Equinix Data Centres, AWS Partnership, Customer Stories and more

Most cloud conversations ignore one simple truth. AI only moves as fast as your connectivity. At AWS re:Invent, I spoke to Ed Baichtal, Principal Engineer at Equinix, to talk about what actually sits underneath modern cloud and AI architectures!!!!A few takeaways from the conversation- Equinix operates more than 270 data centers worldwide and acts as the physical home for servers, networks, and cloud on ramps- Equinix is the largest AWS on-ramp provider, with native AWS connectivity built directly into its data centers- The Equinix Fabric Cloud Router is now available on the AWS Marketplace, making multi-cloud connectivity much simpler- Customers can virtually connect up to 25 Gbps to AWS across different regions without deploying physical hardware- AI workloads are pushing serious demand for higher throughput and more reliable connectivity between cloudsOver 3,000 customers are already connected through the Equinix Fabric, which means new connections can happen virtuallyOne customer moved massive volumes of data to AWS in under 30 days using the Fabric Cloud RouterLooking ahead, Equinix plans to introduce Fabric Intelligence in Q1 2026 to make multi-cloud and NeoCloud connectivity even smarterIf you are building AI or multi-cloud systems, this layer matters more than most people realize.#data #ai #awsreinvent #aws #agents #awspartners #agenticai #theravitshow
