IXP paradigm shift 

Internet is containerized Great Firewall of China Euro-InterNET initiative by some European leaders Turkish paid peering Ever changing market of IXP/ISP/CDN is disrupted again. Prices of global IP transit are very close or even lower then those of an IXP.

IXPs as center of excellence With Large BGP Communities in place, and biggest IXPs going global, a whole new market constellation is born. When DECIX, LINX, and AMSIX decided to go global (powered by Large BGP Communities), SOX decided to go bundle, for the benefit of its members. Promoting Internet Security, Quality, Reliability, Scalability, Operational efficiency, has always been the essence of IXP. Speaking about aforementioned topics is not enough, we are actually acting upon these guidelines.

PEERING (CONTENT) is the KING We have everything an ISP needs in one port (70% PEERING, 20% GLOBAL INTERNET, 10% anti-DDoS) In this way we are sending many new messages: Peering is more valuable then global Internet transit Peering is more secure then global Internet transit Peering is empowering network operators with tools, global Internet transit simply does not. Peering is mostly DDoS free, but if it isn't we have a solution

Paradigm shift We at SOX are promoting a whole new paradigm (aka a paradigm shift ;-) ): We sell peering, and we GIVE AWAY global Internet, and anti-DDoS service in a small % of total capacity.   Promoting Internet Security, Quality, Reliability, Scalability, Operational efficiency, has always been the essence of every IXP. Speaking about aforementioned topics is not enough, we are actually acting upon these guidelines. Rather new approach for us.
