Digital Infrastructure Roadmap to Unlock Growth – Part 2: Digital Ecosystems – Interconnections – The Equinix Blog
Build new value chains leveraging commercial ecosystems
As digital leaders ramp up their businesses, automating business processes and scaling service delivery platforms increase in importance. Ensuring low latency and high performance for their digital services are also top priorities.
Companies are leveraging access to relevant technology and business communities on Platform Equinix, such as payments, logistics, connected vehicles, fintech, healthtech and more. They ensure the lowest-latency and highest-performing digital services through API-driven collaboration, directly connecting with the highest density of commercial partners in strategic locations. On-demand, subscription-based offerings allow them to shift to flexible consumption models, freeing up capital to invest in their digital growth.
Equinix benchmarking found that leveraging commercial ecosystems led to:
- 20x increased data exchange
- 2-5x faster access to new markets
- CAPEX to OPEX shift to leverage on-demand and subscription services
