The Webinar will introduce Merit Colocation and Merit Storage Cloud, two
services built to help Merit Member organizations handle their computing
and storage needs.

Merit Colocation, operating from Merit's new Metro Detroit colocation
facility, provides a flexible, affordable way for organizations to
expand computing power without expensive facilities upgrades. The
facility is linked to Merit's backbone via a 10G fiber connection, and
bandwidth use for Merit Member organizations is aggregated under
existing dedicated connection agreements with On-Net Service. For
complete information, visit:

Merit Storage Cloud will provide storage-on-demand services with
industry-leading pricing and performance. We are currently gathering
subscriptions toward a minimum commitment level in order to initiate
service. For more information:
