The traffic exchange points operator De-cix has announced that its interconnection ecosystem is ready to launch its first internet exchange point for AI, Ai -ixafter finishing phase 1 of its implementation.
With this point, aimed at facilitating high performance inference for AI agents, De-Cix already connects more than 50 relevance networks for AI on its platform. Among them are inference providers such as Service and GPUs as a service, as well as various cloud service providers. The platform already integrates more than 160 access points to the cloud worldwide and has a patented and highly scalable cognitive routing technology.
Thanks to this, De-Cix can offer a resilient interconnection, with low and high safety, specifically designed for real-time use cases. This evolution is available both at the main traffic exchange point in Europe, which is located in Frankfurt (Germany), as in all the world’s De-Cix locations.
Phase 2 of the deployment of this exchange point for AI will be carried out soon, also worldwide such as phase 1, and will make the exchanging points of the de-cis ready for Ultra Ethernet and are able to support the training of geographically distributed, as the training models training begins to move outside facilities and centralized points.
During the same, the attention will focus in the training of AI models. With the arrival ofl Ultra Ethernet, a new protocol for relevant data traffic for AI, infrastructure design that satisfies the high requirements for facilitate Artificial Intelligence Training It is changing.
According to him Cto de De-Cix, Thomas Kingabout what this new protocol for AI supposes, «up to atime, huge centralized data centers were needed to quickly process computer loads in parallel clusters. He Ultra Ethernet is promoting the tendency towards disaggregated computer science, allowing AI training to be carried out geographically distributed within aa same metropolitan area. This will revolutionize infrastructure for AI training and offer companies new alternatives to design a private AI infrastructure resilient And more profitable«.
Ivo Ivanov, CEO de de-Cixhas stressed that «con The various predictions made for millions, even hundreds of millions, of AI agents in the coming years, the need for services for Interconnection that support your operations is growing greatly. In order for companies to take advantage of AI, the digital vital line consists of three elements, which I like to call the digital triangle of the inference interconnection of AI«.
For Ivanov, these elements are the millions of agents that are currently emerging, many of them multimodals; the devices and applications based on AI; and modern transmission technologies, such as fiber, advanced 5g and Leo satellite networks). These three elements must intertwine in a reliable and safe way, and with a high performance through direct interconnection (peering). And Ivanov emphasizes that «this It is the main advantage ofl De-cix ai -ix, which uses exclusive router De-Cix ai to allow an inference multiagent Uninterrupted For complex current use cases and future innovation in all industrial segments”.
