VitalStream Holdings, Inc. (Nasdaq:VSTH), the world leader in audio and video streaming, today announced that its major build-out of its Amsterdam data center went live today as scheduled. The build-out substantially enhances the company's newest of its strategically located centers established throughout the US and Europe. VitalStream's overseas expansion, strengthened by its latest data center build-out, is a critical element of the company's business strategy to increase global revenue by broadening its footprint in new geographies and adding complementary technologies such as online ad-insertion solutions to its core content delivery business. VitalStream's growth within Europe is a result of growing demand fueled by global rich media requirements of both current and new blue-chip customers. "A growing pipeline of European enterprise customers have expressed interest in VitalStream's content delivery solutions, and our Amsterdam data center now enables us to begin meeting that demand starting today," stated Jack Waterman, chairman and chief executive officer of VitalStream. "We are fully committed to scaling our content delivery network and expanding our solution set as incremental revenue opportunities present themselves. Today's launch, combined with the integration and availability of ad-insertion technology acquired from Eonstreams, reflects that commitment, and we are confident that VitalStream is well positioned to capitalize on the tremendous growth opportunities in front of us." "Our Amsterdam data center enables us to originate content for all of Europe. This highly scalable facility has capacity equivalent to our largest data centers in the US and is intended to form the foundation for additional network expansion. We will take a measured, strategic approach to building out additional network capacity and data centers in Europe and in new territories based on additional demand globally," added Philip N.
