２． Why Multifeed has selected the netXDC Inzai campus

In order to meet the needs of our customers for efficient and low-cost interconnection demands, Multifeed has decided to launch JPNAP Tokyo connection point service on the netXDC Inzai campus as partner of SCSK's interconnected ecosystem.

The Inzai area is a diluvial plateau consisting of a strong foundation, with no major active faults nearby, a distance of approximately 20 km from Tokyo Bay, and an extremely low risk of natural disasters such as earthquakes and flooding. In recent years, the importance of interconnections among Internet service providers has been increasing due to the spread of cloud services, faster access lines, and the expansion of network operations by service providers. By using multifeed IX connection services, SCSK enables efficient connection for customers, and contributes to improving connection quality and reducing costs. In addition, as a system integrator with extensive experience not only in data center services but also in system development, infrastructure construction, and operation for enterprises, SCSK will contribute to the sustainable enhancement of corporate value for service users.
