Interxion, a Digital Realty company, acquired Lamda Hellix, a Greece-based colocation and interconnection provider. Lamda Hellix's management team will remain with the business, including CEO and chairman Apostolos Kakkos, who will continue to lead and run the operation.
At present, Lamda Hellix houses two data centres hosting approximately two-thirds of Greek data centre communities. The facilities are serviced by all fibre and connectivity providers operating in the country and serve a wide variety of blue-chip customers including telecom providers, government agencies, financial services institutions, cloud service providers and two large internet exchanges.
The acquisition bolsters Interxion's and Digital Realty's footprint, which includes more than 700 connectivity providers in over 280 data centres across 24 countries. The transaction also reflects Digital Realty's continued investment in PlatformDigital, the company's global data centre platform.
No financial details of the takeover were disclosed.
