Company Overview

The THINK NEXT Company

While the world was perfecting online networks, Telehouse was perfecting the infrastructure to support the increasing demand for network operations we knew were coming. Building over 40 data centers didn’t happen overnight.

Our parent company KDDI, a global Fortune 300 company, realized the future, and constructed the transpacific cable that connected continents, and is still the main artery for data flow across the Pacific today.

This was the beginning of a network of infrastructure designed to support a massive global movement to the Internet.

A Company of Firsts

It was 1989, the year the first text message was sent, the year the first commercial ISPs began operations and gas was 93 cents. The same year, Telehouse built the Teleport in New York, the first purpose-built data center in the US, which is our US Headquarters today. This structure was built to our exact specifications and is a powerhouse for our New York customers. Construction followed with a second, Telehouse North in London’s Docklands in 1990, and we continued to expand across Europe and Asia.

But we didn’t stop there.

Building an Efficient Peering Network

While construction was underway in New York, our engineers anticipated the need for an efficient way to connect networks. With that goal, the first Internet Peering Exchange, NYIIX, was designed and built into the Teleport. Today, hundreds of peering partners exchange traffic making it one of the largest in the world. NYIIX on the west coast connects enterprises with Asia, and our newest location is in Philadelphia. In London, the LINX interconnects businesses across Europe.

Investing in Our Future

The future of our planet is an investment in the future for Telehouse. Cooling systems in data centers are power hungry and crucial to maintaining operations. We designed the new Telehouse London North Two data center with a multi-story indirect adiabatic and evaporative cooling system to deliver an industry leading PUE of 1.16. This cutting edge technology uses the cooling power of water to achieve low energy cooling in large internal spaces like data centers.
