Ascenty, a provider of LATAM data center and connectivity services in Latin America, has partnered with Azion, an Edge Computing platform that serves 45 of the 50 largest LATAM e-commerces and some of the largest banks in the region, to improve the distribution of edge technology to banks, fintechs and retailers across the continent.
Based on the concept of interconnectivity and to boost results, Azion connected to Ascenty’s operations in São Paulo (SP), Fortaleza (CE) and Santiago de Chile, to accommodate equipment and distribute technology to customers.
So far, Azion has seen a 23% improvement in network latency.
“Since the start of our collaboration, we have seen significant improvements compared to the previous supplier. To give you an idea, in more than 3 years, we have never had a power outage or unavailability. This stability ties in with one of our differentials: a highly available service,” said Rogério Mariano, Global Head of Network Planning, Azion.
The collaboration is enhanced with the addition of Cross Connect, Colocation, Internet Exchange (AICX) – solutions that are part of Ascenty’s connectivity ecosystem with its dedicated network capable of connecting all the company’s data centers and interconnecting them to the main content and cloud providers, telecommunications operators and third-party data centers.
“Ascenty offers a favorable ecosystem for our business model, helping to bring our customers closer to their end users and allowing us to optimize processing capacity, resilience and availability of our infrastructure,” said Mariano.
