ALPHARETTA, Ga., Dec. 01, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Summit, a leader in managed IT infrastructure, today announced its acquisition of HorizonIQ, a provider of high-performance bare-metal and private cloud platforms with a legacy rooted in Internap and SingleHop. Backed by Silver Oak Services Partners, LLC, this partnership brings together Summit’s data-center and managed services expertise with HorizonIQ’s automation-driven provisioning platform, making it easier for businesses to get the performance of bare metal with the speed and simplicity of the cloud.
By integrating HorizonIQ’s platform, Summit adds Proxmox to its private cloud portfolio, broadening deployment flexibility for enterprise and mid-market clients.
“Summit’s high-touch service and engineering depth, paired with HorizonIQ’s innovative automation expertise, strengthens our ability to provide the robust infrastructure and cloud solutions our clients rely on,” said Andre Wu, CEO of Summit.
The addition of HorizonIQ also expands Summit’s data center footprint and backup capacity, further strengthening reliability and performance across its global platform.
“From the beginning, HorizonIQ has focused on taking the complexity out of running dedicated infrastructure,” said Ali Marashi, President and CTO at HorizonIQ. “By joining Summit, we can bring that same simplicity and automation to a larger footprint of data centers and give customers more choice in how they deploy critical workloads.”
