Accelerating AI with DE-CIX peering

Genesis Cloud

Munich-based Genesis Cloud supports their customers with the most demanding workloads in AI and high-performance computing (HPC) enabled data centers in the Nordics and is one of the most important NVIDIA partners in Europe.

Having set their infrastructure, the only challenge remained with the ever-growing demand for connectivity: Their customers transfer huge amounts of data to and from the cloud storage for AI training and they relied on transit providers, which resulted in large fluctuations in bandwidth demand. 

Scalable, compliant AI infrastructure backed by high-performance connectivity

Genesis Cloud was already using BULK’s data center in Kristiansand, and once DE-CIX expanded our interconnection ecosystem to the Nordics, it allowed Genesis Cloud to peer directly at DE-CIX Frankfurt.

GlobePEER Remote 10Gbit gives the cloud provider direct access from the BULK data center in Kristiansand to the peering infrastructure in Frankfurt. Data exchange is significantly more secure, more reliable – and at least 50% faster.

  • Reduced latency from an unstable 40 ms to a stable 20 ms.
  • Direct access to hyperscalers, including AWS.
  • All data being processed within Europe in compliance of GDPR and the EU AI Act.
  • The transparency of data transmission paths.
Our customers now benefit from reliable and even faster transfer of data to and from Kristiansand. In this way, AI startups and companies can book AI services at the best prices and at the same time meet compliance and ESG requirements.
