Cirion and Cinema Máquina join forces to improve connectivity and interconnection of technological processes

MEXICO CITY, October 10, 2023 – Cirion Technologies, a leading provider of technology and digital infrastructure, has collaborated with Cinema Máquina, a leading post-production studio for films and television series with more than 12 years of experience, to improve the connectivity and interconnection of its content production processes, as well as to optimize processes in general, automate responses, and ensure a secure and seamless connection to the cloud.

Today, digitalization is key to cope with the dynamics of a company’s daily operations, meet customers needs and be responsive. Cinema Máquinas need of dedicated connectivity and to produce and share large amounts of content was a challenge. Cirion Technologies helped improve the company’s connectivity by making employees connections more efficient and preventing impacts from the lack of connection.

With Cirion’s technology, Cinema Máquina now counts on a 5Gb/second bandwidth link, supported by the company’s fiber optic infrastructure, enabling employees to connect remotely and accelerating the distribution of internal and external contents.

Cirion Technologies contributed to the companys interconnection by maximizing its potential through scalable network solutions that enable smart automation, real-time data performance and dynamic bandwidth scalability. Additionally, Cirion maintains data and applications secure in the main public and private clouds, avoiding risks.

Among the benefits obtained by Cinema Máquina are:

Greater agility to send content, maximizing the capacity and speed of data uploads.
Continuity of the company’s activities remotely, without compromising operations.
Improved hybrid and remote flows. Employees can connect without failures and use services in public and private clouds.
Optimization of the latest and most advanced technologies to improve performance and eliminate problems.

Over the last few decades, corporate network connectivity has evolved in tandem with companies dynamic needs and, as observed with the sudden shift to remote work in 2020, the evolution cycle is accelerating in response to the changing environment. This makes interconnection more important than ever for a modern company.

At Cirion, we want our solutions to help streamline the processes for companies that usually manage large amounts of data, such as Cinema Máquina, and improve their connectivity with cutting-edge technology while guaranteeing security, said Jaime Durán, Director of Connectivity & Content Products for the Northern Cluster at Cirion Technologies.

Cirion deploys new multicloud environments in Mexico and Chile

Through Cloud Connect, Cirion promotes secure and efficient connectivity with leading cloud service providers

MIAMI, FL. September 28, 2023  Cirion Technologies, a leading digital infrastructure and technology provider, announces new multicloud connections in Querétaro (México) and Santiago (Chile), two key markets in Latin America which show a growing demand for cloud services.

The initiative aims to provide companies in the region with even faster and more reliable access to the benefits of the cloud, while ensuring secure and efficient connections. These two new multi-cloud environments with AWS, Google Cloud, Azure, and Oracle join the existing one in São Paulo, as well as connections in Rio de Janeiro (Brazil) to Microsoft, Buenos Aires (Argentina) to AWS, and Santiago (Chile) to Oracle.

The adoption of multi-cloud strategies has become a critical need for organizations seeking flexibility, resiliency, and performance in their cloud operations. Alejandro Girardotti, Senior Director of Product, Innovation, and Strategic Alliances at Cirion Technologies, said: Multicloud environments give companies the ability to use different providers without having to rely on a single one, optimize costs by selecting specific services from each provider, and become more resilient by distributing workloads across multiple clouds. With the deployment of new multicloud environments, Cirion is positioned as the ideal strategic partner for companies that want to maximize the potential of the cloud securely and efficiently.

In turn, Cloud Service Providers (CSPs) are strongly increasing their presence in Latin America. They are looking to expand their infrastructure, offer local services, establish strategic partnerships, and provide technical support and training to drive cloud adoption in the region. In this context, Girardotti mentioned: It is part of Cirions strategy, and we find it critical, to continue establishing connections with every CSP in most of the countries where we are present, especially in those where our Data Centers are predominant“.

Cirion’s Cloud Connect service is an integral solution that effectively addresses connectivity between local networks and cloud services. It offers numerous benefits, including focus on security, optimized performance, lower latency, and simple scalability.

Keynua Relies on Cirion and AWS Cloud Solutions

Keynua Relies on Cirion and AWS Cloud Solutions

With Cirions Cloud Analytics solution, the company gains greater visibility of its public cloud costs and can optimize budgets. Users benefit from streamlined and secure processes and signature of contracts.

LIMA, May 04, 2023 – Today, companies demand the best technologies to carry out their daily activities and offer optimal services to customers. This is the case with Keynua, a leading electronic signature services company.

Cirion Technologies has been providing MPLS connectivity services to Keynua Peru for several years. Through these networks, the American company initially connected its offices with Cirion’s local cloud service Dynamic Enterprise Computing (DEC) to host its virtual servers, where some of their services to state-owned entities are located. As the business continued to grow, Keynua decided to add Cirion’s Cloud Analytics solution to help optimize its AWS expenses.

Cloud Analytics is a SaaS (Software as a Service)-type product that provides a high level of visibility into customers service consumptions in the public clouds. In such a dynamic and diverse environment, it allows them to obtain the information needed to optimize costs.

Thanks to working with Cirion Technologies, we have clear and detailed visibility of AWS costs. Additionally, we can optimize costs through the data analytics solution in the cloud, says Alfredo Granda, VP of Engineering at Keynua.

Oftentimes, when a company migrates its workloads to the public cloud, it loses the ability to manage and control its costs. This is why Cirion offers Cloud Analytics solution, which enables better visualization and cost control. Cirion’s Cloud Analytics solution generates daily, weekly, and monthly consumption reports, alerts, forecasts, and creates budgets, allowing you to check how much is spent on each service, as well as providing cost-saving suggestions, among others. In short, it makes it easier to monitor cloud costs to optimize your budget, which ultimately means better management.

Through the different views and reports offered by Cloud Analytics, Keynua will be able to visualize every detail of the consumptions made in the different public cloud environments with which it works, comments Gianni Hanawa, Commercial Director at Cirion Peru. This service facilitates management and control of the customer’s entire public cloud operation, regardless of the public cloud provider(s) chosen.

Cirion continuously provides us with a reliable and functional framework, allowing us to scale our business while maintaining the level of service, adds Alfredo Granda, VP of Engineering at Keynua.

Additionally, Cirion’s Cloud Analytics solution enables Keynua to use local billing for AWS costs. Furthermore, considering the partnership between AWS and Cirion Technologies, the latter can provide technical assistance as a Partner – Led Support.

Finally, the executive emphasizes Cirion’s experience and its positive contributions to the business, such as cost optimization and constant same-language support, which he considers key factors in maintaining a long-lasting business relationship.

Cirion to Deploy New 20 MW Data Center in Santiago, Chile

Jul 31, 2023

Cirion to Deploy New 20 MW Data Center in Santiago, Chile

The facility will be a 20 MW state-of-the-art, energy efficient data center providing critical colocation capacity to service growing regional demand needs

This data center will have direct fiber connectivity to Cirions existing ecosystem-dense facility in Santiago

MIAMI, July 31, 2023 Cirion, a leading digital infrastructure and technology provider, announced that the company will commence construction of a new 20-megawatt carrier-neutral data center facility in Santiago, Chile (SAN2). Cirion is backed by Stonepeak, a leading alternative investment firm specializing in infrastructure and real assets with more than $57 billion in assets under management and an extensive portfolio of communications and digital infrastructure investments globally.

SAN2 is an expansion of Cirions existing data center footprint in Latin America and will be well-equipped to meet the needs of hyperscale cloud service providers, carriers, content providers, and enterprises that require scalable infrastructure. It is expected to be completed by early 2025 and will be built on the 23,000 square meters of land in the industrial district of Quilicura.

The new data center is strategically located near, and will be directly connected to, Cirions existing ecosystem-dense data center in Santiago located 2.5 kilometers away. It will have access to a business-friendly environment and renewable energy, with four independent metro fiber route entrances to the building, long-haul connectivity to major cities and tech hubs in the region and be in close proximity to international subsea cable networks to facilitate minimal latency between Latin America and other regions. SAN2 is well-positioned to serve as a critical hub for businesses in the region and beyond.

The data center will also enable businesses to build and scale their operations in a facility that aligns with Latin Americas sustainability goals, and Cirions Environmental, Social and Governance (ESG) strategy and commitment to technological innovation. SAN2 will have a market-leading PUE (Power Usage Effectiveness), consuming minimal energy, water and natural resources to reduce its overall impact on the environment. These standards were also adopted by Cirions recently announced new 20 MW data center facility in Lurín, Perú (LIM2).

The development of this new Data Center in Santiago represents another important step in our journey to grow our platform of low latency, interconnected data centers and establish a growing digital ecosystem across Latin America, said Facundo Castro, CEO for Cirion Technologies. This new facility in Santiago reflects Cirion´s continued commitment to investing and providing our customers with the most comprehensive suite of data center solutions to support their digital transformation across the region.

SAN2 will be part of Cirions larger carrier-neutral platform, which consists of 18 owned data centers around Latin America today. Customers can connect directly to more than 90 carriers and public cloud providers in the area using peer-to-peer networking through Cirion’s data centers, which also enable scalable colocation, cross connectivity, and disaster recovery capabilities.
