Data-center company Equinix Inc. (EQIX) said Tuesday that it has appointed Sandra Rivera to the board of directors, and that it has increased the board to 10 members from nine previously.

Ms. Rivera's appointment brings the total number of women on the board to two. Ms. Rivera currently holds the position of executive vice president and chief people officer at Intel Corp. (INTC), where she has served in multiple senior positions for 19 years, The Redwood City, California-based company said.

"Her background at Intel and other leading technology companies will bring a valuable perspective to the board as Equinix continues to develop its global interconnection and data center platform that is a key ingredient in the IT infrastructure of today's businesses," said Peter Van Camp, executive chairman at Equinix.
