How It Works

Anycast routes users to the location closest to them, automatically balancing traffic and improving network speed and performance. 

What is IX Peering?

Internet Exchange Points (IXPs) provide key connection points that facilitate efficient data transfer. When a provider directly connects to other networks in a local IX (peering), they “shorten” the distance between their own network and other local participating networks, allowing them to reach a local market with less latency, and often, reduced costs.
