Strengthening Our Backbone: Private Peering Between Cologne and Japan Datacenters

We are delighted to share a major milestone in our global infrastructure strategy: the establishment of a dedicated private peering connection between our datacenters DE-COL-1 (Cologne, Germany) and JP-TOK-1 (Tokyo, Japan). With a remarkable capacity of 5 Tbit/s, this initiative represents a significant leap forward in our mission to deliver seamless, high‑performance connectivity across continents.

Low Latency and Reliability

This private peering link is designed to provide ultra low latency and highly reliable connectivity between Europe and Asia. By creating a direct private route between these two strategic regions, we are able to bypass public internet pathways, ensuring greater stability, enhanced security and optimized performance. This is particularly valuable for enterprises running mission critical workloads, global applications and services that demand uncompromising speed and dependability.

Benefits for Business Partners

For our business partners the advantages are clear. The new peering connection offers scalable bandwidth to meet growing data demands, while enabling smoother traffic flow and more efficient collaboration across regions. Whether supporting real time communications, powering cloud‑based services or enabling next generation digital platforms, this infrastructure investment ensures that partners can operate with confidence and agility.

Enhanced Customer Experience

Our customers will experience the benefits directly through faster application performance, improved content delivery and more resilient service experiences. By reducing latency and strengthening reliability, we are making it easier for customers to innovate, expand globally and deliver exceptional digital experiences to their own users.

Aligning with Our Vision

This achievement is more than a technical upgrade, it is a reflection of our broader vision. We are committed to building an infrastructure that makes global connectivity seamless, resilient and effortless. Every step we take is guided by the principle of simplifying the digital journey for our customers, so they can focus on growth and innovation while we provide the backbone that makes it possible.

Looking Ahead

The establishment of this 5 Tbit/s private peering between DE-COL-1 and JP-TOK-1 is a powerful example of how we are aligning our investments with the evolving needs of the digital economy. It underscores our dedication to creating a network that is not only faster and stronger, but also designed to make things easier for our customers and partners worldwide.
