FAQ
Let's answer your questions
Find answers to the most frequently asked questions about our IX services.
An Internet Exchange (IX) or Internet Exchange Point (IXP) is a physical infrastructure which lets Internet service providers (ISPs), content delivery networks (CDNs), and other network providers exchange Internet traffic with one another, typically on a cost-neutral basis. Being connected to the infrastructure allows each network to connect to other networks and share traffic (also known as "peering").
Latency is the delay between a user's action and the response to that action from a website or an application – in networking terms, the total round-trip time (RTT) it takes for a data packet to travel. It is measured in milliseconds and Internet quality depends on it – the lower the latency, the better the user experience.
IP transit is a service where a network pays another network for Internet access (or transit), also known as upstream. Peering is when networks exchange traffic between each other freely (settlement-free), and for their mutual benefit.
