Immedion, LLC, a South Carolina based dedicated data center and managed services provider has expanded its footprint into western North Carolina with the purchase of Netriplex’s Asheville data center operation.
As of Monday Oct 3, Netriplex Asheville will operate as an Immedion Data Center. As part of the acquisition, Immedion will be retaining Netriplex’s highly qualified engineering and support staff.
Netriplex’s 20,000 square-foot Asheville facility expands Immedion’s overall foot print allowing them to service a broader range of customers in western North Carolina and beyond. Like all of Immedion’s facilities, this location will support customers with 24×7 customer service care.
This purchase is in line with Immedion’s overall expansion strategy. The company announced in September their plans to open a Data Center facility in Charleston. The Charleston facility will be complete May 2012. The Netriplex acquisition and the Charleston announcement expands Immedion’s data center footprint from two fully redundant data centers to four. This expansion gives Immedion greater leverage in the southeast region and gives their customers an added level of redundancy.
“We are very pleased to bring Netriplex’s Asheville data center into our growing family of data centers” comments Immedion CEO, Frank Mobley. “Their suite of services, location, and customer focused nature are a perfect fit for Immedion and the way we do business. This venture increases Immedion’s technical depth and gives our customers more disaster recovery and scalability options.”
“The entire Netriplex team is very excited about the merger with Immedion,” states Netriplex’s CEO Jonathan Hoppe. “The cultural similarities between the two companies will allow great synergy for the customers, the market and our employees as we transition into one enterprise. “
