In 2011, INAP launched the world's first commercially available OpenStack Cloud Compute service. In June 2011, the INAP Santa Clara data center became the first commercial data center in the U.S. to achieve the Green Building Initiative's Green Globe certification.

Mike Ruffolo was president and CEO from May 2015 until September 2016. He was a member of the company's board of directors. Previously, he was president and CEO of Crossbeam Systems, Inc.

On February 28, 2018, Internap acquired SingleHop for $132 million in cash.

On March 16, 2020, Internap Technology Solutions, Inc. and six affiliated companies filed Chapter 11 bankruptcy in the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York. The company emerged from bankruptcy on May 11, 2020.

Less than a month after emerging from bankruptcy, on June 2, INAP announced that it sold its colocation business located at 1301 Fannin St, Houston TX, to Netrality.

On July 1, 2021, INAP sold Ubersmith to Lumine Group for an undisclosed amount. The following month, on August 2, Leaseweb acquired INAP's Canadian data centres, then operating under the iWeb name.

On September 28, 2022, INAPs product "ServerIntellect" was the target of a ransomware attack that affected their multitenant website, database, and email hosting services causing data loss for those services. As a result, INAP discontinued multitenant hosting services. INAP removed the original ransomware incident report from their "Operational Transparency" page on October 5, 2022. Techradar published an article speculating that INAP's removal of the original incident report was an attempt to conceal the full effects of the ransomware attack.
