Partnership between Ascenty and Noroestecom boosts data transmission in the states of São Paulo, Minas Gerais, Mato Grosso do Sul and Paraná

Contract between Latin America’s leading data center company, Ascenty, and its partner Noroestecom, expands the performance, connectivity and security of its customers and increases the range of products offered

Ascenty, leader of the Colocation market in Latin America – with 27 dedicated data centers in Brazil, Chile and Mexico, 17 in operation and 10 under construction –, announced a new partnership with its client Noroestecom, a telecommunications company that offers high-capacity, broad coverage transport network infrastructure solutions in the states of São Paulo, Minas Gerais, Mato Grosso do Sul and Paraná.

Started in October, the partnership improves Noroestecom’s resilience in the provision of telecommunications services with support from two Ascenty data centers – one in Campinas and another one in Osasco. “There are gains in performance, connectivity and security, as our connection between Campinas and Barueri is now 100% via optical fiber cables laid underground along the Anhanguera and Bandeirantes highways, in a modern, monitored network providing a high level of quality and availability,” says Ricardo Adenes, director of Noroestecom.

The agreement also benefits Ascenty’s customers, who now have more than 3,000 km of optical network across more than 50 cities in São Paulo, connecting to cities in the states of Minas Gerais, Mato Grosso do Sul and Paraná. With more options for data transmission lines, the greater the scalability, resilience and quality of connections.

“This partnership is very valuable to Ascenty’s clients. With the reach of Noroestecom, our clients will be able to connect to the main global public clouds, in addition to offering a better user experience due to the low latency and resilience of services,” says Vinícius Minetto, Sales Director at Ascenty.
