Ensure dynamic and instant access to critical data
Data center interconnect (DCI) technology connects two or more data centers to exchange data seamlessly and also provides backup for redundancy. DCI enables enterprises to dynamically tap into both physical and virtual resources across numerous sites, and load-balance their network infrastructure as necessary.
Sify connects 50+ edge data centers pan India on a high-speed network to maximize reach and deliver a superior end-user experience.
Internet Exchange as-a-service offered by Sify gives access to multiple cloud providers, ISPs, CDNs, OTT players, social media networks, enterprises, and national and international telcos under a single umbrella to optimize and enhance network performance.

Service access and Internet Exchange
Internet Exchange (IX) as a service is a fully managed carrier-neutral service that enables you to interconnect with a multitude of networks directly, across different IXs in India and internationally.
IX as-a-service is specifically used by providers looking for network optimization, improving network performance and achieving low-latency with cost-effective interconnection. AMS-IX, Extreme-IX, DE-CIX, SP-IXP, and NiXi are hosted with Sify across India.
