Ever wonder what happens when data crosses from one network to another? Lucas and Luna explore the hidden backbone of the internet: internet exchange points (IXPs). They zoom in on the Amsterdam Internet Exchange (AMS-IX), the world's largest IXP by connected networks. Lucas explains how IXPs reduce latency and cost compared to traditional peering, why they're critical for streaming and gaming, and how emerging markets are building their own to keep traffic local. Along the way, they discuss the rise of cloud-first IXPs and what that means for enterprise network design.
