Carrier Exchange

Connectivity marketplace and circuit management. Discover providers, manage circuits, and streamline network procurement.

Getting Started

Carrier Exchange is the connectivity and network procurement platform. Discover providers, compare offerings, and manage circuits across facilities.

Use the provider directory to find connectivity providers and compare cross-connect, wavelength, and other service offerings. Request and order circuits through procurement workflows.

Track circuit inventory: endpoints, lifecycle, and costs. Circuit data can feed ComputeComplete for site planning and GridTwin for topology visualization.

Key Concepts

Provider directory
Discover and compare connectivity providers. Filter by service type, region, and facility.
Circuit management
Track circuits, endpoints, and lifecycle. Know what is installed, where, and when it renews.
Procurement workflows
Request, order, and manage connectivity services with approval and tracking.

How It Connects

Carrier Exchange connects to ComputeComplete for site-level connectivity planning and to Site Portal for tenant-facing circuit requests. Circuit data can feed GridTwin for topology visualization.

What It Is

Carrier Exchange is the connectivity and network procurement platform. It provides a marketplace for discovering connectivity providers, managing circuits, and streamlining the procurement of cross-connects, wavelengths, and other network services. Data center operators and tenants use Carrier Exchange to find providers, compare offerings, and track circuit lifecycle.

The platform supports circuit inventory, provider directories, and procurement workflows. It complements ComputeComplete for power and connectivity planning and integrates with facility and tenant workflows.

Why It Matters

Connectivity procurement is complex. Multiple providers, varying service types, and fragmented ordering processes create friction. Carrier Exchange centralizes discovery and management, reducing time-to-connect and improving visibility into circuit inventory and costs.
