Hi All,
Welcome to another NZIX newsletter.
It’s been a busy few months across our industry. Just last month, many of our members attended NZNOG, the main annual industry event. NZIX had a strong presence there and you can read all about it in this newsletter item.
Our internet exchanges continue to grow. AKL-IX recently hit a peak of 766 Gbps thanks, once again, to Fortnite! We have exciting plans underway for CHC-IX in response to member demand. Read all about it here.
Last year, we held our first social event outside Auckland, in Christchurch. Around a dozen members and friends came along. Building on that, we held our first Wellington social this February. It was a great success, with more than 20 members attending and plenty of good conversation. Shaun has written a short recap, so be sure to check it out.
And speaking of events, now’s a good time to mention our upcoming milestone, the 10th anniversary of AKL-IX and NZIX as an organisation! We’ll be celebrating in style, so please save the date: Thursday 25 February 2026. We hope you’ll join us for the celebrations in central Auckland.
Cheers,
Dave,
Chair
