VANCOUVER, British Columbia, Aug. 10, 2017 (GLOBE
NEWSWIRE) -- Uniserve Communications Corporation
(Uniserve) (TSX-V:USS) is pleased to announce the signing
of an agreement to act as CBRE Canada's data centre advisory
consultant for international clients seeking to establish data
centre infrastructure for large data analytics and storage in
Canada. Uniserve was selected because their new CEO, Nicholas
Jeffery, was previously the director of the data centre advisory
and transactional team in EMEA, based in London.
Uniserve will provide consulting services, market
dynamics, geographic, power, property, and connectivity analytics
to give international clients real time data about the
opportunities in the Canadian marketplace. The scope of the
services offered by Uniserve will cover:
1) Advisory services to define client requirements
and establish the best data centre strategy (hyper-scale cloud,
wholesale, retail co-location, build, or acquisition).
2) Provide an advisory service to international
prospects to help identify the best power source, property, and
pipe (internet connectivity) solutions.
3) Provide an advisory service to Canadian
enterprise and data centre customers regarding cloud migration and
infrastructure as a
service.
This supplements the portfolio of data centre
services already offered by CBRE Canada but brings new strategic
consulting options to better serve CBRE's clients.
Nicholas Jeffery, CEO of Uniserve, said, "This is
a logical extension of my previous role at CBRE in London. Canada
is in a perfect storm of data sovereignty, security, and cost of
power, as well as available space, which means global clients are
now keenly looking at the Canadian market. By working together,
with CBRE providing its real estate expertise and Uniserve on the
consulting side, we can provide data centre solutions that are
unrivalled in the marketplace."
