Data Center Space in Amsterdam

AMS-IX (Amsterdam Internet Exchange) is one of the world's largest internet exchange points by traffic volume, connecting over 800 networks. Colocation near AMS-IX provides unparalleled peering opportunities, reduced transit costs, and ultra-low latency to a vast number of networks across Europe and beyond. This density of connectivity is the primary reason Amsterdam became a top-tier data centre market.

The Amsterdam metropolitan area has imposed restrictions on new data centre construction due to power grid constraints and sustainability concerns. This moratorium has significantly tightened available supply, pushing vacancy rates upward while redirecting some demand to nearby markets like Schiphol-Rijk and Haarlem. Existing facilities with available capacity are increasingly valuable, and early engagement with providers is critical.

Amsterdam sits at the nexus of major submarine cable systems connecting Europe to North America, Africa, and Asia. Multiple cable landing stations in the Netherlands provide diverse, redundant international connectivity. This makes Amsterdam an ideal hub for global content delivery, cloud services, and any workload requiring high-bandwidth, low-latency connections to multiple continents.
