— Uptime, Security, Connectivity and Performance Overtake Cost as Primary Drivers of Enterprise IT Decisions Across Cloud, Colocation and On-Prem Environments —

DENVER – (July 8, 2026) – CoreSite, an American Tower company (NYSE: AMT) empowering critical business and AI workloads that impact everyday life through interconnected data center solutions, today released its 2026 State of the Data Center Report, which examines how enterprise IT strategies are evolving as organizations enter a new phase of hybrid infrastructure management.

The seventh edition of the report shows that hybrid IT has become the standard operating model for enterprises – but that companies are still looking for the right hybrid IT mix. After years of cloud migration and hybrid adoption, organizations are shifting their focus from deciding whether to use cloud, colocation or on-premises infrastructure to determining which workloads belong in each environment.

As workloads become more distributed and AI drives greater infrastructure demands, enterprises are taking a more deliberate approach to workload placement, making decisions based on performance, security, data control and connectivity requirements rather than cost alone.

As the colocation market evolves beyond space and power, businesses are looking for data center providers with direct, low-latency connections to a robust ecosystem that offers the required uptime, cost efficiency and advanced cooling capabilities needed to support their hybrid IT strategies. “We believe that CoreSite’s recognition in the Gartner Market Guide validates our commitment to delivering highly interconnected, purpose-built data center campuses designed to meet the growing demands of modern enterprises,” said Juan Font, President and CEO of CoreSite and SVP of American Tower. “Our data center solutions combine security, compliance, scalability, connectivity and flexibility to enable true business agility, while offering the on-site technical expert.
