BT Opens Second Hosting Facility in NYC

New facility to add 30% to the vendor's hosting capacity in Manhattan.

BT has just opened a new data center hosting facility in New York City. The new location, which increases the company's hosting space in Manhattan by 30 percent, is geared toward financial services firms that want to colocate servers near the exchanges and trade execution venues downtown.

This new facility supplements BT's existing New York metro data center as well as those in London, Chicago, Frankfurt, Paris, Hong Kong, Singapore, Tokyo, and Sydney.

Hosting customers will be able to use Radianz Ultra Access, BT's low-latency connectivity service, which the company says reduces round-trip delay to less than one millisecond and is designed to readily accommodate future growth in data traffic. The OPRA (Options Prices Reporting Authority) consolidated datafeed is also directly accessible at this location.
