KINX (Korea Internet Neutral eXchange) is a Seoul-based, publicly listed (KOSDAQ: 093320) provider that runs the country’s only Layer-2-based, carrier-neutral Internet Exchange and operates eight of its own data centers clustered in and around Seoul, in Gyeonggi-do province. Founded in 2000, KINX sells colocation, IX peering, CDN, and its own OpenStack-based public cloud (IXcloud, launched in 2012 as Korea’s first), plus AWS Direct Connect access as the sole colocation provider of that service in Korea. Its facilities include Dogok (its main hub), Gasan, two Sangam buildings, two Bundang buildings, Pyeongchon, and its newest site, Gwacheon IDC, a 10MW facility opened in October 2024. Beyond Korea, KINX extends its network reach via points-of-presence in Hong Kong and Los Angeles (One Wilshire) rather than through additional self-run data centers.
KINX operates as a cloud provider and colocation provider, with facilities at the following locations:

Common Questions
How many data centers does KINX operate?
KINX operates eight carrier-neutral data centers, all located in Seoul and neighboring Gyeonggi-do province: Dogok, Gasan, Sangam1, Sangam2, Bundang1, Bundang2, Pyeongchon, and the newest, Gwacheon IDC, which opened in October 2024.
Is KINX carrier-neutral?
Yes — KINX is described as operating the only Layer-2-based, carrier-neutral Internet Exchange in South Korea, and its data centers allow customers to freely choose among network providers rather than being locked into one.
Does KINX offer its own cloud service, or just colocation?
Both — alongside colocation, KINX operates IXcloud, an OpenStack-based public cloud service it launched commercially in September 2012, making it the first company to offer public cloud service in Korea.
Does KINX have facilities outside South Korea?
No — KINX's actual data centers are all in the Seoul/Gyeonggi-do area of South Korea; internationally it maintains network points-of-presence in Hong Kong and at One Wilshire in Los Angeles rather than operating additional full data centers abroad.
Is there evidence of AI/GPU-specific infrastructure at KINX facilities?
No specific, sourced evidence was found tying GPU clusters, liquid cooling, or an 'AI factory' designation to any individual KINX facility, so no AI-optimization claim is made for any of its sites.

A human decides whether each page is published, but individual facts — addresses, contact details, and whether a company operates in a given location — are not independently fact-checked by us. Where you see a “Verified” badge, it means multiple independent sources agreed, not that we personally confirmed it. Companies open, close, relocate, and change contact details without always updating public records, so treat everything here as a starting point, not a confirmed source.
