CoreSite Realty Corporation (COR - Free Report) has been selected by cybersecurity and IT solutions provider – Ariento – as its data center solution partner. Particularly, Ariento chose to deploy at CoreSite’s Santa Clara campus for its closeness to markets where Ariento offers services.

A service-disabled veteran-owned company – Ariento – has more than 30 years of experience in cybersecurity for various military branches and organizations. Its decision to deploy at the Santa Clara campus is for supplementing growth in its client base with advanced architecture, especially lowering the latency to public cloud service providers like AWS Direct Connect.
