Case Study: Bluemine achieves scalable, GDPR-compliant BI and global cloud interconnection with Equinix ECX Fabric

Bluemine - Customer Case Study

Bluemine, part of the DIKW Group in the Netherlands, is a business intelligence and big data specialist that helps midsize companies turn data into growth. Facing the need to store large datasets, give data scientists access to best-of-breed BI tools, and meet data sovereignty and GDPR requirements — while preparing for international expansion — Bluemine needed a secure, compliant and scalable infrastructure strategy.

Bluemine deployed an Interconnection Oriented Architecture on Platform Equinix, colocating a five‑node cluster in the Equinix Amsterdam (AM1) IBX and using ECX Fabric to securely connect to cloud BI providers. The solution cut costs versus full cloud virtualization, delivered the flexibility to scale, and has run smoothly since deployment; it enabled global interconnection, a domestic data base with a clear path to worldwide expansion, and business outcomes such as reduced customer churn, identification of high‑value “gold” customers, and demonstrable compliance.
