Agile Data Sites Partners with Lincoln Rackhouse to Acquire Bytegrid’s Former Assets and Clients and Expand its Data Center Portfolio Key Markets
Acquiring Bytegrid’s Former Book of Business Will Extend Agile Data Sites’ Footprint in Washington, D.C. and Establish a Presence in the Chicago, IL Market.
- (1888PressRelease) July 24, 2019 - DALLAS, TX - Agile Data Sites, a provider of modern, scalable, and secure IT infrastructure solutions, announces that it is partnering with Lincoln Rackhouse, the data center division of Lincoln Property Company, to lease 3MW of data center space and procure a portion of the services business recently acquired by Lincoln Rackhouse from Bytegrid. The additional data center locations enable Agile Data Sites to grow its offering with compliant managed services, including colocation and Disaster Recovery-as-a-Service (DRaaS), and extend its footprint. With this partnership, Agile Data Sites, currently offering three previously established locations in Allentown, PA, King of Prussia, PA, and Silver Spring, MD, increases its presence in Silver Spring, MD, and adds a new location in Aurora, IL. Funding for this expansion was provided by a recent recapitalization of the business by local U.S.-based partners, with additional financing provided by Freedom Bank of Virginia.
Through this transaction, Agile has acquired Bytegrid’s former colocation, compliant hosting, and managed services assets, along with the company’s clients in Silver Spring, MD, and the greater D.C. metro area. Agile has also acquired Bytegrid’s compliant hosting and managed services business in Chicago. Lincoln Rackhouse will continue to own and operate the real estate at each site and will partner with Agile to market additional available inventory.
“We’re thrilled to be growing and expanding our business to better deliver future-proofed IT transformation solutions and meet even the most demanding needs of our clients,” comments Jim Weller, Chief Executive Officer of Agile Data Sites. “Partnering with Lincoln Rackhouse has helped us to successfully identify new growth opportunities and bolster our capabilities with strategic real estate investments.”
Since joining the Agile Data Sites team as CEO in January 2019, Weller has been spearheading the company’s efforts to grow into new markets and augment its service and product offerings. Agile’s data center offerings and recently-expanded technology solutions cater to a wide range of existing enterprise customers and verticals, including major healthcare, research, and higher education institutions.
