IT reseller SCC enters the data telecoms market following its buying an undisclosed stake in London-based data connectivity provider Fluidata, providing it with datacentre services connectivity and capability.
Fluidata is a specialist in Layer-2 and Layer-3 delivery, using technologies such as DSL, EFM, Fibre, VPLS/MPLS, wireless and unique failover/aggregation.
The investment follows the SCC acquisition of the SSE Telecoms flagship Hampshire datacentre earlier this year, alongside its Midlands facilities.
“Fluidata positions SCC at the forefront of Data Centre Services, adding further connectivity and flexibility to our customers," SCC says. "In addition, this investment provides SCC with access to the data telecoms market, widening SCC’s DCS proposition.”
The reseller adds it sees 2014 datacentre and cloud services growth of 69% thanks to key customer wins including Gist, Aggregate Industries, BOC, IBM, Oxfordshire County Council, CAA and Highways Agency.
