Peering and Transit
Within the Topic facet, Peering and Transit topic intelligence connects articles that share a specific subject, signal focus, or monitoring theme. The page gives readers a richer path through related reporting, source evidence, market actors, and infrastructure implications, with enough context to understand why the topic matters across company movements, governance decisions, regional exposure, and operational risk. Readers can compare recurring signals, affected organisations, public evidence, market context, service continuity, procurement, competition, compliance, and strategic planning questions behind the subject instead of stopping at a thin list of matching articles. It explains what the topic covers, which infrastructure actors or policies are involved, what evidence supports the coverage, and why the subject may matter for operators, customers, investors, and policy readers.

NZIX Maps the Front Door and Leaves the Failover Unwritten
On 12 November 2026 the New Zealand Internet Exchange's readable pages carried five Auckland facility rows, street by street, and a navigation line naming a Technical Guide, a Document Library and a Network Status page. They carried no route-server address, no sentence saying the…

Teraco itemises the megawatt and leaves the redundancy to a blog post
A critical-load number sits beside every named Teraco building, and in Johannesburg the arithmetic closes to the megawatt. The resilience arrangement behind those numbers closes nowhere: the same building's utility supply is stated in MW in one document and MVA in another, and…

The Route Server Promises One Thing Without Qualification and Two Things Politely
AMS-IX's Amsterdam route servers put every entity one BGP session away from every other entity. The specification underneath that session makes exactly one of the promises unconditional, and leaves the rest at the level of good manners.

Cogent Ran a Dividend on Cash Its Network Did Not Generate
On 4 November 2026 the board of Cogent Communications Holdings, Inc. voted to suspend the company's dividend program, and the release reporting it announced no further $0.02 quarterly payment. The cut is not the interesting part. The interesting part is that the arithmetic behind…

Fifteen Buildings and a Cable You Have to Buy Yourself
AMS-IX is not one room, and its own engineers say so plainly. What its published record refuses to say is how many rooms it is, or which one of them keeps your traffic alive.

Nebius Has Four Networks on Paper. The Addresses Say Three.
Nebius B.V. registers four autonomous systems with RIPE. Two of them fill one contiguous /19 between them, one declares five transit providers and originates nothing any monitor can see, and the American company's own system only appears when a monitor lowers its threshold. The…

Bangladesh Buys Bandwidth by the Year and Sells Cable Life by the Decade
Two landing stations, three consortium memberships and a pile of contracts that expire in the wrong order: the audited accounts of Bangladesh's cable company show the country's longest international commitments belong to capacity leaving the country, not to the capacity it uses…

India's Domestic Internet Rests on One Number Nobody Can Check
NIXI's exchange network is the institution meant to keep Indian traffic inside India. Its disclosed performance is a single maximum, taken over an unstated interval, and set against the regulator's bandwidth count it yields a figure too fragile to plan against.

Bangladesh Doubled Its Subsea Capacity and Left the Compass Pointing East
In June 2023 the country's landing party was running at 83.8% of its lit cable capacity. It then added 3,800 Gbps in a single upgrade, and its own annual reports show what that bought: a much bigger pipe, still pointed at Singapore.

Saudi Arabia's exchange publishes the lanes. The traffic is another matter.
One dated read of the Saudi Arabian Internet Exchange's own homepage yields an unusually complete inventory of installed hand-off capacity — and not one measured traffic figure. That gap, not the gigabit headline, is what a reader deciding whether to connect should price.

The Masthead Says 15.822 Tb/s. The Menu Has Eight Items.
Amsterdam's exchange puts one traffic figure above the fold and eight different connectivity products underneath it. Procurement decks quote the first. Almost nobody reads the second. That gap is a measurement problem, and it is now big enough to mislead a purchase decision.

APNIC Lists an Exchange as a Member. That Tells You Nothing About Its Traffic.
A membership row can be perfectly accurate and still prove nothing about a switching fabric. The Hong Kong Internet Exchange Limited is a clean test of where the record ends and the network begins.

Two Hours Fourteen Minutes: Everyone Could See the Hijack, One Company Could End It
At 18:47 UTC on Sunday 24 February 2008 a Pakistani operator announced YouTube's address block into the global routing table. Monitoring networks recorded it while it was still running. The withdrawal that ended it came two hours and fourteen minutes later, from a transit…

The Licence Answers. The Switch Doesn't.
On 24 July 2026 a deputy minister told Myanmar's parliament that licensed internet providers which leave subscribers without service will face legal action. That sentence names an operator. It says nothing about the exchange their traffic crosses — and that gap is where the real…

MIX Names Six Platforms and Fourteen Buildings. The Matrix Between Them Is the Part It Left Out.
The Milan exchange's front page, read on 10 November 2026, counts 469 networks, a 3890 Gb/s peak and 24.02 Tb/s of capacity — and publishes no line telling a buyer which platform sits in which building, or what a single order actually reaches.

Three Thousand Prefixes, No Address Book: What Brisanet Actually Declares
On the day Brisanet's third-quarter financials fell due, the sharpest public measurement of its network was a self-declared field list: 3,000 IPv4 prefixes, 1,000 IPv6 prefixes, 13 exchanges, nine facilities. It is a routing admission, not an asset register — and the one record…
