Shedding light on the partnership, Sanjay Bhutani, CBO of AdaniConneX, said,

“Aligning with our vision of building a 1GW data center platform, we're taking the required steps to build an interconnected digital ecosystem for content providers to deliver seamless services and enterprises to grow exponentially. With Extreme IX, we find an aligned partner to enable India’s digital growth with reliable and robust network connectivity as a key pillar.”

Adding further, Raunak Maheshwari, Executive Director of Extreme IX, said,

“In AdaniConneX, we have a strategic partner building an environmentally and socially conscious data center platform in India. We are confident that the scale of AdaniConneX, and the wide reach of ExtremeIX will further strengthen India’s peering and interconnection ecosystem. Setting up a new POP at the AdaniConneX Chennai 1 Data Center is another step in our journey of bolstering peering services in India.”
