As John Giblin, Chief Revenue Officer of Qarbon Technologies, I am thrilled to share the launch of our game-changing platform, Qarbon LATTICE™. This innovative solution marks a new era in data center management, offering unparalleled efficiency and connectivity. LATTICE™ integrates seamlessly with popular SaaS platforms, revolutionizing how data center operators and customers interact with their infrastructure.
I am incredibly proud of our technical teams who have worked tirelessly to bring this vision to life. Their dedication and expertise have culminated in a platform that not only meets but exceeds industry expectations. LATTICE™ stands as a testament to their skill and commitment to excellence.
For data center operators, LATTICE™ presents unprecedented potential. Its federated API platform simplifies operations, enhances agility, and optimizes resource management. This translates to improved service delivery for customers, who can now enjoy more reliable and efficient data center services. The early feedback from adopters has been overwhelmingly positive, underscoring the platform's impact.
As we embark on this exciting journey with LATTICE™, we are confident it will redefine industry standards and lead to more innovative solutions. The launch of LATTICE™ is just the beginning of our commitment to excellence and innovation in the data center industry.
In 2023, the total number of interconnections, which includes both physical cross-connects and virtual interconnections, surpassed 1 million globally, indicating the increasing reliance on these connections for data center operations. Physical cross-connects alone saw a year-over-year growth of 10% from 2019 to 2020, while virtual interconnections experienced an even more rapid growth rate of over 50% year-over-year. This growth is being driven by data center providers like Equinix, Digital Realty and software-defined networking (SDN) interconnection platforms such as Megaport, PacketFabric, and Console Connect by PCCW.
LATTICE™ will launch with cross-connect order orchestration and a roadmap to automate (including integrating AI/ML) all the data generated by data center infrastructure. Product release 1.0 includes self-service Cross-Connect (XC) ordering across multiple leading global colocation #datacenters (DCs). The platform offers seamless integration with common workflow management systems including ServiceNow, Salesforce & SAP Ariba with the ability to 'Track & Trace' your XC-orders.
The future Qarbon product roadmap will include power, water, security, air conditioning, temperature, humidity, inventory, along with the physical connections and operating processes that tie it all together. Automating all the data about the datacenter.
What truly excites me about LATTICE™ is our collaboration with industry giants. We're already partnering with the world’s leading data center telecommunications, finance, and content companies, helping them transition to this platform. This collaboration is not just about onboarding; it's a journey towards realizing the full potential of a fully automated orchestration layer. The benefits are substantial – from enhanced operational agility to optimized resource management.
As we progress, our focus is unwavering: to empower data center operators and their customers with cutting-edge technology. LATTICE™ is not just a product; it's a commitment to driving the future of datacenter operations. We are excited to lead this charge, and I am confident that LATTICE™ will be a cornerstone in the evolution of data center management.
The launch of Qarbon LATTICE™ marks a new chapter in data center technology.
