A 20-Year Partnership
DataWeb and NL-ix Celebrate Milestones
Celebrating more than two decades of collaboration, DataWeb and NL-ix recently toasted to their enduring partnership with coffee and cake at the DataWeb office in Voorburg. This milestone marks a journey that began in 2005 when DataWeb ordered its inaugural Peering and Transit port, laying the foundation for a longstanding relationship.
Established in 1994, DataWeb B.V. stands as one of the Netherlands' oldest and most respected Business Internet Service Providers. With a steadfast commitment to delivering lightning-fast connections and unwavering reliability, DataWeb has earned the trust of a diverse clientele, including banks, schools, hospitals, and logistics operators, for whom downtime is simply not an option.
"At DataWeb, our approach is straightforward," explains Rico Wisman, Manager at DataWeb. "We're maybe the smallest of the big players in business connectivity, but we excel by focusing on what we do best: providing personalized service, delivering speed, and specializing solely in connections. It's a formula that works, and it's why our customers keep coming back."
The core of DataWeb's partnership with NL-ix dates back to their early days. NL-ix was among DataWeb's first commercial customers when they embarked on their journey together in 2005. Fast forward to 2024, and NL-ix remains a vital component of DataWeb's network infrastructure, enabling them to uphold their customer promise without compromise.
Our partnership with NL-ix runs deep, rooted in shared values and a matching culture. While both companies have grown substantially over the years, it's the human touch that sets NL-ix apart. Whether it's their exceptional communication or swift technical support, NL-ix remains one of our strongest allies.

With NL-ix's expansive network spanning over 100 datacenter locations, DataWeb can seamlessly connect customers from across the country to our hub at Nikhef."
Continuing the journey, Dataweb recently achieved a significant milestone by acquiring their first 100Gbps port, marking a new chapter in their collaboration with NL-ix. This milestone underscores DataWeb's commitment to building a future-proof network capable of delivering optimal services to its customers.
"Our partnership with NL-ix runs deep, rooted in shared values and a matching culture," adds Rico Wisman.
