Resolute CS and Equinix Bring Equinix Fabric® to the Enterprise Edge to Help Support Next Generation Workloads
LONDON and BOSTON, Jan. 15, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Resolute CS, a pioneering connectivity technology company, and Equinix, Inc. (NASDAQ:EQIX), the world's digital infrastructure company®, today announced a collaboration to automate design, pricing, and ordering of global last-mile access through Resolute NEXUS™. This will provide Equinix customers a consolidated experience to connect the enterprise edge into Equinix Fabric and onward to cloud environments — part of Equinix's industry-leading digital ecosystem.
While interconnection platforms have transformed cloud access inside and between data centers, the edge connectivity gap remains a challenge, sometimes slowing deployments, or increasing operational cost, and potentially limiting enterprise control of hybrid cloud environments.
Enterprises increasingly require last-mile solutions to maximize the operational and commercial value of their infrastructure and cloud investments. No single provider has a network everywhere, and expanding global reach traditionally requires manual sourcing projects with burdensome negotiation, opaque pricing, and inconsistent delivery.
"The industry has settled for fragmented, regional access solutions for too long," said Patrick C. Shutt, CEO and Co-Founder of Resolute CS. "We are breaking that model. Through this collaboration, we are empowering customers to design their network architecture without access constraints. With Equinix and Resolute NEXUS, customers can design, price, and order global last-mile access with full transparency — removing complexity, lowering costs, and replacing ad-hoc sourcing with a unified cloud-to-edge experience."
Maximizing Fabric and Cloud Investments
By closing the edge gap, enterprises unlock the full value of their network and cloud infrastructure — accelerating deployment, improving performance, and enabling long-term flexibility without ad-hoc sourcing.
"Customers want a seamless experience networking their infrastructure whether it's in the cloud, an Equinix data center, or on-premise," said Arun Dev, Vice President of Digital Interconnection at Equinix. "Our collaboration with Resolute CS expands the reach of Equinix Fabric, giving customers transparent access to thousands of leading network providers. This is essential for those building out distributed, multicloud networks."
This expanded reach is critical as enterprises look for a network enabled for next-generation AI workloads which, unlike traditional applications, are rarely centralized. Meeting these needs requires a new kind of infrastructure, one that is globally distributed, deeply interconnected, and built for performance at scale. With a fully programmable, AI-optimized network linking 270+ data centers across 77 markets, Equinix is uniquely positioned to unify these environments across geographies, enabling enterprises to connect more locations to each other and the cloud.
