DE-CIX expands DirectCLOUD in New York with a second Azure Onramp

DirectCLOUD Flex

DE-CIX has strengthened its DirectCLOUD service in the New York Metro with a second Microsoft Azure Onramp, supporting Microsoft’s ExpressRoute Metro strategy.

With dual onramps deployed across separate data centers in the metro, enterprises benefit from true metro-level redundancy, significantly higher availability, and a more resilient connectivity design than a single-site deployment.

This expansion delivers:

  • Improved SLAs through geographically distributed onramps
  • Secure, high-performance access to Microsoft Azure
  • A robust foundation for hybrid and multi-cloud architectures
  • Seamless access to DE-CIX’s broad cloud and interconnection ecosystem

A stronger, more resilient cloud gateway for the New York Metro built for enterprise-grade performance.
