New record at Europe’s largest Internet Exchange
A new data throughput record has been set at Europe’s largest Internet Exchange (IX), DE-CIX Frankfurt. In parallel to the quarter-final second leg of the UEFA Champions League, on April 16 at 9:21 p.m. (CEST), more than 17 terabits per second (Tbit/s) (to be specific, 17.09 Tbit/s) of data flowed over the IX for the first time. 17 terabits per second corresponds to 5.7 million videos in HD quality being streamed simultaneously. In an analog world, 17 terabits per second is equivalent to around 3.9 billion A4 pages of text – i.e. a stack more than 420 kilometers high, almost 50 times higher than Mount Everest. This means that data traffic at one of the world’s largest Internet Exchanges has increased by 20 percent overall since the beginning of 2023 and by almost 60 percent since the beginning of 2022. Looking at the past five years, data throughput at DE-CIX Frankfurt has almost tripled.
