The Middle Eastern operator has also joined the DE-CIX Partner Program which enables it to become an official DE-CIX reseller.
“The massive capacity growth projections for the Middle East have prompted a rethink of the industry’s business model,” said Amr Eid, CCO at GBI.
“Today, GBI focusses on ensuring internet traffic is transported and managed across a reliable, diverse and secure network. That is why DE-CIX and UAE-IX are key elements to our strategy.”
In October this year, GBI became a partner of the London Internet Exchange (LINX).
