Elea, which had already been identified as a rising star in 2024, was included in the Colocation Services quadrant as a leader due to its technical and strategic aspects, which demonstrate its ability to meet the demands of the colocation market. The quadrant evaluates providers that offer facilities including secure access control, redundant power sources, fire suppression systems, air cooling, cloud connectivity, security certificates, and AI-ready infrastructure.
