EarthLink yesterday announced the opening of its newest data center at 2323 Bryan Street in Dallas, as a part of the company’s nationwide IT services and data center network expansion.

A leading IT services and communications provider, Atlanta-based EarthLink has also opened a new sales office in the Dallas area, seeking to expand their employee base and fulfill the business demand for its highly secure, comprehensive IT solutions.

“Dallas is a booming business market, and an important communications hub and distribution point for IP traffic. Opening a data center here is an important step in our motion to create a regionally-diverse, expanded IT solutions footprint to support the growing and evolving needs of companies as they seek to virtualize their businesses,” said Michael D. Toplisek, Executive Vice President of Sales and Marketing for EarthLink.

One of the first EarthLink customers installed in the Dallas data center is Mexico City-based Payrolling, a leader in payroll and human resources consulting services.

“EarthLink has always provided us with first-class service, and our partnership has played a fundamental part in our growth and ability to stay a step ahead with technology,” said Marcelo Ahuerma, Payrolling IT and Implementation Manager.

In addition to Dallas, EarthLink looks to geographically diverse their data centers, with plans to open three more data centers in Chicago, Miami, and San Jose in the coming months.
