US Signal announced that the company is expanding its cloud and data
protection capabilities to additional data centers. Beginning today, customers
have the ability to consume multi-tenant and private cloud services in US
Signal’s Grand Rapids, Southfield and Detroit Metro, Michigan data centers. The
same services will be available at US Signal’s Oak Brook, Illinois data center
in July and its Indianapolis, Indiana facility in September.

Organizations will now benefit from enhanced disaster recovery, backup and
managed security services and solutions. In addition, customers that colocate
physical infrastructure in these sites can leverage private Layer 2 network
connectivity to US Signal Cloud resources, including its HIPAA- and PCI
DSS-compliant Hosted Private Cloud- or a direct connection to hyperscale
providers.

US Signal’s data center services support the large-scale adoption of
cloud-first, hybrid, and off-premises data center strategies-all of which
require colocation space. The growing demand for each of these services is
highlighted within US Signal’s recent 2020 State of Data Center Offerings
Survey
. The report also calls out end-user preferences for
third-party edge data center providers with a solid record in security,
compliance and network capacity-areas in which US Signal continues to
demonstrate excellence and leadership.

“US Signal has seen a 300% growth in its data center business over the past
five years,” explained Dave Wisz, executive vice president of operations at US
Signal. “This is a trend that’s been steadily increasing over the last year but
has come to the forefront in the last few months as companies migrate to the
cloud in ever-increasing numbers, due to support of remote work. Today’s
announcement demonstrates that US Signal remains highly responsive to evolving
customer requirements and shows that we offer flexibility to customers at every
stage of their digital transformation journey.”

The dramatic increase of remote work since COVID-19 has highlighted the
importance of flexible and scalable cloud-based IT resources. To address these
needs, US Signal also enables access to its extensive geo-diverse data
protection solutions-all with high-speed connectivity, high availability and
extremely low latency of 5 milliseconds or less.
