The rise of AI is reshaping digital infrastructure

Millions of AI models, smart devices, and next-gen transmission technologies are driving an unprecedented demand for secure, high-performance interconnection. How can seamless communication between AI agents, across clouds, networks, and data centers be ensured? How can companies future-proof their setup for the next wave of innovation?

The role of AI is growing. In the fast-approaching agentive AI era, AI agents – from cloud-based models to edge devices – will need communicate with people, with machines, and with each other effortlessly and in real time. By bundling AI networks and integrating fiber, 5G Advanced, and LEO satellite network technology with real-time inference infrastructure, AI-IX by DE-CIX provides a solid foundation for AI-driven applications.

Seamless interaction between autonomous vehicles, industrial robots, digital twins, and smart cities depends on three pillars:

  • Direct, low-latency peering between AI workloads and data sources
  • Ultra-secure pathways to protect sensitive model insights and personal data
  • Scalable routing fabric that adapts to spikes in training demands and live inference

The next step is to introduce Ultra-Ethernet. This new standard, currently under development, will enable AI training to be distributed, rather than using centralized data centers. AI training clusters can spread out across multiple data centers within a city, offering cost efficiencies and making the system more robust. This setup also supports businesses to build private AI clouds that offer enhanced data sovereignty and meet local rules and location-specific needs.

With various predictions made for millions – even hundreds of millions – of AI agents in the coming years, the need for interconnection services to support their operations is growing massively”
