Alliance Deepens AT&T NetBond® Ecosystem with New Deployments Planned Across Expanded Data Center Network

AT&T and Digital Realty are broadening AT&T’s colocation service offerings by expanding their alliance, enabling AT&T to incorporate Digital Realty colocation capacity directly into its solutions. The alliance will span Digital Realty’s global portfolio of data centers, enhancing AT&T’s existing product offerings of network and managed services. This complements AT&T’s existing Colocation Services network of 38 locations in 16 countries.

AT&T and Digital Realty will work together to deliver colocation services. The two companies will also extend AT&T NetBond® , AT&T’s leading cloud connectivity service, to key Digital Realty data centers. This will allow AT&T to extend the reach of AT&T NetBond to existing and new cloud service providers. The deal adds Digital Realty to the robust AT&T NetBond ecosystem. Digital Realty’s data center portfolio is built on a foundation of unrivaled real estate acumen and the company brings this expertise and its ecosystem of network-rich data centers to this alliance.

During 2016, customers will be able to connect to the growing suite of AT&T NetBond cloud service providers from its locations within a Digital Realty data center, bringing more options for cloud connectivity. By utilizing AT&T NetBond for cloud connectivity, customers can improve end-to-end reliability and network security.

“The speed of business growth is outpacing IT. This is driving an insatiable appetite for data center capacity, bandwidth and cloud connectivity,” says René Dufrene, associate vice president, AT&T Mobile & Business Solutions. “This alliance with Digital Realty enables us to extend our product offerings enabled by Digital Realty’s data center footprint and provide highly secure, high-performing and reliable connectivity to business workloads wherever they reside.”

“We have enjoyed tremendous success in working together and today’s alliance announcement highlights the opportunity for both AT&T and Digital Realty to help end-users deploy their IT workloads in our data centers via the colocation program and to provide greater performance, security and control via AT&T NetBond,” said Bill Bradley, senior vice president of Partners and Alliances at Digital Realty. “We are looking forward to working together to deepen our relationship with AT&T, already one of our largest customers, as we continue to build out our network-rich ecosystem of datacenter solutions and network of partners to provide openness and choice to our end-users.”

AT&T NetBond by the Numbers:

  • Ecosystem members (13): IBM, Microsoft, Salesforce, Amazon Web Services, HP, Blue Jeans Network, Sungard Availability Services, VMware, CSC, Box, Equinix, Cisco and Digital Realty

  • More than 30 global cloud provider data center locations

  • 197 countries reached by AT&Ts Multi-protocol Label Switching (MPLS) VPN based services
