Tonaquint rebrands as ValorC3 Data Centers

Jan. 20, 2025
The provider’s new name will focus on providing services to large enterprise vertical segments.

Tonaquint, which has served enterprises for over 17 years, has changed its name to ValorC3 Data Centers. The company says the move reflects its growing focus on colocation, cloud, and connectivity services for large-scale businesses.

ValorC3 will continue to hone its experience in serving enterprises in the healthcare, technology, energy and finance industries.

The company said the “C3” highlights Valor’s dedication to delivering dependable infrastructure across three core pillars – colocation, cloud and connectivity.

By setting a rapid growth strategy and accessing available capital, ValorC3it is also poised ValorC3 to meet the strong demand for infrastructure in new markets with build-to-suit capabilities.

Jim Buie, who became CEO of ValorC3 in October, said, “With the unveiling of ValorC3, we’re evolving to help our clients thrive in the data-driven age of AI.”

ValorC3 owns and operates data centers with cloud and connectivity solutions in St. George, Utah; Oklahoma City, Oklahoma; and Boise, Idaho, with available inventory and expansion capability at all locations. 

Over the past year, ValorC3 has continued to expand its data center footprint and service capabilities. In late 2023, the company purchased EdgeX Data Centers (EdgeX) in Oklahoma City, OK.

It has also enhanced its cloud capabilities by partnering with Megaport, a Network as a Service (NaaS) provider offering on-demand, software-defined networking solutions in its St. George, Utah Data Center.
