Thompson Street Capital Partners (TSCP) and Charterhouse Group, Inc. (Charterhouse), in partnership with Cequel III, a St. Louis-based management and investment firm, have acquired AdHost. The Seattle-based AdHost is a data center provider delivering complete server colocation, virtual cloud servers and managed server solutions via three secure, carrier-neutral data centers.
