InterNetX GmbH was founded in 1998 in Regensburg, Germany. The company provides Internet business solutions, domain sales, cloud, and dedicated servers, as well as customized server solutions for resellers and providers. The company manages over 4 million domains, 8 million SSL certificates, and more than 3 million physical servers with a focus on professional users in the worldwide marketplace.
InterNetX is one of the largest DENIC members and accredited with Verisign, Afilias, PIR, Neustar and nearly all other registries. The company offers its customers more than 350 ccTLDs and all generic top-level domains (gTLDs), including all new domain extensions (new gTLDs). Through its subsidiary PSI-USA, it is an official ICANN registrar. InterNetX has sponsored ICANN Meetings at the Silver level.
Since its foundation, InterNetX has been operating several data centers. A new TIER 3 data center was put into operation in November 2006 in Munich. The total bandwidth of the data center in Munich was increased to 50 Gbit/s in 2009. In the same year, the whole data center was certified according to ISO-27001. The network expansion and development of a proprietary DarkFiber Ring allowed not only for an increased redundancy, but also created the technological foundation for connecting a total bandwidth of several hundred gigabits at the location in Munich. InterNetX is a member of the „Réseaux IP Européens“ (RIPE), an organization responsible for the international IP namespace und has been offering its customers native IPv6 for years.[1]
