Innovation is in our DNA

HorizonIQ is the next evolution of two leaders in IT infrastructure and networking.

Founded in Seattle in 1996, Internap was a networking company on the forefront of connectivity with its patented Managed Internet Route Optimizer (MIRO) technology. This technology was so innovative that it was added to the Smithsonian’s permanent technology exhibit.

Internap evolved into a provider of high-performance internet infrastructure including colocation, managed services and hosting, cloud, and high-performance network services.

A Chicago-based hosting startup in 2006 quickly became recognized as a leader in managed hosting and infrastructure as a service, due to its proprietary automation engine, powerful portal, outstanding support, and fanatical customer base.

SingleHop was acquired by Internap in 2018, blending their highly automated hosting platform with Internap’s best-in-class networking technologies.
