AMS-IX - Internet Exchange
SELECTED OFFERING
Iron Mountain Data Centers, Interconnection
REQUIREMENTS
Scalability, Interconnection
THE CHALLENGE
AMS-IX, which has been operating at the core of the internet for more than 25 years, needed to find a trusted partner to help grow their peering interconnection at a massive scale. The organization's goal is to provide interconnection so that end-users enjoy fast, stable, cost-effective online experiences. Security, uptime, available ecosystems and a strategic location were key factors in their search for a data center.
THE RESULTS
With Iron Mountain, AMS-IX found the strategic Amsterdam location they were looking for, along with top-tier reliability, quality infrastructure and the highest levels of security. The strategic location, which is in close proximity to additional European ecosystems, will allow AMS-IX to grow even further in the future.
IN THEIR WORDS
“In a few short years, Iron Mountain and AMS-IX have achieved great things together, not only in terms of interconnection growth, which has been impressive, but in building a deep and innovative relationship where the levels of trust are high enough for us to try out new technologies and solutions together.”
