virtualised and non-virtualised compute and storage on a compliance audit-ready platform.
Zayo’s strategic expansion is driven by its acquisition of Latisys, with additional capabilities from cloud platforms obtained through the AtlantaNAP and Neo acquisitions. Zayo’s portfolio of cloud services includes a host of value-added managed services that can be layered on to custom tailored solutions for added performance, security, scalability and continuity. These services include security services such as managed firewall, threat management and log management, performance services, such as load balancing, monitoring and database management and a variety of storage and backup solutions, including fully featured disaster recovery as a service (DRaaS).
According to IDC, the growth of public cloud IaaS workloads surpassed the growth of on-premises workloads for the first time last year. In addition, private cloud is expected to outpace public cloud in the coming years because of additional security and delivery options. Many enterprises opt for a hybrid of public and private cloud solutions, using public cloud for non-sensitive data and operations and private cloud for sensitive data that requires additional control and security.
“The rapid adoption of cloud services makes Zayo's expansion into this market a natural extension of our bandwidth infrastructure business,” said Chris Morley, COO and president of Cloud and Connectivity at Zayo. “Through acquisition and investment, we have built a set of private and hybrid cloud solutions that are compelling in their own right and even more so when combined with our extensive fiber and data center facilities.”
