Network equipment
Servers, switching, optics and the systems required to operate the exchange fabric.
SUPPORT THE BUILD
EasyIX is being built independently to make network interconnection simpler and more accessible. Voluntary contributions help fund the infrastructure and systems required to bring the exchange online and keep developing it.
WHERE YOUR SUPPORT GOES
We're keeping the initial build focused: network infrastructure first, then the automation and operational systems that make connecting to EasyIX straightforward.
Servers, switching, optics and the systems required to operate the exchange fabric.
Deployment, hosting, connectivity and the practical costs of bringing exchange locations online.
BGP route-server infrastructure, monitoring and supporting network services.
The member platform, provisioning automation and operational visibility around the exchange.
PHASE 1
We're currently working through the first EasyIX infrastructure build. A public funding target and progress figure will be added once the remaining deployment costs have been finalised.
The first phase is about getting a solid exchange foundation online before expanding the platform.
Rather than publish an arbitrary target, we'll publish the Phase 1 budget when the remaining equipment, hosting and connectivity costs are confirmed.
INFRASTRUCTURE PARTNERS
We're also interested in hearing from network operators, hosting providers, datacentres and technology vendors that may be able to support EasyIX with infrastructure, connectivity, hardware or services.
