Continent 8 Technologies continues its global expansion with the opening of its point of presence (POP) in Paris. This will be followed shortly by co-location facilities and managed services offered to meet the needs of Continent 8’s growing customer base as the French gaming market opens. Private network capabilities of the company will be enhanced, as well as additional geographical redundancy for network connections between Europe, North America and Asia. These network improvements form the basis for expansion of Continent 8’s global presence which connects its Data Centres and links France with London, the Isle of Man, Malta, Gibraltar, Singapore, and Kahnawake, near Montreal, through dedicated connections.
 
In addition to the new POP, the presence in Paris will allow the company to increase its peering agreements in addition to those already established in London and Montreal.
 
Increasing network capability and diversity allows for continued development of existing products and services such as Disaster Recovery, Distributed Denial of Service (DDoS) protection and Content Delivery Network (CDN) services.
 
Michael Tobin, CEO of Continent 8 Technologies, said “Our investment in network and facilities is to provide our customer’s customers with the best online experience available. As traffic and requirements of our clients increase, Continent 8 is committed to providing leading edge services to meet growing sophisticated demands.”
