HostDime’s purpose-built, carrier-neutral data centers provide direct access to Internet Exchange Points (IXPs), enabling fast, resilient, and cost-effective interconnection. Whether you're a network operator, CDN, enterprise, or AI provider, our IXP ecosystem is built for modern infrastructure demands.
What Is an Internet Exchange Point (IXP)?
An Internet Exchange Point is a physical infrastructure where networks connect to exchange traffic. Instead of routing through third-party transit providers, IXPs enable local, direct peering — minimizing latency, reducing costs, and improving network stability.
Benefits of an IXP
- Faster network performance with lower latency
- Improved routing efficiency
- Reduced upstream transit fees
- Localized traffic exchange for better control
Why Use a Carrier-Neutral Data Center?
Carrier-neutral facilities give you freedom to choose from dozens of providers. HostDime’s infrastructure allows direct connection to IXPs, dark fiber transport, and flexible interconnection options without vendor lock-in.
Key Advantages
- Choose your ideal carrier mix
- Instantly switch providers for redundancy
- Improve cost control and routing flexibility
