    Arces Network (PDF)

    Since 2005, Arces has relied on Equinix to provide the quality data centers and wealth of network choice that its customers expect. The relationship proved especially valuable when Sesame Workshop—a long-time Arces client and the non-profit educational organization behind Sesame Street—approached Arces about supporting a short-term online event.

In Their Words

“While we had to evaluate a few scenarios, we knew we wouldn’t have to worry about facility-related issues because we had already installed Sesame Workshop in an Equinix data center.”

— Adrian Goins, President and CEO, Arces Network
