Is your company’s data getting the care and attention it needs?
Find out from Andy Power, Digital Realty’s Chief Financial Officer, how Financial Services companies are getting the most from their data – and changing their data center needs as a result.
Staying competitive in the world’s top financial hubs
To keep up with the pace of change, Financial Services must adjust their business models to create the most competitive interconnected communities. Digital Realty works with Financial Services organizations to deliver the flexible environment they need to optimize the access and exchange of their data. We help them build their competitive interconnected communities in prime locations to enable ultra-low latency access to an ecosystem of market participants, including trading venues, market data providers, buy side and sell side firms, as well as cloud, managed service and network service providers.
Digital Realty's trusted foundation
Our trusted foundation enables our customers to rapidly respond to market conditions and new technology trends such as Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Internet of Things (IoT) which is becoming a driving force of intelligence for many competitive organizations.
As a result, our next-generation data centers form an integral part of Financial Services strategy and ensure that the right controls, processes and procedures are in place to meet the full range of market and regulatory demands.
Security
Highly secure portal assets, physical infrastructure management and data policies and procedures ensure secure, private connectivity to high-performance networks across an interconnected ecosystem.
We understand that data security demands are more than antivirus programs and firewalls to guard against cyber criminals. That's why data center security – both physical and information – is an essential part of our strategy for ensuring operational efficiency and peace of mind for our customers. With highly dependable security measures in place, we give peace of mind so that customers can focus on running their business.

Digital Realty has incorporated compliance programs into the design and management of our security systems and data centers. This means that we meet the rigid standards incorporated into the most relevant data center certifications programs, including SOC2, PCI-DSS, ISO 9001, ISO 14001, ISO 50001 & ISO 27001.
Ease of Transaction Completion
Ability to move fast and meet deadline, working with the customer every step of the way to maximize their cloud and interconnection strategy.

Where is your digital community?
The physical location of a data center can have a major impact on data speeds and latency. We have data centers in all the major financial hubs (for example, London, New York and Singapore) and continue to add to our portfolio.
To comply with data sovereignty and data protection laws, we are able to support customer requirements to host certain data domestically/ in certain countries. Our global reach ensures that customers have a choice of where to host their data.
