An Internet Exchange Point (IXP) is physical infrastructure where Internet Service Providers, content delivery networks, and cloud providers exchange traffic directly. IXPs reduce latency, lower costs, and improve bandwidth by enabling local peering instead of routing through distant networks.

Why do IXPs matter for GPU inference?

IXPs are critical for GPU inference because they minimize network latency between users and GPU clusters. Lower latency means faster time-to-first-token and better user experience for real-time AI applications. Proximity to major IXPs also reduces data transfer costs for high-throughput inference workloads.

Which is the largest IXP?

By participant count, IX.br São Paulo in São Paulo, Brazil is the largest tracked IXP with 2,800 participants and 25,000 Gbps peak traffic.
