Facility neutrality especially. If the IXP is inside a non-neutral DC, it and its peers are always under constant threat of being squeezed out or shutdown by any number of circumstances. If the co-lo business were separate from the facility business, it may be a better environment since the IXP could convince the facility to host it, which the co-lo business could then be attracted to. All depends on the circumstances and environment. wfms
