With our flexible setup, you can colocate and connect remotely, leveraging our growing infrastructure. Production-grade colocation services will be coming soon, expanding our offerings to meet even more demanding needs.
We are committed to transparency and will be listed on PeeringDB to foster open connectivity and community collaboration.
With the capacity to support additional racks and a growing focus on decentralized, community-based connectivity, MinakiLabs-IX aims to enhance peering solutions and internet exchange. We are also developing a relay system, allowing peers to connect directly to our IXP remotely, providing flexible solutions for network providers.
As an Internet Exchange Point (IXP), we prioritize collaboration and transparency. By partnering with us, you're not only ensuring reliable connectivity but also contributing to the development and innovation of decentralized infrastructure.
Introducing TechnoIXP: The BGP VPN Solution
As part of our continued commitment to enabling better connectivity for ISPs and network providers, we’re excited to announce TechnoIXP—a BGP VPN solution for organizations that can’t easily peer with traditional upstream providers.
TechnoIXP is designed to provide secure and reliable VPN-based BGP peering, giving smaller ISPs and networks access to interconnection services without the need for direct upstream peering. This platform will empower those who may not have the infrastructure to peer at larger IXPs or with Tier-1 providers, offering a cost-effective and accessible solution for exchanging traffic over a VPN.
By connecting to TechnoIXP, ISPs and businesses can:
- Establish secure BGP sessions via VPN.
- Access new peering options when traditional routes aren’t available.
- Improve network redundancy and reliability through decentralized, community-driven connectivity.
MinakiLabs-IX invites ISPs and network operators to join TechnoIXP as we roll out this innovative solution, expanding opportunities for decentralized peering and making high-performance connectivity accessible to all.
