Penang Internet Exchange (PIX)
Digital Penang partnered with DE-CIX to establish the Penang Internet Exchange (PIX). This localised network exchange effectively reduces internet latency, enabling accelerated data transfer.
The resulting improvement in the Internet user experience is poised to attract investments from Internet Service Providers (ISPs), Content Delivery Networks (CDNs), and various network operators.
