Companies expanding abroad have long faced a version of the same math problem. Every new market means a new vendor, a new contract, a new currency, and a new set of compliance boxes to tick. Multiply that across three or four regions and a company can burn months just on procurement before a single server goes live.
MedOne, widely recognized as a leading data center provider, has now changed that equation. Through a new strategic partnership with Digital Realty, the world's largest data center network operator, MedOne customers can deploy infrastructure across more than 300 data centers, spanning over 55 metro areas in more than 30 countries and six continents, all through one local point of contact and a single monthly invoice in local currency.
The scale here is worth sitting with for a moment. Digital Realty carries a $79 billion enterprise value with an investment-grade credit rating, and serves more than 5,000 active global organizations, including financial institutions, cloud providers, and government agencies. Its network runs 231,000 cross-connect ports and links into 305-plus cloud on-ramps through ServiceFabric®, its proprietary connectivity fabric, giving direct, encrypted access into AWS, Microsoft Azure, and Google Cloud without traffic ever touching the public internet.
On raw capacity, Digital Realty reports roughly 2,980 megawatts of active IT capacity currently in operation, with another 730 megawatts under construction and 475 megawatts available for near-term deployment, based on the company's most recently published figures from September 2025. IDC MarketScape independently ranks Digital Realty as the number one colocation provider in the United States, which matters because that's a third-party analyst verdict, not a marketing claim.
MedOne's own numbers explain why it's positioned as the natural local gateway into that network. The company operates six underground data center facilities inside Israel, backs its services with a 99.999% uptime SLA, and holds a certification stack that includes ISO 27001 for information security, ISO 22301 for business continuity, ISO 27017 for cloud security, ISO 27799 for healthcare data protection, SOC 2, and formal GDPR compliance approval. MedOne also holds a Vital Enterprise Approval from Israel's Emergency Economy authority, a designation tied to infrastructure the state considers essential during national emergencies.
Companies expanding internationally typically run into three specific obstacles: operational complexity from managing multiple vendors, difficult negotiations with unfamiliar foreign providers, and legal uncertainty around foreign currency billing and cross-border tax exposure. MedOne's partnership with Digital Realty is structured to remove all three at once rather than patch around them individually.
Instead of separate agreements with local vendors in New York, Frankfurt, and Singapore, a MedOne customer works through a single deployment architecture, a single quote, and one consolidated invoice denominated in shekels rather than a mix of dollars, euros, and whatever currency the next regional vendor happens to bill in. Compliance and security review also stay local: MedOne's team handles regulatory alignment for each deployment, drawing on its own certification experience with Israeli banking, privacy, and government-sector requirements.
The onboarding process runs in four defined stages. First, a planning meeting where MedOne's technical team translates a company's location, capacity, connectivity, and compliance needs into an actual deployment architecture. Second, a complete quote in local currency covering every cost across every location, with foreign exchange risk removed from the equation entirely. Third, deployment onto Digital Realty's PlatformDIGITAL®, which can mean anything from a single rack in Singapore to a private hall in Frankfurt, managed through one unified portal. Fourth, ongoing support and one monthly invoice, backed simultaneously by MedOne's local team and Digital Realty's staff at each physical site.
PlatformDIGITAL® runs on Digital Realty's patented PDx® methodology, short for Pervasive Datacenter Architecture, engineered to keep deployments consistent regardless of which of the 300-plus facilities a company ends up using. The platform also supports Sovereign AI and Private Cloud configurations for organizations facing strict data residency mandates, an increasingly common requirement among European and public-sector clients.
MedOne is explicit that this isn't a universal upgrade for every client, and the use cases line up with specific operational pressures rather than general marketing appeal.
Multinationals headquartered in Israel gain centralized visibility over global infrastructure without juggling separate regional dashboards, plus support during their own business hours instead of a foreign provider's. SaaS and technology companies with international users can deploy edge nodes in APAC, Europe, or Latin America without establishing a local legal entity solely to sign a colocation contract. Financial and fintech firms can deploy in Frankfurt, London, or New York for low-latency trading needs while satisfying DORA, MiFID II, or PCI-DSS documentation requirements through a partner that already understands those frameworks. And organizations building disaster recovery plans can locate DR sites in Frankfurt, Amsterdam, or Cyprus with defined recovery time and recovery point objectives, managed centrally through MedOne rather than negotiated separately abroad.
The timing lines up with broader momentum in Israel's data center sector. Independent market analysts have tracked compound annual growth rates in the high teens to low twenties for Israel's colocation and data center market over the coming years, driven primarily by cloud migration and AI workload demand. Tel Aviv now appears as a recognized metro on Digital Realty's own global network map, listed alongside Frankfurt, Singapore, London, and New York, a detail that signals how international infrastructure providers increasingly treat Israel as a core market rather than a peripheral one.
For MedOne's existing and prospective clients, the partnership effectively answers a question that used to require months of vendor research: how does an Israeli company get real, compliant, enterprise-grade infrastructure in dozens of countries without building a global procurement operation from scratch. The answer now runs through one local contract, one local invoice, and a network built by the largest data center operator in the world.
