- •DE-CIX has launched a three-route gateway to Frankfurt, enhancing network resilience.
- •New connections reduce latency for Middle Eastern and Balkan networks significantly.
- •The infrastructure supports digital transformation and improves content access in Istanbul.
DE-CIX has completed a three-route backbone connecting Istanbul, Sofia, and Athens to Frankfurt, enhancing connectivity for Middle Eastern and Balkan networks. The new routes provide diverse pathways to DE-CIX Frankfurt, with latency under 40 milliseconds from Istanbul, 35 milliseconds from Sofia, and 50 milliseconds from Athens. This development is crucial as geopolitical risks and subsea cable disruptions increase, allowing operators to reroute traffic and maintain access to cloud and AI infrastructure. The Istanbul-Sofia link improves content availability in Istanbul, particularly for digital content and gaming services. DE-CIX has been active in the Middle East for over a decade and has become a major stakeholder in BIX.BG, which connects 136 networks. The new infrastructure aims to bolster digital transformation and AI service development in the Balkan region.
