TCN is leveraging NYIIX with the help of JPIX via some transpacific connectivity.
DE-CIX has launched another regional internet exchange market. The global IX operator has established its latest IX in the city of Leipzig, Germany. The first two nodes will be located in the data centers of envia TEL and PŸUR Business, both of which will resell DE-CIX’s IX services.
