Download the economic summary of the full analyst report conducted by Enterprise Strategy Group/TechTarget on behalf of Equinix to review the detailed economic benefits realized by Equinix customers and understand the framework to evaluate the potential financial impact of Equinix Metal®.

Highlights:

  • 49% to 72% lower TCO compared to build it yourself (BIY) with capitalized hardware and software.
  • 98% to 202% return on investment.
  • 45% to 56% savings compared to public cloud infrastructure as a service (IaaS).
  • 6 to 12 months faster time to value (earlier recognition to revenue and benefits).
  • 7x to 11x lower and more predictable latency and networking costs, compared to public cloud and DIY sites.
