发生了什么：LINX 接管肯尼亚的 Asteroid 网络
伦敦互联网交换中心（LINX）与 Asteroid 达成合作协议，以加强东非的互联互通。从现在到今年年底，Asteroid 将把其在蒙巴萨和内罗毕的客户网络迁移至 LINX 的互联枢纽。
两家公司将支持无缝迁移，Asteroid 在建立本地基础设施后将缩减运营，而 LINX 则提供 24/7 的工程支持以及私有 VLAN 和 Microsoft Azure Peering Service（MAPS）等服务。 另见: Ziggo集团任命领导人，备战2027年阿姆斯特丹上市.
该协议标志着又一次成功的交接，Asteroid 在退出其第三个孵化的互联市场后，客户将通过 LINX 在英国、美国和即将在加纳的枢纽访问全球对等互联。 另见: Alejandro Estua.

为何重要
该协议显示非洲数字网络发生了重大变化。区域性交换中心通常先启动互联系统，随后将其与更大的全球参与者连接。LINX 现在正凭借强大的技术和本地知识进入东非。这有助于其扩展服务并保持肯尼亚网络的稳定。 另见: 亚历杭德罗·曼佐.
此举也有助于需要快速可靠连接的运营商。随着越来越多的人使用云服务、流媒体平台和跨境流量，他们需要这样的连接。通过这一步，LINX 扩大了其覆盖范围。Asteroid 随后可以专注于在其他市场建立新的交换中心。 另见: 亚历杭德罗·埃尔南德斯.
这种建立和移交的循环可能会改变互联网交换中心的发展方式。非洲互联网社区正在寻求更强的对等互联和区域层面的更多控制。这种合作伙伴关系可能会促使其他互联网交换点尝试相同的路径。这也可能为整个地区的用户带来更广泛的接入和更好的网络性能。 另见: 亚历杭德罗·加尔萨.
