OPERATING SEGMENTS
 
We operate in two business segments: data center services and IP services. The data center services segment includes colocation, hosting and cloud services.  Colocation involves providing physical space within data centers and associated services such as power, interconnection, environmental controls and security while allowing our customers to deploy and manage their servers, storage and other equipment in our secure data centers. Hosting and cloud services involve the provision and maintenance of customers’ hardware, operating system software, data center infrastructure and interconnection, while allowing our customers to own and manage their software applications and content.  Our IP services segment includes our patented Performance IP™ service, CDN services and IP routing and hardware and software platform.
 
The following table shows operating results for our business segments, along with reconciliations from segment profit to loss before income taxes and equity in (earnings) of equity-method investment:
