10 Most Innovative Data Center Companies To Watch

Data centers have become a popular buzzword, with all the tech giants moving their businesses to the cloud. A place where one can safely store crucial information,
applications, and data, they have become an integral part of the growth and scalability of
an organization.
Tectrade is an award-winning Managed Service Cloud Provider with global reach, and a
specialist in evaluating environments critical to its clients' operation. With a promise of
eliminating any pressure of managing the data once they are onboard, Tectrade removes
the inefficiencies and assists the clients' organizations in moving to a streamlined and
contemporary solution.
Tectrade, Nick Westall, CTO, said, "We help clients to securely move their critical,
regulated, and complex business applications to the cloud. Our unique mix of cyber
security, application software support, and infrastructure services ensures we manage
every step of the journey."
Organizations can react faster to changing customer behavior when they embrace
innovative applications and flexible platforms than traditional methods.
In short, there are no more physical boxes, cables, racks, power, cooling, or planning shift
patterns around holidays and vacations. Tectrade cleans up your business, improves
efficiency, and allows your company to become more agile to the evolving needs of the
business.

Tectrade's 35 years of managing mission-critical applications and underlying platforms
translate into clients who can take the journey to the cloud without interrupting current
workload function and performance - no matter where they are.
One of the greatest challenges decision-makers face is the competitive pressure to
modernize their applications and back-office operations. The challenge is not just to update
but to react before their competitors if they don't want to lose the strategic advantage and
market share.

The decision-makers with complex back-end workloads in regulated industries like
financial services, health, pharma, and manufacturing, have data processing demands that
don't play well in the public cloud. Their sheer volume of data or its complex processing
burden is so great it costs too much to ingest or process the data in the cloud.
Regulated organizations are gaining an advantage over their competitors by splitting the
load and placing the customer and employee interaction with their applications into the
public cloud while keeping the processing securely in the private data center. Tectrade
provides 'secure by default' hybrid multi-cloud hosted managed services to allow their
customers to seamlessly leverage the agility of the public cloud with the security and
power of data center infrastructure.
Elaborating on their statement – Interconnected Data Centers and Hybrid Cloud IT
Solutions – Nick Westall said, "Tectrade is operating in over 20 data centers across North
America, UK, Europe, the Middle East, and the AsiaPac region, delivering seamless,
demanding, multi-cloud services with Microsoft Azure, AWS, and GPC. Provided with a
24x7 end-to-end, full-depth, managed service wrap, they support dynamic applications
and data services driven by mixed VMware, x86, IBM, containerized IaaS, PaaS, and
SaaS. Tectrade provides its managed service to remove CAPEX dependency, freeing up
capital to fund accelerated infrastructure and application modernization. Tectrade not
only provides its own managed infrastructure, they also manage and operate its customer's
environments, wherever they are located. True flexibility reflects the changing reality of the
customer's complex modernization journey."
Citing some case studies, Nick Westall said that Tectrade's hybrid enablement for financial
services: Needing the platform services and dynamic scalability of public hyper-scalers for
their customer banking application, combined with the back end, on-premises security, and
access to sensitive customer transactions, a regional retail banking organization lacked the
public cloud skills to transform and relocate their customer application workloads into
Microsoft Azure. Tectrade provided the reference architecture and cyber resilience design
enabling the bank to achieve regulatory approval. With permission, Tectrade built and
delivered a seamless, secure mixed private/public multi-cloud environment, spanning the
customers' data centers and Microsoft Azure using resilient high-speed interconnectivity
with bespoke landing zones. Provided a 24x7 fully managed service wrap Tectrade
removed the customer's knowledge and resource constraints with a single, simple,
sustainable solution to a complex technical problem.
Nick Westall said about the market competition, "Tectrade is one of the only four
companies worldwide who can provide public, private, and hybrid solutions in complex,
demanding environments that are regulated or have IBM-powered applications or systems.

Customers often lack or cannot retain a critical mass of skilled employees to do this
themselves. Or they lack the diversity of talent required to modernize to public cloud
demands while keeping normal business working. Delivering and changing in a complex
environment is dif icult and expensive. Tectrade supports over a thousand customers
across the US and Europe with its 24x7 managed services. For the last four decades,
Tectrade has provided end-to-end managed infrastructure, with cyber resilience, data
protection, compute, storage, and connectivity, wherever it is located."
The future is bright for Tectrade as it is snowballing with infrastructure and application
SecDevOps services. Complemented with intelligent Application Resource Management
solutions to dynamically guarantee application performance in multi-cloud and hybrid
environments beyond human scale. Tectrade's dominance in the corporate sector sees them
achieving impressive gains in large, regulated enterprises. Tectrade is one of the only companies with the depth of offering, and experience, to deliver a highly differentiated
service at scale.
