Pulsant buys Reading-based data centre

Hybrid-cloud and edge computing business Pulsant has completed the takeover of data centre and cloud services provider Amito.

According to the company, the acquisition is the latest move in its geographic expansion plans.

The buyout is Pulsant’s second in the past two months, following the acquisition of a Manchester data centre and associated clients from M247 Limited.

“The South East is a strategically important location for our clients and will continue to drive much of the UK’s economic activity,” said Rob Coupland, chief executive, Pulsant. “With Amito’s well established presence, we can continue to build the UK’s edge computing platform and bolster our scale and capacity in the region, this will become increasingly important as businesses embrace edge computing and demand increases.”
