Wasabi Technologies customer success story

The challenge

Wasabi Technologies, a leading cloud storage provider, needed to expand its presence on the East Coast. As a company focused on storing customer data, Wasabi needed a top tier data center that could provide the best-in-class security, continuous power and bandwidth in order to satisfy customer needs.

The results

Being in Iron Mountain's Virginia data center allows Wasabi to grow its presence on the East Coast while leveraging the Northern Virginia ecosystem for connectivity needs. The facility provides the physical security the company needs, and provides Wasabi the ability to scale with Iron Mountain in Virginia, as well as other regions with Iron Mountain Data Centers.
