HONG KONG, Dec. 17, 2020 /PRNewswire-AsiaNet/ --

-- BDx and Cogent to provide enhanced services to customers across Asia

Big Data Exchange (BDx) ( https://www.bdxworld.com/ ), a pan-Asian 
carrier-neutral data center cluster, today announced a new partnership with 
Cogent Communications ( 
https://c212.net/c/link/?t=0&l=en&o=3012391-1&h=2229315843&u=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.cogentco.com%2F&a=Cogent+Communications 
) in the company's Singapore (SIN1) data center facility. Cogent Communications 
is among the top three globally ranked carriers specializing in providing IP 
transit, dedicated internet access, ethernet transport, SD-WAN and colocation 
services.

Singapore boasts the highest megawatt per capita globally, and its desirable 
and strategic location in the center of Asia empowers enterprises to access 
Asia-Pacific's most rapidly emerging markets easily. Conversely, the high 
demand for colocation space makes data center availability hard to come by for 
new customers. Acquired by BDx earlier this year, SIN1 is one of the facilities 
still available to service new customers in capacity-constrained Singapore. 

SIN1 houses 1,500 racks with a 6 MW power capacity within 14,400 square meters. 
It has been awarded an UpTime Tier 3 Design Certificate, as well as holding 
SS564 GreenMark Gold Plus, TVRA, ISO27001 and PCI-DSS certifications. 
Construction to add four floors and an additional 8 MW of capacity has also 
started. Upon completion, the SIN1 data center will house a total of 14 MW of 
capacity, making BDx one of the few data centers still able to service new 
customers in Singapore. The purpose-built servers within the SIN1 data center 
enable businesses to gain the robust insights needed to power their digital 
transformation. The BDx 360 portal provides customers with a holistic view into 
their infrastructure from any device or location. 

The addition of Cogent as a new carrier in the BDx SIN1 facility will allow BDx 
customers to benefit from Cogent's extensive footprint, network capabilities 
and range of services. As a leading telecoms carrier, Cogent is available as a 
connectivity option to all BDx customers regardless of the type of colocation 
services they require, along with offering high standards of operations and 
support. 

"This new agreement with Cogent marks the beginning of a strategic partnership 
which we look forward to developing," says Sona Singh, Business Development 
Director at BDx. "We are proud that Cogent has chosen BDx to partner within the 
important Singapore market. Together, we offer an even wider range of services 
for our customers. We are pleased to welcome Cogent into our SIN1 facility and 
look forward to expanding our partnership in the near future."

Cogent chose to partner with BDx because the company provides the widest range 
of flexible, secure, on-demand connectivity options at each of its facilities. 
The SIN1 data center provides critical connectivity for customers looking to 
expand into the Southeast Asian market. Cogent, one of the largest Tier 1 IP 
providers globally, selected BDx due to the company's state-of-the-art 
operations and customer support.
