Cologix Expands into Calgary Through Data Centre Acquisition

American digital-infrastructure firm Cologix has acquired a data centre in downtown Calgary, marking its expansion into the city.

The company said the acquisition from Data Hive strengthens its position as a leading interconnection provider across Canada. The Denver-based company acquired DataHiveOne, Calgary’s primary carrier hotel and Western Canada’s hub for global interconnection, and most of Data Hive’s colocation and interconnection assets.

The mission-critical, carrier-neutral facility serves as the region’s central connection hub. The building houses about 30 networks including the region’s Internet exchange, YYCIX, while offering enterprises, carriers and cloud service providers direct access to global networks and seamless connectivity across North America and beyond.

“This acquisition is a pivotal step in our continued investment in Canada to meet the growing needs of our customers,” said Laura Ortman, CEO of Cologix. “DataHiveOne is a critical interconnection hub that not only complements our existing footprint, but also significantly enhances our ability to support our customers’ digital-infrastructure and interconnection needs. It provides them with the dense network access, low latency and data sovereignty they need, helping us meet the increasing demand for reliable, secure connectivity.”

The acquisition gives Cologix 22 data centers across Montreal, Toronto and Vancouver and more than 1 million square feet of capacity. Cologix also houses a Canadian interconnection ecosystem of 330 networks, approximately 150 cloud providers, more than 15 public cloud onramps and four Internet exchanges. With DataHiveOne now in its portfolio, Cologix expands its ecosystem, supporting growing demand for secure, high-performance connectivity as well as cloud and inference AI workloads.

“This acquisition lays the foundation for Cologix’s further expansion in Western Canada to meet the growing demand of its customers,” said Cologix.
