The exchange also intends to set up Content Delivery Networks (CDNs)/Caches in regional IXPN POPs, provide VLAN services within Lagos, enable remote peering, and upgrade its links and switches to increase capacity, scalability, performance, and reduce latency.
These initiatives follow a series of milestones achieved in 2023, including the successful implementation of Netflix Open Connect Appliance (OCA) in Lagos and Abuja, aimed at improving Netflix content delivery and enhancing user experience. IXPN recorded a peak local Internet traffic of 570Gbps in 2023, with plans to reach 1 terabyte by the end of 2024, reflecting the consistent growth in internet traffic.
Furthermore, upgrades to the Abuja switch and Lagos Google Global Cache (GGC) servers were carried out in 2023 to increase backplane capacity and meet current capacity demands, demonstrating IXPN’s commitment to resilience, efficiency, and continuous improvement of its network infrastructure.
IXPN’s ambitious growth plans for 2024 underscore its commitment to facilitating seamless internet connectivity, fostering innovation, and supporting the evolving needs of its members and stakeholders in Nigeria’s digital ecosystem.
