DENVER, Colo.--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- CoreSite, a leading hybrid IT solutions provider and subsidiary of American Tower Corporation (NYSE: AMT) (“American Tower”), announced it is supporting a multinational aerospace and defense company. The company’s current in-house data center is being decommissioned due to obsolete and inefficient systems and lack of public cloud access.

“This use case is one that we are increasingly seeing in enterprise and government-related markets to modernize to a cloud-adjacent, carrier-dense environment,” said Matt Johns, CoreSite’s Regional Sales VP in the Mid-Atlantic region. “Now more than ever organizations are partnering with companies like CoreSite to manage and scale their rapidly changing data and IT requirements so they can focus on their core business. The CoreSite team has a solid track record of working in this industry, and we look forward to supporting the implementation of a hybrid IT strategy for this aerospace and defense company.”

The CoreSite solution includes a comprehensive IT infrastructure deployed in its Northern Virginia data center campus. The colocation environment is equipped with diverse fiber connectivity and direct, native access to all the major cloud providers, ensuring low latency, rapid scalability and improved costs.

In addition to deploying a hybrid IT solution for the defense company, CoreSite securely enables workload migrations to the public cloud and delivers power from 100% renewable energy sources. Through its NIST and SOC compliances at the data center, CoreSite will also meet the heightened physical security requirements of the defense company with an advanced access control security system with motion sensing technology, biometric dual authentication entry requirements and 24x7x365 monitoring by onsite security qualified personnel.

“CoreSite is highly equipped to deliver end-to-end, secure and compliant solutions for the aerospace and defense community,” said Anthony Hatzenbuehler, CoreSite’s SVP of Data Center Operations. “Our purpose-built northern Virginia campus is the ideal location for government agencies and contractors to outsource their data center environments while ensuring the highest levels of connectivity, security and data compliance.”
