..and here's the announcement this morning: "IBM to Provide Web Hosting Services in Equinix IBX(TM) Centers" newsalert.com "In addition to serving its own customers in the new IBX(TM) centers, IBM Global Services will also offer other IBX(TM) participants -- such as content providers, e-commerce companies and application service providers -- a wide range of services to help them improve the performance, scalability, and cost-efficiency of their information technology operations. Among the services IBM will offer are e-business strategy, Web design, application development, systems performance testing, security evaluations, implementation, and systems management. " This is the "community effect" of a IBX. And unlike other data center managers, EQIX doesn't attempt to provide e-services, and so doesn't compete with its new customer.
