Chicago is the third largest city in the United States and one of the largest cities in the world. Benefitting from its central location, relatively inexpensive power, and one of the largest concentrations of companies in the US, Chicago has become an ideal location for hosting critical internet infrastructure. Several data centers have popped up in the last 20 years, including one of the world's most extensive dedicated data center facilities by raw square footage, 350 E Cermak Rd. This premier connectivity hub is one of the best-connected buildings in the country, providing access to every major carrier and private network in some capacity. Genesis Adaptive maintains a direct connection to 350 E Cermak from our data hub in Elk Grove Village - our largest PoP. Dedicated Servers, Cloud Services, IP Transit, peering, managed hosting, etc., are all available in our Chicago facility.
IP Transit services provided in Chicago benefit from a wide variety of direct and indirect peering relationships and a core PoP in the 100Gbps Genesis Adaptive backbone network. Our Cisco and Juniper-powered network interconnects to several internet exchanges in the Chicago metro, including the Equinix Chicago IX, UnitedIX, and AMS-IX, among others, ensuring your network is only one hop away from the vast majority of internet end users.
