- How neutral Internet Exchanges boost ecosystem growth
- The importance of redundancy, both geographical and cross-vendor
- The impact of a complementary IX offering on the interconnection landscape
- Trends in data center investments and demand
- How distributed and neutral IXs can enable further growth in densely built environments where space is at a premium
