Continent 8 Technologies has opened a new data centre in the US state of New Jersey, the company’s 10th data centre worldwide.
The Atlantic City facility is incorporated into the company’s global private network with diverse links into northern New Jersey and New York, enabling customers to link back into other markets and locations from which they operate.
In addition to the standard co-location and managed service offerings, Continent 8 is offering customers its DDoS Prevention and Cloud Backup services.
In April the company received its Transactional Waiver from the New Jersey Division of Gaming Enforcement. Michael Tobin, CEO, said: “Prior to the introduction of online gaming regulations, we worked with all facets of the industry in the state to bring a neutral co-location and managed services offering to the market that benefitted all involved.
“As a result Continent 8 has established a hosting centre in one of the licensed premises in Atlantic City.
“In addition to our growing New Jersey customer base, we can really start marketing our offering to help make Atlantic City a technology hub for the inevitable growth of the online gaming industry in the US,” added Tobin.
