Equinix

With over 240 data centres spanning 31 countries , Equinix has a global ecosystem that ’ s larger than its next 10 market competitors combined .
Equinix provides its 10,000-strong customer base ( including giants like Google , AWS and Zoom ) with access to more than 2,000 network services , 3,000 cloud & IT services and 4,700 enterprises , just to name a handful .
With a total data centre space of 28M + sqft – representing the largest network of interconnected data centres in the world – it ’ s fair to say that Equinix has firmly cemented itself in the top spot .
And , having achieved consistent quarterly growth over the last 17 years ( a record that beats all the other companies Equinix shares the top S & P 500 with ), this growth isn ’ t set to slow down any time soon . Over the years , this REIT has largely built itself up by focusing on developing new assets from scratch and opportunistically choosing raw acquisitions .
