BULK-DATA-CENTERS
30.11.2021 08:07:05 CET | Business Wire | Press release
DE-CIX , the world’s leading Internet Exchange (IX) operator and home to the largest carrier and data center neutral interconnection ecosystem globally, today announces its expansion to the Nordic region. DE-CIX has partnered with Bulk Data Centers , which will house DE-CIX IX platforms in Oslo, Norway (OS-IX), Kristiansand, Norway (Campus N01), as well as in Esbjerg, Denmark (Campus DK01). DE-CIX will also be opening IX platforms in Finland.
DE-CIX’s expansion into the Nordic region will open the Nordics to international customers, providing 100 percent green-powered Internet Exchanges through Bulk’s data centers. In addition, local Nordic customers will now get faster and more efficient access to global internet exchange services.
“The Nordic region comprises some of the world’s most highly developed digital markets,” says Ivo Ivanov, CEO of DE-CIX International, on the company’s expansion to Northern Europe. “However, the interconnection infrastructure available in the region does not match the digital maturity of the economy in the Nordics. DE-CIX has seen strong support from the Nordic data center community for our plans to expand to the region, in which we will localize our interconnection capabilities for these markets, at the same time as integrating them into the DE-CIX European and trans-continental interconnection ecosystem,” Ivanov explains.
For the market entry into the Nordics, Bulk Data Centers, a part of Bulk Infrastructure Group, will be the initial partner supporting DE-CIX from Day 1. Bulk Infrastructure is Norway’s leader in building and operating sustainable digital infrastructure, data center, colocation, fiber network and industrial real estate. The DE-CIX interconnection platforms will be available in the Bulk data centers in Oslo (OS-IX) and Kristiansand (Campus N01) (Norway), as well as Esbjerg (Campus DK01) (Denmark).
“This partnership with DE-CIX will further enhance the options for customers to interconnect and access a range of services in addition to the already low latency access to major markets combined with the greenest cheapest energy in Europe,” says Gisle M. Eckhoff, Executive Vice President Data Centers at Bulk Infrastructure. “We are seeing an increase in demand for low cost, highly sustainable solutions and with these new DE-CIX Nordics locations we are helping to support that gravity shift North. We are delighted to build on our previous investments to unlock the potential of the Nordics and look forward to working with DE-CIX to enable more customers to take advantage of renewable, long term sustainable data centers.”
The Internet Exchange operator’s expansion to Norway, Denmark and Finland will serve the regional connectivity needs, boosted by new transatlantic and intercontinental submarine cables bridging the Nordics with North America and Asia. DE-CIX will fully integrate the Nordic exchanges into the company’s existing leading carrier and data center neutral interconnection ecosystem – the largest such in not only Central and Southern Europe, consisting of more than 10 IXs (2100+ connected networks), but also North America, with currently 5 IXs (400+ connected networks).
The new DE-CIX Internet Exchanges in the Nordics will have presences in all relevant data center facilities in the respective markets.
With the new DE-CIX IX platforms in Norway, Denmark and Finland, the company is extending its global footprint to overall 32 locations in Europe, North America, the Middle East, and Asia. The combined connected customer capacity of all DE-CIX locations worldwide exceeds 85 Terabits, making it the largest neutral interconnection ecosystem in the world.

NetApp Delivers Secure, Zero-Copy Data Activation for the Agentic Enterprise29.9.2026 19:30:00 CEST | Press release
Enterprises will be empowered to accelerate AI innovation to machine speed NetApp® (NASDAQ: NTAP), the Intelligent Data Infrastructure company, today announced new capabilities that enable enterprises to accelerate their adoption of agentic AI with secure, in-place, zero-copy data activation. The heterogeneous metadata capability of NetApp AI Data Engine (AIDE) helps organizations discover, understand, govern, and operationalize data where it lives, while an expanded integration with Commvault connects the NetApp Platform with Commvault recovery orchestration workflow to help customers detect attacks earlier and recover cleaner data faster. As AI agents move from experimentation into production, enterprise data infrastructure has become a critical business dependency. Agents can read, retrieve, and act on data at machine speed, but most enterprise data estates were built for human-paced workflows: fragmented across file, object, cloud, on-premises, and sovereign environments; governed

The NetApp Platform also provides built-in proactive data protection capabilities and data replication to support SAP’s global availability model. “SAP and NetApp share a long-standing commitment to empower the world’s most mission-critical enterprise environments,” said Álvaro Celis, Senior Vice President, Chief Commercial, Partner
NetApp Removes Storage Bottleneck for AI Factories29.9.2026 19:30:00 CEST | Press release
New architecture delivers fastest storage on the planet, designed to maximize GPU utilization and architected for up to 100 TB per second aggregate throughput NetApp® (NASDAQ: NTAP), the Intelligent Data Infrastructure company, today announced NetApp Novus™, the fastest storage on the planet designed for AI infrastructure providers operating large GPU environments. Built to support a zettabyte-scale file system, this next-generation architecture will allow AI factories to keep millions of GPUs continuously fed with data, maximizing the efficiency, utilization, and profitability of their investments. Neoclouds and GPU-as-a-Service providers are building AI factories at a scale that traditional storage architectures were never designed to support, creating bottlenecks that reduce GPU utilization and increase infrastructure costs. Under traditional architectures, GPU utilization can drop below 30 percent when AI factories cannot feed enough data to their GPUs to generate the results they
NetApp Empowers Enterprises to Build Anything, Anywhere29.9.2026 19:30:00 CEST | Press release
New hybrid multi-cloud capabilities remove borders between on-premises and cloud operations NetApp® (NASDAQ: NTAP), the Intelligent Data Infrastructure company, today announced new hybrid multi-cloud capabilities with autonomous controls to maximize enterprise flexibility and efficiency for any workload. Enterprises can now more easily adopt modern data strategies across on-premises and cloud environments leveraging new capabilities for consistent operations that account for sovereignty, governance, and controlled consumption. As enterprise applications and AI workloads increasingly span on-premises environments, public clouds, sovereign regions, and emerging AI Factory architectures, organizations need more than infrastructure flexibility. They need a consistent operating model that can keep pace with machine-speed demand while meeting requirements for governance, resilience, efficiency, and jurisdictional control. Traditional manual administration, fragmented tooling, and disconnecte
