Peeringdb provides a list of registered peers in a DC that has an IX. Great for looking at where to peer.
PeeringDB lists many datacenters without any IXP. The difference seems to be that PeeringDB data is provided by the networks themselves rather than third parties. Having recently asked a datacenter about what providers were present in their facilities and receiving an answer similar to "Who would you like to be there?", I much prefer PeeringDB's model of ensuring data completeness and correctness. -- Niels.
