 This is JSA TV, the newsroom for tech and telecom professionals. I'm Dean Perine and welcome to JSA TV. We are coming at you on location at Metro Connect 2019 in beautiful Miami, Florida. And I am here with Mr. Bob DeSantis. Bob is the CEO of 365 Data Centers. For our viewers that don't already know, why don't you tell them a little bit about 365 Data Centers? 365 Data Centers is an operator of co-location, network and cloud and other virtual services predominantly on the East Coast from Chicago up through Buffalo, New York all the way down here to Miami, Florida. And we offer not only co-location services, but network services including transport and IP blended products and network access products as well as cloud compute, cloud storage, disaster recovery as a service and backup as a service and try to do that in a way that is focused on the medium size and smaller businesses. So Bob, I know that you are undergoing some significant network upgrades right now. Specifically, I believe in this area of the country. Why don't you tell our viewers a little bit about that? Yeah, well, you know, the network world is moving up in terms of speeds and feeds and we have to keep up with that. You know, years ago we might have said a one gig network was going to be sufficient for a while but now it's a minimum of 10 gigs and moving to 100 gig. So we are very fortunate to have our network situated not only in our 10 data centers but in 20 other points of presence around the U.S. going all the way out to California. And again, even though we're primarily focused on the East Coast, we do have customers that have network needs. So we are doing a three phase upgrade of the network. We are just about complete here in our Florida market, which is about 40% of our business. Many of our customers are here and that will give us much more capacity with regard to bandwidth. It will give our customers a lot more capability to reach their customers in their various offices with lower latency and give them the opportunity as well to bring more carriers into the network that interface with the network. And our second and third phases will bring us to all of our other eight data centers throughout the U.S. And then to our 20 points of presence over the next 12 to 18 months. Okay, so you mentioned next 12 to 18 months. We know that there are network upgrades happening. What else? Is there anything that you feel like you can divulge to us today? What else isn't happening in this area? Exactly. And it's a combination of data and storage and movement of that data and storage all of which continues to exponentially grow. So we're in the right place at the right time. What I see for us going forward now that we have taken literally in less than two years a couple of businesses that had some complimentary assets and services and combined them into what we believe is a real hybrid data center operator at this point. What I see is us growing both internally and externally on the internal side now that we have a broad product set that we can offer in many geographic locations throughout the U.S. We're now building our sales force to be able to move those products into the markets. But we're also looking to grow externally. And I would suspect certainly over the next 12 months we could possibly double this business in terms of size now that we have built a very scalable platform to do that. Great answer, Bob. Thank you for giving us enough to pay attention to over the next year. We really appreciate that. Or maybe even a shorter time period in that. Even shorter. You heard it here first. Maybe even a shorter period of time. But Bob, we're hearing a lot about technology trends today. Why don't you tell our viewers a little bit about those trends or the trends that you are seeing in the space and specifically in the data center space? Sure. Well, you know, I don't want to keep going back to network, but I would say if you're, you know, if you're going to be a hybrid service provider as we are, you're going to be paying a lot of attention to network for the following reasons. You know, technology is changing all the time. But it's really all about the speed of the network and the capacity of the network. So, keeping up with the, you know, with the, you know, the various types of manufacturer equipment that's out in the marketplace is good. We've recently partnered with Cisco and Dell on a couple of various initiatives. And so, you know, to the extent network speeds can continue to grow and increase and, you know, move us up towards 100 gig at some point, we need to pay full attention to that. It's not only important for our network customers, for our transport, for our IP blend products and even for our network access products, but it's also important for our cloud compute, cloud storage and all of our other virtual offerings such as backup and disaster recovery as a service. Because those services are as good as the network and if the network is good, then the customer feels like all that is on-prem for them and it makes it a much better customer experience. So, I think the network is really a driver. And then keeping up with the technologies with regard to the cloud platforms, you know, how to do it cheaper, you know, more storage for less cost, you know, is key. So, I'd say those are the two areas that, you know, we see every day and deal with every day. Very good, Bob. Thank you very much for your insight today. We really appreciate it. You're really welcome. Thank you. You bet. You bet. And thank you viewers for watching JSA TV. We'll see you soon.
