The deal is also an example of a strategic change in TierPoint’s acquisitions. Its early acquisitions focused on pure-play colocation companies, Philbert Shih, managing director at Structure Research, said. Cosentry, after acquiring the hosting business of Xiolink in 2014, has a mix of services that includes managed cloud, which is “an area that TierPoint has not yet entered but is likely to be working on.”
