MIAMI–(Business Wire)–
Terremark Worldwide, Inc. (NASDAQ:TMRK), a leading global provider of managed IT

Access and Virtualization Technology Group. “Cisco Unified Computing System
innovations such as memory expansion and the Virtualized Network Interface Card,
combined with the power of the Intel Xeon 5600 series processor, have created
the highest performing system available to customers today. Cisco`s
architectural innovations make the Unified Computing System the ideal platform
for running today`s most important business applications.”

for mission-critical applications and IT infrastructure, combines the agility
and scalability of cloud computing with world-class datacenter and computing
infrastructure, access to more than 160 global networks and best-in-class

that includes comprehensive vulnerability assessments, log aggregation and event

provides them with an innovative and powerful solution to their IT
infrastructure needs,” said Rodolfo Garcia, President of Terremark`s Latin
