What is interconnection?

Interconnection is direct, private traffic exchange between two or more parties, inside a carrier-neutral colocation data center, where distributed IT infrastructure components can be assembled. In an age when reams of information race around the world with the click of a finger and massive transactions routinely occur several times faster than the blink of an eye, interconnection is the engine that powers digital business.

How does a company like Equinix grow our revenue 76 quarters in a row?

At Equinix we understand that partners are at the center of this winning streak. During our fourth quarter 2021 earnings call, our CEO said, “We have line of sight for channels to grow to 50% of our bookings in the coming years, as we enhance our systems and processes, and leverage our diverse set of partners to scale our reach.” Our sales team, and indeed, all of us, understand that “Equinix plus two partners equals a deal.” It’s a particularly effective approach that we call the “Power of Three.” 

Equinix is an ecosystem company, through and through. We’ve spent 20 years building up connections (physical, virtual and otherwise) with the thousands of networks that make our digital world flow, from clouds and enterprises to wireless and wireline carriers. 

In addition, we’re fortunate to be a trusted provider for nearly 10,000 customers who put digital capabilities at the center of their own businesses. This is all part of our mission to help digital leaders interconnect to the people, places and possibilities they need to succeed.  

As we continue to grow our network and customer ecosystems, we are also focused on nurturing our relationships with two additional ecosystems: specialized hardware and the wild world of software.
