The Telecommunications Service Providers Association of Kenya (TESPOK) has selected Nairobi-based East Africa Data Centre to host Kenya Internet Exchange Point (KIXP).
KIXP, the largest internet exchange point in East Africa, enables Kenyan ISPs to exchange traffic within the country without having to use multiple international hops.
After more than 10 years at its previous site, KIXP required additional data centre space to support its aim of becoming the regional Internet exchange point for East Africa.
