It is precisely for this purpose that we are adding a new peering point to our existing network: the "DE-CIX", located in Frankfort. For the uninitiated, a peering point (or Internet Exchange Point) is a physical infrastructure on which several operators (often some Internet Access Providers) can be interconnected. Thanks to this new peering point, our customers benefit from a shortcut between the IKOULA network and that of other operators. Therefore, traffic is gaining speed, as DE-CIX is the most important peering point in the world in terms of traffic and number of international players connected.
Another improvement to our network is the arrival of a new IP transit provider: Hurricane Electric (10 Gb/s) , the fourth currently. Hurricane Electric is known as the largest IPV4 and IPV6 Transit network in the world.
