Digital Realty

CEO: William Stein

Digital Realty is the largest colocation data center provider that owns all of its own data centers with more than 280 facilities worldwide in over 20 countries. Throughout 2020, all of Digital Realty’s data centers remained fully operational.

In the largest data center acquisition of 2020, Digital Realty purchased European data center giant InterXion for $8.4 billion. Netherlands-based InterXion has 53 facilities in 11 European countries and 13 metro areas. The company said the merger has created the leading pan-European data center provider.

The company continues to buy land across the globe to build new or expand its data center sites as well as acquire other colocation vendors such as Lamda Hellix. Digital Realty also recently launched Data Hub featuring AWS Outposts, enabling customers to rapidly deploy AWS infrastructure on its PlatformDigital solution.
