Cloud Connectivity Services
As a cloud-neutral interconnection partner, DE-CIX has access to hundreds of data centers and all major as well as numerous smaller cloud providers.
From communications and data storage to application development, the cloud offers ground-breaking opportunities for businesses across all industries. As a private direct connection that bypasses the public internet, the DirectCLOUD service minimizes downtime and guarantees a continuous connection to your chosen cloud service providers on the DE-CIX Cloud Exchange.
The service, developed by DE-CIX and Microsoft in close collaboration, provides you with a reliable and optimized connection to Microsoft's cloud services and improves the user experience by choosing the shortest route from your location to the nearest Edge PoP on the Microsoft network.
Peering Services
Peering optimizes performance by bypassing congested paths and improving the quality of traffic. It is used for important traffic and offers benefits such as reduced latency and improved user experience.
The GlobePEER service connects you to thousands of networks on the industry's most advanced platforms and not only helps you increase revenue and reduce costs - it also reduces latency, increases the stability of your network and improves the user experience.
You simply use your existing access at one of the DE-CIX Internet Exchanges to peer remotely at the other connected locations. For example, you can peer in New York with your access in Düsseldorf or in Palermo with your access in Madrid.
With just one additional VLAN, you can be offered direct access to these networks via DE-CIX DirectROUTES - with flexible bandwidths and termination conditions, without any additional contract negotiations.
Closed User Groups enable the seamless and private interconnection of multiple networks on the DE-CIX platform. Benefit from a trusted, reliable and secure interconnection environment accessible from hundreds of interconnected data centers.
