Acquisition of 116,800 Sq. Ft. Facility Gives Equinix Additional Capacity for
Growth in High-Demand Market
Paris, FRANCE ? October 6, 2008 ? Equinix, Inc. (Nasdaq: EQIX), the
leading global provider of network-neutral data centers and Internet exchange
services, today announced that it has signed a long-term lease for a 116,800
square foot property in Paris adjacent to one of the company?s existing Internet
Business Exchange™ (IBX®) data centers in the Saint-Denis region.
The new property, which will become Equinix?s third data center in the Paris
market, will have capacity for two phases, the first of which is expected to
open in Q2 2009 with a total capital investment of approximately $30 - $35
million.

the Paris market, which is a strategic interconnection point for Internet
traffic in Europe,? said Eric Schwartz, president of Equinix Europe. ?This new
center is important for the continued growth of our customers in this market as
we expect our recently expanded Paris 2 center to be almost fully occupied by
the time our Paris 3 center is available for customer installations in the
second quarter.?
As previously announced, Equinix will provide an update of its outlook for 2008
and 2009 on its Third Quarter 2008 results call scheduled for October 22, 2008.
