Stream Data Centers has appointed Yvonne Deir as vice president of hyperscale leasing and development to support the operator’s strategic goals across hyperscale and cloud.

Prior to joining Stream, Deir served as the strategic director of sales, west region, for recently sold data centre REIT CoreSite Realty Corporation (NYSE: COR).

She has also served as the director of sales, west region, for Aptum (formerly Peer1Network) a global hybrid multi-cloud managed service provider.

Commenting on her appointment, Deir said: “I was drawn to Stream as my next step not only because of its dedicated service style and robust suite of high-quality solutions, but because of the quality of its customer base. 90% of Stream’s capacity is leased by Fortune 100 companies, and it’s meeting this challenge of delivering the right capabilities to the world’s most demanding customers that excites me.

“Stream has proven that it can provide exceptional support to customers’ digital transformations, and I look forward to complementing that existing talent with what I can bring to the company.”

Rob Kennedy, Co-Managing Partner of Stream, added: “Adding Yvonne to the team is a great testament to what Stream has built over the past 22 years in the data centre industry. Continuing to attract highly sought-after top performers like Yvonne is the key to delivering the results our customers have come to expect.

“Yvonne’s cloud and hyperscale expertise aligns well with our portfolio and serving offerings, and we look forward to seeing how her individual perspective supports a new phase of success.”

Stream Data Centers has recently appointed Tejo Pydipati to the position of SVP of Design and Construction, a role previously under Chris Kincaid, who was last July promoted to SVP of Development.

Stream Data Centers has recently announced the commissioning of a new 418,000-square-foot hyperscale data centre in Goodyear, Arizona, where at full build, the location will be the region’s largest multi-tenant data centre campus.

Stream is also expanding its footprint with a second data centre in Chicago’s Elk Grove Village with a 32 MW data centre campus ready for early occupancy in 2Q22.

Founded in 1999, the company has acquired, developed and managed 24 data centre campuses across the US, with 90% of the inventory leased to Fortune 100 customers.
