On December 3, 2023, starting at 1am (PST/GMT-8), Epic pushed an update to their popular multiplayer game Fortnite. At VANIX, this resulted in our normal evening traffic “valley” becoming a peak, with over 100 Gbps of additional traffic all Sunday morning.
This is a good example of what an IX can do: make a large amount of capacity available in a regionally resilient way, improving the Internet experience for everyone throughout the province. Whether it is a game update, or routing around a natural disaster, VANIX has the capacity to handle large volumes of participant Internet traffic.
To build on this regional value, VANIX is pleased to announce its new 2024 pricing, including new multiple 100G port services.
