Nov, 2003 : ColoSpace Opens New Data Center Facility

📅 November 14, 2003 - ColoSpace, Inc. (colospace.com -> firstlight.net), a provider of colocation, disaster recovery and managed services, announced yesterday that it has opened a data center facility in Marlborough, Massachusetts.

The Massachusetts-based company said the new facility would allow it to expand its colocation and business continuity services to businesses in the I-495/Route 9 Corridor, Worcester, Massachusetts, Providence, Rhode Island, Hartford, and Connecticut areas.
"ColoSpace's goal is to provide New England companies with carrier class data center space, first class technical support and managed services to ensure clients can resume business operations quickly and seamlessly in the event of an unforeseen disruption of power or communications services," said Wayne Sawchuk, president and CEO of ColoSpace. "Companies also require this highly reliable, quality service to off load peak development work which would otherwise impact critical day-to-day operations or to fulfill compliancy with regulations for data recovery, such as HIPPA in the medical industry, or SEC guidelines in the financial community."
ColoSpace currently operates two other facilities in Massachusetts and one in New Hampshire.
