Federal Communications Commission Approves CenturyLink-Savvis Merger

The Federal Communications Commission (FCC) approved the pending merger between CenturyLink and Savvis.

The merger previously received an early termination notice under the Hart-Scott-Rodino Act from the Department of Justice and the Federal Trade Commission. The companies expect to begin combining operations later this year. This integrated hosting business, which will operate under the Savvis brand for the foreseeable future, will be based in St. Louis and led primarily by key members of the Savvis leadership team.
