Global Data Center Services Provider CyrusOne Releases New Case Study Highlighting CARFAX Deployment of New IT Footprint

Global data center services provider CyrusOne (News - Alert) (NASDAQ:CONE) announces the availability of a new complimentary case study featuring a data center solution provided to CARFAX, America's leading provider of vehicle history reports for used cars and light trucks.

"This case study details how CARFAX sought an innovative multi-site colocation solution to meet its rapidly expanding IT infrastructure needs required to manage expanding volumes of data. The solution selected relieves CARFAX of the operational elements of running their own data centers so they can concentrate more resources on growing their business," said Scott Brueggeman, chief marketing officer at CyrusOne.

Prior to working with CyrusOne, CARFAX hosted its website in two company-owned data centers. The CARFAX website delivers about 800 million reports and search results per year. In order to support its expanding operations and growing IT footprint, the company decided to increase its data center space and distribute its colocation solutions across multiple CyrusOne locations - allowing for the flexibility, redundancy, and reliability necessary to serve CARFAX customers.

"As a business, CARFAX is very entrepreneurial, very fast-paced," said Joedy Lenz, chief technology officer of CARFAX. "We make and implement decisions quickly, and our technology has to keep pace with those fast decisions, to support our business growth. In looking for a colocation provider, we knew CARFAX needed more than just a company offering data centers with abundant space, power, and cooling. We needed a provider who would be a partner in our success, with the flexibility and service capabilities to make quick changes to support our IT footprint."

CyrusOne, with its unique combination of top-tier facilities, connectivity capabilities, and industry-leading customer service, has proven to be a highly reliable data center provider for CARFAX. CARFAX is currently deploying multiple IT environments in CyrusOne data centers that when completed are expected to handle all of CARFAX's customer-facing products.
