AI-IX
The intelligent exchange of data
for the AI-driven present.
AI is transforming every industry, from manufacturing and mobility to healthcare, finance, retail, and logistics, bringing unprecedented demands for speed, proximity, and performance. To unlock the full value of AI, businesses must connect directly into the AI ecosystems, close to data, models, and compute.
AI‑IX by DE‑CIX provides routes for AI traffic and ultra‑low latency interconnection, optimized for training, inference, and real‑time AI services. By minimizing distance, hops, and congestion and maximizing security, resilience and performance, AI‑IX enables enterprises to run AI workloads with predictable and seamless performance.
How to master your AI Workloads
Sovereignty
AI‑IX keeps sensitive training and inference data on private, controlled paths. Enterprises maintain full control over data flows and meet compliance and security requirements.
Low Latency
AI‑IX enables direct, high‑performance connections so AI agents can access data instantly. This supports real‑time inference, faster decision making, and smoother AI agent interactions.
Scalability
AI‑IX scales with your AI workloads. It supports growing data volumes, larger models, and distributed architectures without compromising on your performance.
The AI-IX Ecosystem
AI‑IX is a central platform that brings together key players across the AI ecosystem. At the core of this ecosystem are two key services: DirectCLOUD, which provides private access to cloud data and services, and Cloud ROUTER, which orchestrates the exchange of data between clouds.
DirectCLOUD
Access to data and services in the clouds
DirectCLOUD provides private, high‑performance connectivity to leading cloud and AI platforms.
It ensures that AI workloads can reach the data, APIs, and models they depend on without using the public Internet.
Enterprises and their AI agents can connect directly to cloud services with predictable performance and full control over data flows.
Cloud ROUTER
Orchestrating data exchange between clouds
Cloud ROUTER enables different cloud platforms to exchange data directly with each other. This is essential for AI systems that combine services and resources across multiple clouds or rely on distributed AI agents.
Low‑latency and cloud‑to‑cloud communication are the foundation for real‑time AI interactions.
Powering the future of autonomous intelligence
By integrating modern connectivity technologies and private routing, AI‑IX provides the foundation for real‑time AI services. As new standards like Ultra Ethernet emerge and technologies evolve, AI‑IX supports distributed AI inference across multiple data centers with sovereign AI architectures.
AI‑IX is the interconnection platform that links AI workloads, data sources, and networks in one high‑performance environment. It ensures that AI agents, applications, and devices can exchange data instantly across clouds, data centers, and edge locations. In contrast to traditional Internet Exchanges or cloud‑only connectivity services, AI‑IX is purpose‑built for AI workloads, offering predictable performance, private pathways, and greater control over data movement.
AI‑IX delivers the technical backbone that modern AI ecosystems rely on, ensuring that data and workloads can move efficiently wherever they are needed.
“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.”
