DE-CIX has pushed its expansion forward with its newest internet exchanges in Esbjerg and Copenhagen, Denmark. The IXs are now ready for service in the data centres of Bulk Data Centers and Digital Realty, with more enabled sites to be announced in due course.

These internet exchanges are based on the DE-CIX Apollon Interconnection and cloud platform, which includes cloud routing services for companies to manage their hybrid and multi-cloud scenarios and gain control of their data beyond the public internet. With the approach of one access, all clouds, and every network, it is bringing its InterconnectionFLEX service to Denmark, providing enterprises with an interconnection package as a solution for peering, cloud connectivity, and private network interconnects.

Customers can have direct access to over 50 clouds, 2,000+ local and international networks, and over 250 data centres in Germany, Southern Europe, Asia, and the US.
