Cologix Torix Case Study
Internet Exchange Case Study The Toronto Internet Exchange (TorIX) is the largest IX in Canada with more than 175 peering participants benefiting from lower network costs & faster speeds The non-profit Toronto Internet Exchange (TorIX) is a multi-connection point enabling members to use one hardwired connection to exchange traffic with 175+ members on the exchange. With peering participants swapping traffic with one another through direct connections, TorIX reduces transit times for local data exchange and cuts the significant costs of Internet bandwidth. The success of TorIX is underlined by its tremendous growth, exceeding 145 Gbps as one of the largest IXs in the world. TorIX is in Cologix’s data centre at 151 Front Street, Toronto’s carrier hotel and the country’s largest telecommunications hub in the heart of Toronto. TorIX members define their own routing protocols to dictate their traffic flow, experiencing faster speeds with their data packets crossing fewer hops between the point of origin and destination. Additionally, by keeping traffic local, Canadian data avoids international networks, easing concerns related to privacy and security. Above: In Dec. 2014, TorIX traffic peaked above 140 Gbps, with average traffic hovering around 90 Gbps. Beginning Today Launched in July 1996 Direct TorIX on-ramp in Cologix’s151 Front Street Ethernet-based, layer 2 connectivity data centre in Toronto TorIX-owned switches capable of handling Second largest independent IX in North America ample traffic Operated by telecom industry volunteers IPv4 & IPv6 address provided to each peering Surpassed 145 Gbps with 175+ peering member to use on the IX participants, including the Canadian Broke the 61 Gbps mark in Jan.

QIX & Cologix Connect Together
QIX & Cologix Connect Together The Montreal Internet Exchange (QIX) delivers faster, higher-performing Internet access, while working towards a more robust Internet across all of Canada On April 23, 2013 the Montreal Internet exchange launched with nodes at both 625 and 1250 Rene-Levesque Boulevard West and support from the Quebec Scientific Information Network (RISQ) and Cologix. QIX works to establish a new era in neutral interconnection in Quebec by enabling streamlined, settlement- free peering relationships to ultimately build a more robust Internet across Canada. By exchanging traffic directly, there are fewer nodes (or routers and switches) for IP traffic to traverse, which creates a faster and more efficient path. QIX traffic is exchanged locally in Quebec, while non-QIX traffic that originates in Quebec is often routed to major networking hubs like Toronto or Chicago, then back to Quebec. This unnecessary routing ultimately diminishes network performance and the end-user experience while increasing latency, costs and risk. “Just 18 months after launching QIX, the exchange has broken through key milestones to firmly establish itself as a sustainable and growing exchange. More than 40 members, exhibiting a healthy mix of ISPs, metro networks, content and hosting, have deployed over 180 Gbps of capacity into the exchange. We have blown past the traffic litmus test of 20 Gbps and are poised for further growth.” – Sylvie LaPerriere, QIX Board of Directors Chair & Interconnection Relations at Google Inc. Above: In weeks 47-50 of 2014, or Nov. 17-Dec. 14, QIX peering traffic peaked at 25+ gigabytes/second. 30+ Network Neutral Data Centers Throughout North America Ashburn • Columbus • Dallas • Jacksonville • Lakeland • Minneapolis New Jersey • Montreal • Toronto • Vancouver “The success thus far is a credit to the Internet community in Montreal and our partners at Cologix and RISQ, and demonstrates the value of interconnecting closer to the edge of the network.” – Sylvie LaPerriere, QIX Board of Directors Chair & Interconnection Relations at Google Inc.

Montreal Internet Exchange Reaches Milestone on Path to New Peaks, Reinforcing the Value of Independent Internet Exchange Model
MONTREAL INTERNET EXCHANGE REACHES MILESTONE ON PATH TO NEW PEAKS, REINFORCING THE VALUE OF INDEPENDENT INTERNET EXCHANGE MODEL QIX attracts 50 peering members who realize localized, optimized network performance and reduced costs DENVER and MONTREAL – April 13, 2016 – Network, content and Internet service providers continue to ramp up interest in the independent, member-run Internet exchange model employed by the Montreal Internet Exchange (www.qix.ca), a non- profit organization working to create a more robust, high-performing Internet in the province of Quebec. QIX recently reached 50 peering members, including some of the largest content providers and cloud service providers in the world. “It has been immensely gratifying to see QIX establish itself as a key exchange point, with traffic peaking over 35 gigabits per second (Gbps),” commented QIX Board of Directors Chair and Interconnection Relations at Google Inc. Sylvie LaPerriere. “This progress underscores the value of QIX as an important component of the Internet fabric serving Eastern Canada and the growth of traffic localization at the Internet’s edge. QIX members are finding accelerated traffic flow, reduced IP transit costs and enhanced data sovereignty through the peering arrangements facilitated by QIX. The strong upticks in membership levels and aggregate traffic are a testament to the significance of Montreal on the overall network map.” QIX launched in April 2013 with nodes at both 625 and 1250 Rene-Levesque Boulevard West and support from the Quebec Scientific Information Network (RISQ) and Cologix. QIX traffic is exchanged locally in Quebec, while non-QIX Internet traffic that originates in Quebec is often routed to major networking hubs like Chicago and New York City, then back to the end- user in Quebec.
