Meet in the Middle 2023: A Recap

2023-10-05T15:14:22-05:00

If we had to pick, we’d say that the term ‘ecosystem’ is probably one of the most-used words in our vocabulary — followed closely by partners, customers and peers. So, with more than 100 participants representing 61 companies, we knew the Meet in the Middle event would add value to all. There’s a reason we focus so much on the web of connections and collaborations we’ve built here in Omaha, and it’s because of the value they continue to drive for our entire roster of innovative organizations. From our data center halls to our IX ports, our ecosystem is what we’re most proud of — which is why we look [...]

Why are Data Centers Becoming Cloud Nexus Points?

2023-03-01T13:47:15-06:00

In “Back to the Future II,” protagonist Marty McFly finds his future self and family living in a fanciful home where his son asks the kitchen to bring him fruit and future Marty connects with his boss on a video call in the year 2015. The prognosticators behind the film didn’t get everything right (future Marty still gets faxes, after all), but many of the elements imagined when the movie was written over three decades ago have come to fruition. The smart home and appliances or communications and video gaming devices depicted in the past’s most idealized dreams for the future aren’t a far cry from many of the things [...]

The Hybrid and Multicloud Must-Have: Building a Well-Founded Ecosystem

2023-02-16T14:11:55-06:00

2023 is being hailed as the year of the cloud — or at least, much like the years that came before it, a year in which cloud usage will continue to evolve and contribute to a growing share of an organization’s resources and success. Toward the end of 2022, Forbes noted that multicloud will continue to be an in-demand strategy, citing reports that showed how 84% of mid-to-large companies stated a goal of adopting a multi-cloud strategy by 2023. In the same timeframe, Gartner revealed that new spending was continuing to shift to cloud options, as evidenced by an 11.3% projected growth for software spending in 2023.  A continuation of [...]

The PTC conference is a mainstay of the telecom and data center conference circuit, and this year, 1623 Farnam was thrilled to make the long journey to sunny Honolulu where we had the opportunity to shake hands, make new connections and rejoin with old friends.  While on site, our VP of Business Development Greg Elliott sat down with JSA TV to offer some insight into what makes our interconnection hub and edge data center so special. Of course, it starts with our strong foundations in Omaha and is underscored by our on-site internet exchange (if you haven’t checked out OmahaIX yet, now’s your chance). However, what makes the connectivity advantages [...]

A 6G Crash Course: What’s Headed Our Way?

2022-11-22T09:46:43-06:00

5G is certainly having its heyday, and the entire IT ecosystem is still in the midst of 5G densification, use case development, and full-on rollout. It’s no surprise that 5G would garner so much press — as with every new generation cellular technology, it brings a lot of value, innovation, and enhanced capabilities to businesses and users of all kinds. In fact, the influence of 5G is so extensive that by 2030, the economic impact of 5G is expected to reach $227 billion — in the manufacturing industry alone. Take into consideration the huge implications this technology will have on mobile communications, healthcare, government, entertainment, and more, and it’s clear [...]
