(I know little about AMS-IX and am still waiting for someone from there
to get back to me...)
My NA bandwidth right now is ~200Mbps and about half of that appears to
be EU destined. I'm opening an EU POP soon and am trying to figure out
what sort of value AMS-IX would give me.
Does it simply provide an easy way to privately connect to transit and
peers? Or can I also go crazy and peer with anyone who wants to peer
(like in the olden day!) ?
