AI-Ready Internet and Cloud Exchange in Stockholm, Sweden

AI-ready Internet and Cloud Exchange in Stockholm, Sweden

Exciting developments are unfolding across the global digital infrastructure landscape. DE-CIX has officially announced a major expansion in the Nordics with the launch of its first AI-ready Internet and Cloud Exchange in Stockholm, Sweden.

 

Scheduled to go live in September 2026, this advanced infrastructure is built from day one to handle data-intensive workloads, low-latency cloud interconnection, and high-performance AI applications.

 

This milestone is not just a win for the European ecosystem. It also reflects the same strategic blueprint being executed here in Southeast Asia, spearheaded by DE-CIX Malaysia.

How Stockholm and Kedah Are Empowering the Next Generation of AI Workloads

The expansion in Stockholm underscores a fundamental shift in global networking: the growing demand for AI-optimised architecture. Future-ready exchanges must bring interconnection closer to where
data-driven platforms scale.

 

This is the same strategic alignment driving the current momentum in Malaysia. DE-CIX Malaysia is expanding its footprint into Kedah, bringing high-performance interconnection capabilities to the ASEAN region.

  • AI-Ready Infrastructure: Designed to support data-intensive AI workloads and real-time computing environments.
  • Carrier-Neutral Ecosystems: Ensuring open, flexible, and robust interconnection options for enterprise networks, cloud service providers, and operators.
  • Advanced Cloud Exchanges: Optimising hybrid and multi-cloud architectures with secure, direct paths to international platforms.

 

By establishing future-ready nodes in strategic border locations, including the D8-1 facility in Kedah’s Delapan SBEZ, DE-CIX Malaysia is helping create a powerful digital bridge that mirrors the resilience and digital sovereignty principles being deployed globally.

Unlocking Borderless ASEAN Connectivity via Subsea Infrastructure

Unlocking borderless ASEAN connectivity via subsea infrastructure

Malaysia’s northern expansion is anchored by robust subsea and terrestrial infrastructure designed to optimise cross-border traffic corridors. Key to this network strategy is the Satun-Songkhla-Georgetown, Penang subsea cable landing infrastructure.

 

This gateway helps reduce transit costs and latency across the vital Thailand-Indochina-Malaysia-Singapore digital corridor. By combining dense subsea networks with local peering points, DE-CIX Malaysia helps eliminate unnecessary routing bottlenecks, ensuring that traffic remains localised where performance matters most while scaling efficiently whenever international reach is required.

 

The global digital economy is evolving rapidly. Whether in the heart of Scandinavia or the fast-growing corridors of Southeast Asia, the goal remains the same: building future-proof infrastructure that moves data with speed, security, and reliability.

 

Interconnect in Malaysia. Scale Across ASEAN. Connect Globally.
