A Digital Realty Case Study
nexellent, founded in 2004 and headquartered in Zurich, provides modular ICT services and private-cloud solutions with a focus on the financial sector’s exacting security and availability needs. The company needed very high-speed, low-latency connectivity and FINMA-compliant security while avoiding large upfront capital investment, and had to be able to scale quickly to meet changing IT consumption models.
By partnering with Interxion’s Zurich data centre—carrier- and cloud-neutral, FINMA- and ISO 27001-compliant and offering pay-as-you-grow colocation and 24x7 security—nexellent gained the connectivity, compliance and flexible capacity it required. The result: growth from a single rack to about 120 racks serving roughly 350 customers (80% Swiss), eight years of close cooperation and consistent annual turnover growth of 30–35% enabled by scalable, low-risk expansion.
