PeeringDB

By Sune Christesen, Jul 20 2023

PeeringDB was originally created by Richard Steenbergen in 2004, but was since (in 2015) incorporated as a non-profit organization. The service is maintained by volunteers from the peering community.

The service is inteded to ease the process of finding networks to peer with, by making it easy to see which networks are available at which data centers (facilities) and internet exchanges.

The PeeringDB service covers:

• Networks
  Networks, identified by their AS numbers (Autonomous System Numbers).
• Exchanges
  Internet Exchange Points - both commercial and non-profit IXPs.
• Facilities
  Data centers, identified in the database as facilities.

We highly recommend using PeeringDB, if you operate a network and utilize peering.
