Internap Network Services, a provider of intelligent IT Infrastructure services, today announced that its Santa Clara data centre has been awarded LEED certification by the U.S. Green Building Council. LEED is one of the primary rating systems for the design, construction and operation of energy-efficient buildings. 

In addition to receiving LEED certification, Internap's Santa Clara data centre became the first commercial data centre in the U.S. to achieve the Green Building Initiative's Green Globe certification in June 2011. The SOC2-compliant data centre offers Internap's full platform of IT Infrastructure services -- from public and private cloud, managed hosting and colocation to a global Content Delivery Network (CDN) and route-optimized IP transit.
