Last Thursday, we held a small hackathon to prepare our micro-Internet workshop for @clt_news (CLT2026). Setting up the small Linux routers was a real blast with RouterKit, a framework for software routers currently under development. Thanks to every tasty dal from Maurice, we were able to hack late into the night. We are looking forward to CLT 2026 :)

Ende März findet wieder eine unserer Lieblingsveranstaltungen statt: die @clt_news. Auch dieses Jahr beteiligt sich DD-IX mit einem Workshop und einem Vortrag am Programm. @m4rc3l erklärt, wie mit ifstate und NixOS eine vollständig deklarative Netzwerkkonfiguration erreicht werden kann. Wenn du wissen möchtest, wie das Internet innerhalb der Default Free Zone (DFZ) funktioniert und welche Rolle ISP und IXP beim Routing spielen, besuche unseren µInternet-Workshop, der von @liske geleitet wird.

Vortrag: Deklarative Netzwerkkonfiguration mit NixOS https://chemnitzer.linux-tage.de/2026/en/programm/beitrag/321

Workshop: µInternet – Routing ohne Default Gateway https://chemnitzer.linux-tage.de/2026/en/programm/beitrag/329

Wir freuen uns auf dich! Auf der Website kannst du Vortrag und Workshop zu deinem Zeitplan hinzufügen. Unser µInternet-Workshop ist auf 30 Teilnehmer begrenzt.

Now, as 2025 draws to a close, we look back on the past year – what have we achieved, what were our highlights, and what are we especially grateful for?

We would also like to thank you all for your continued support! We look forward to 2026 and wish you all, as we say: "Einen guten Rutsch" :)

What an incredible week! As president of the "1 Terabit Club," I'm honored to welcome two new members: UAE-IX (powered by @decix) and the Internet Exchange Point of Nigeria (IXPN).

Both have made history by surpassing 1 Terabit per second of peak traffic for the first time. This brings our club's total membership to 70, proving the ever-growing importance of digital infrastructure like Internet Exchange Points (IXPs).

What an exciting day! Our CEO Ivo is officially opening the 30th anniversary @decix event right now. We're so excited to welcome over 500 customers, vendors, and partners who have come together to celebrate three decades of interconnection success and the vital role lour industry plays in society. Time to celebrate, network, and build the future together! #peeringfamily
Networks will connect differently in the future, using something called "IPv6-only Peering LANs" (this is a technical standard, RFC8950). We set up a LAN party to see how ready different tech companies are for this. The results show that some companies need to improve their support. #peeringfamily #euroix
Our interconnection platforms are constantly expanding. This growth is essential to provide increasing value to our customers through more traffic and a greater number of peers. The latest significant achievement we've observed is at @decix Dallas, which reached a new peak traffic of over 1.5 Tbps! This represents impressive growth, as we surpassed 1 Tbps in October 2024. We thank our customers for their traffic, trust, and business! #peeringfamily https://www.de-cix.net/en/locations/dallas/statistics
I will be attending @CloudFest(☁️🥳) tomorrow afternoon. I am looking forward to meeting many existing and potential new customers and vendors. Don't be shy—contact me if you want to see me! #peeringfamily
