VANIX operates one of a number of Internet Exchange Points (IXPs) throughout Canada, which allow Internet Service Providers and content providers to keep local traffic local, within Canada. “The resulting shorter paths for exchanging traffic reduce latency for Canadian internet users thanks to our growing number of participants. IXPs like VANIX improve the user experience for all Canadians using the Internet, while also helping to reduce transit costs for network operators,” said Marilyn Hay, Board Chair at VANIX.
The VANIX community of peers is a strong, dependable, and diverse group of organizations dedicated to improving connectivity through collaboration and cooperation. This makes the exchange an oasis of neutrality within a competitive landscape, a key technology portal connecting Canada to the rest of the world, and a pivotal network meeting point on the west coast of North America.
